I am so envious. Even as I write this entry, this couple is traveling to the ends of the earth. But tomorrow, I get to go to…Tacoma, Washington. Holla.
In light of yesterday’s intense post and conversation, here’s a simple question and hopefully, many folks, including the ”quiet” blog readers will chime in:
If you could travel to any TWO places in the world, where would you go. [And sorry for this late edit]…a short sentence to explain “Why.”
Be specific and remember, only two places. Why two? Because it’ll make you think.
The picture above: Patagonia [Chile].
Filed under: travel
England
Japan
(does it have to be places in the world? because I’d love to see Mars)
Iceland
New Zealand
(two is really hard: especially in South Georgia during pollen season…)
hell
heaven
(in that order)
Brand new to this blog, good read, though i tend to stay away from heavily commented comment section…just too much for me to sift through…I do have some thoughts…maybe I should just send them through email…sure you get enough of those eh?…I would go first to scotland…second I would go to Alaska
Let me think here. Picking just two is really really tough.
New Zealand
Kenya
bora bora and western europe.
Greece and Israel.
This is too easy… a trick question, maybe?
The UK
Turkey
Indonesia (because it’s home but I never get to go there, and I never tire of it)
Switzerland (lifelong dream… the Alps… European culture…. *sigh*)
Australia
Ireland
But, alas, I too get to travel across the bridge to lovely Tacoma tomorrow. Ah, well. At least the company will be good.
India
UK
Chile
Jerusalem
Kŭmgangsan mtns – North Korea
Jerusalem – Israel
Fiji
Athens
mae sot, thailand
cape town, south africa
Napoli,
Jakarta
Be careful what you wish for: Marilyn and I lived in Anchorage, Alaska for 5 years in the 1970s. A local radio station had a prize for a contest – anywhere Alaska Airlines flew. The excited winner immediately shouted “Fairbanks!” heheheh
Alaska ’cause my husband’s going to be there. Thailand because a lot of people I love and work with are there.
No trick questions here.
Every couple weeks, I’d like to host an entry like this because it gives us a little more glimpse into a person and I’m excited to see a community – of sorts – forming via this blog.
My two answers:
North Korea – because my parents were born there as well as learning how I can be an advocate for the poverty and oppression in that country.
Phuket, Thailand, – really…any isolated, quiet, and warm beach. Please let me know if you own one.
Jack Danger Canty… Jakarta??? I mean, Indonesia is on my list, but I’m totally shocked to see Jakarta on yours. I’d love to hear your reasons!
The Vatican
Ayers Rock
I’ve always wanted to moon the pope and Ayers Rock seems like the best place to make a quick getaway before that pesky Swiss Army gets their hands on me.
Cuba, maybe it’s the rebel in me, but I hear it is amazing to see all of the mint-condition cars.
China, because I would like to go somewhere where things are much different than what I am used to seeing.
ok – cuba and antarctica
cigars and penguins
An Island in Southeast Thailand – Koh Phangan
Italy – travel all through the country
Zanzabar… because I hear its way more beautiful then any thai beach that i’ve been too..
Italy… because i love food and espresso…
Ireland – back to my roots; my wife went without me
Trunk Bay, St. John – http://www.stjohnbeachguide.com/Trunk%20Bay%20Overlook.htm
I was there on my honeymoon. It’s my happy place – and it may be that my whole life is geared towards getting back there. Or I’ve been watching too much LOST. But I’m gonna get back there…
I like Capt. Ralph’s – all I can think of is penguins smoking cigars. I’ll fly to see that.
Ecuador – haven’t been back since we moved to the U.S. when I was ten
The Highlands and Islands of Scotland – wild, beautiful, music, Gaelic
Ok- the second choice will change for me daily… only two, in this whole amazing planet? – that’s a tough list!
Scotland – apparently i my family is (partly) from there
Italy – so much history
Hong Kong – see where my parents came from/back to my roots
Baghdad – to be completely out of my element, and get some perspective
