I have never been outside the United States. I would LOVE to go to Greece! I would love to see the ruins of an ancient civilization! My second choice would be Italy, because of the American Express card ad about a member wanting authentic Italian food and ending up in Italy. I would like some authentic Italian food also! We have Carabas here, but it would be nice to have the "real" thing! I bet the Italian men are HOT too! (and the women ;). Anyway, I was just wondering........
-
I bet the Italian men are HOT too! (and the women .
I'm rapidly falling for you, miss betty, based on comments just like that one!
I'll have to think on your original question, but I just had to say that part right away.
Here's to ya, hon.
;)
-
You will fit right in here with us ;D
I want to visit mexico because i have a hot friend begging me to visit him *wink wink*
but i would love to go to brazil, greece, japan, anywhere but this damn island lol
-
I would love to go back to Moscow, i lived there a year and it was crazy!! :)
Plus russian people are so hot!!!! ;) (and i like snow too)
Other places i want to visit.... Israel (to visit all christian places i have heard about), Japan (to practice my japanese and learn more about their culture), France (just to practice my French and see the Eiffel Tower), Canada (i had already been there, and it is a very nice place, would love to visit again). Ahh i also want to visit NYC, i have heard so many things about Big Apple... to visit it is a must!!
-
I would love to go to Scotland. Where the men are men and the sheep damn well know it. There are a lot of places in the US that I have never been and things I've never seen or done.
-
Australia and NZ. For more reasons than I could probably list, but a few...
Beautiful countries
On the other side of the globe from me, so I would also get the experience of traveling over much of the Earth- even if just to see it from above.
A few stellar people I have met here are in those countries.
I'd like to go cage diving with Great White Sharks.
Perhaps to visit Jan's place and pet some goats and alpacas.
Australian men in speedos.
The list goes on and on...
-
Betty, I just went to Greece and Turkey last year... it was great. Make sure you do a bit of Turkey too as the Roman ruins in Ephesus are a must see and easy to fit in when going to places like Rhodes. (click on my profile here and you can access my travel pictures)
Otherwise I'd really like to go to either India or Cambodia, the latter to see Angkor Wat. Oh, and I've always wanted to go to Brazil for the saunas and the hefty logs.
-
I'd like to go cage diving with Great White Sharks.
Ah, Timberley it's not too different from posting in Orf Torpic. But seriously, cage diving? What are you, some sort of poofter? Real Aussie MenTM do it sans cage.

-
Ft Wayne sounds nice, but the cost of living is high.
-
After careful consideration, I will settle for poofter. ;)
Cage, please! (At least for my first dive.)

i know you were being sarcastic....but i rather choke on my own vomit than visit that place....from what ive heard its awful and i know there are awful people there (im sure no everyone but im sure there are some :o)
1 more year until i graduate...when i graduate im going to have my mom donate some frequent flyer miles to me so i can backback through europe or south america for a month :-) just because i want to see as much as i can with 5 pairs of clothes :-)
-
Sicily,
New York,
Lord Howe Island,
India
Antarctica, and
the Mississippi swamplands :P
-
why antartica? just out of curiosity?
-
Antarctica = the last great frontier. 300-500 metre high ice shelves, lots of great wildlife, the roaring 40's huge swells, a sense of adventure. gotta get there before the crowds. and, its the only continent i've never visited.
New York - self explanatory. greatest metropolis on earth
Sicily - all my childhood mates were from Sicily. Incredible history - Romans, Greeks and Persians. Food, hot men, Italian culture.
Lord Howe Island - world heritage listed little island in the Pacific. snorkelling, walking and relaxing.
Mississippi swamplands - dirty sex with an inbred swampboy :P
-
LOL all sound interesting but ill pass on antartica....im sure its pretty but im used to no colder than 60 degree weather so ill pass BRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!
LOL...i actually had the chace to go to alaska which i wouldnt pass up on again because its VERY pretty but so fucking COLD....but i think im going to move from this tropical island hell-hole to somewhere in the northern US so i better get used to the cold

Babe, I remember how you carried on when it dropped to 7 degrees C in Sydney a couple of years ago. How do you reckon you'd go in -60?
;D
MtD
-
i know what you mean about the cold. i've never seen a frost, let alone snow, but ya rug up when you go that far south. I'd be whinging and bitching about it the whole time, don't you worry. You should see me carry on when it gets as low as 60 here ;)
Matty you beat me to it.
-
I'd go to Antarctica just to squish that stupid fucking penguin from that appalling film.
MtD
-
crap 7 degrees C is what in F.... (5/9)(Farenheit-32) or something like that.....im tooo tired to try and figure it out....
Damn english system...there are only 2 countries who use it...and although i learned the metric system taking chemistry and stuff i never know how to "compare"....tell me how many KG you weigh and i dont know in LBS even though i think 2.2 if the conversion :o
Id pick antartica over hunington though ;D

It's about 44 degrees F, my Rican Beauty. ;)

-
WOW if he was bitching about 44 degrees he would never make it in Antartica.....i lived 1/2 a winter in maryland and bitched when it was snowing for a day.....
I liked the snow but hated the cold....not to mention i tried to drive in the snow and almost killed myself (who knew antilock breaks actually had a purpose....i didnt have any!!!) :-*
-
I'd love to go to Argentina, particularly Buenos Aires.
St Petersburg is another place I'd like to cross off my list.
Would like to see more of Canada, have never been to Montreal.
And New Zealand. I hate long flights, but I know it would be worth it.
-
I think the following locations have very clean air, abundant oxygen & respect for nature: Amazon rain forest! (while it's still there), Hawaii, U.S. Pacific Northwest, Vancouver, NZ
Oh I think this is kind of like eco-tourism
I would go $%*# everywhere if I had the $$$
-
One of my top destinations is Paris. I struggled through French in college and would like to at least try to use it. Also I want to experience the food and architecture.
Another place I want to see is Scotland. It looks like a beautiful place, my mother's family is from there and I love the way the people talk.
-
Where: Australia/New Zealand
Why: To check out he natural beauty and animals. Not cities.
-
I think another place I would like to go would be Amsterdam! It seems like I could do any-frickin thing I wanted to and it would be legal! ;)
-
Dominican Republic, Cuba, Rio de Janiero, London, Paris, Madrid, Istanbul, Costa Rica--all are on my short list.
I'll make ito one of them in December with my frequent flier miles--just have to decide...
-
Betty I too would love to go to Greece (the Greek Islands too) and Italy. And yes I understand the Italian men are HOT
unfortunately for us...they don't care much for Americans. I'd love to see France, Ireland and England and Venice too. Hell
I'd love to have a world tour....Imagine touching the Wailing Wall in Jerusaleum...Riding a bike atop the Great Wall of China
and
so many many other places.......... :o.
-
Summers - Vancouver
Winters - Palm Spring
Year Round - Austin
Fantasy - New Zealand
-
The way I am feeling today I want to find the edge of the world and jump off.
-
The last I heard the world is round so that might be kind of hard.... :o
but i hope you feel better soon and feel like seeing the world instead of jumping off of it ;D :-*
-
I wanna go back to Puerto Rico....I loved it there and liked tapping into my heritage....Jamaica/Virign Islands..Just because I would like to smoke some of their green and to be able to see the pretty clear water..You noticed I said see, not trying to swim with the sharks or stingrays...And finally Japan/China because I have always loved their culture....Would love to wear a kimono...
-
Hey DanJ- Would you like to share about why you feel like jumping? I'm just.......here to listen. ;)
-
I think it's related to his other thread about losing his HIV doctor.
-
Danny ,
If you jump, I wll be there to cath you.
I know exactly where the end of the wolrd is :-[
Now that I am out of the black hole, please you don't go there.
The sun shines upon you and you are loved.
By many more then you know.
Love you
Hermie :-*

BettyTacy.. Aren't you quitting cigarettes? If you smoke 2 packs a day and save that money instead of buying ciggies. In about 6 months you can afford to go to any where your heart desires...except maybe Antarctica...that could be problematic. When I quit smoking and drinking I realized I was spending more than my mortgage every month on smokes and booze!
This brings up a question for the Americans... how many of you don't have a passport and why the heck not? There's a whole world out there!
I have friends that take the same trips every year to Vegas, Florida, or The Bahama's, they make comments like, "I wish I could travel like you do" The thing is...they spend more money on their same trip to the same place year in and year out, than we do going somewhere new. When I ask, they don't have a passport.
-
Melbourne, Australia!!!
And it ain't for the footy games either ;-)
*sigh*

Well, today I don't want to jump off the edge, cause I'm feeling a little better than yesterday. So I am in a better frame of mind to really think about this so here goes...
1. Austin, Texas- A very sweet friend lives there & I would absolutely love to come visit him. ( I hope he reads this)
2. New South Wales Australia I want to meet MtD IN PERSON!
3 New Zealand I want to see Jan's farm and all those animals.
4. Winston Salem N.C. I want to visit Lisa
5. Puerto Rico, I have always wanted to go there. I don't know why. It has always seemed like a place that I would enjoy.
6. The boothill of Missouri, yeah it isn't that farfrom here but Blixer lives there & I want to meet him.
-
I'd like to go horse riding on the beautiful beaches of Chile :)
Milker.
-
Lots of folks wanting to go to Australia and New Zealand. Huummm. An idea setting in my brain. A group trip to see the Great Dragon, Annie & her now famous husband & goats & alpacas, and the land down under. What would that run? About 3 or 4 grand?

Mike
P.S. In two years from today you could save $2960 for a dream destination if you just put $4.00 aside everyday. (The cost of a pack of cigarettes.)

When I travel i like to go to just a few places and stay for longish periods, living as much like a native as possible.
I've always promised myself a trip to Central Europe: Berlin, Prague, Budapest. On a seperate trip I'd love to spend time in St Petersburg, Stockholm and Copenhagen.
And I'd love to show Joseph the spots I love best in Barcelona and Paris. Barcelona's my favorite place on Earth.
And if i could find the money, time and right mix of medications to hazard the flight, I'd spend several months with Matty in NSW.

I'd like to have a 3nd visit to Luis Albert Reyes Bourgos in Santo Domingo
-
I want to go to Portugal to a place called the end of the world - I think it is the southern most point in Europe. A dear friend passed earlier this year and that is where he wanted some of his ashes spread - and I want to visit it and see why he thought it was so special and to remember a special friend whom I miss.

A tough one.....
1. Antartica; because it's remote, wild and beautiful
2. Australia; because every time I hear an Australian accent I get weak in the knees. I don't know why, but I hear a man speak with that accent and I want to do anything and everything that he want. ;)
In reality -- I love to travel anywhere and everywhere.

Hey Moffie:
I would SO love to be there right now! With the type of day I've had, your photos look like a place I'd like to escape to! BEAUTIFUL! ;D
Peace-
Betty

Right there with you, Moffie.
Have always wanted to go to Africa...and it's finally going to happen. I'm deep in the throes of planning a 3-week safari to Kenya and Tanzania for January. It's going to be a looooong 8 months of anticipation.
Big goal is all 7 continents...2 more to go.
