I AM NOT BIG ON TRAVELING. So if I go anywhere, its usually for a reason, almost always the same reason lol. But I only have 2 must-goes— FL/AU. —I’ve been to Georgia (Possible 2nd Home; Great Shopping/Food, Better Pay, Scenery and Theme Parks) and North Carolina (Raleigh; Charlotte; Possible 2nd home; Beaches, Theme Parks, Better Pay, Snowy Mountains, Tram, Whitewater Rafting, NASCAR, Cityscape) but I dislike the lack of casinos in both states plus NC. —I’ve also been to Texas (Houston Church Trip; Would Return for Dallas, Food, and Theme Parks), Vegas (Would Return for Casinos, Hotels, Pools, Concerts, Food, and Shopping), Louisiana (Would Only Return for Food Festivals, Casinos and Theme Park), Alabama (Would Only Return for Concerts), and Ohio (Would Only Return for Theme Parks).—I absolutely must go to Florida (Orlando/Tampa/Miami/Hollywood; Food, Beaches, Theme Parks, Hotels, and Casinos) and Australia (Gold Coast/Brisbane/WhitSundays; Beaches, Food, Accents, Theme Parks, Casinos, Surfing; Surfer Dudes lol). If i travel anywhere, I prefer it be within North America, but Australia in the one place I’ll extend my limits for.—I’m debating onTennesee (Nashville; Music/Concerts), New Jersey (Atlantic City; Pier, Casinos, and Accents), New York (NYC; Broadway Shows, Food, Cityscapes and Shopping), Colorado (Aspen; Skiing and Lofts), Canada (Possibly Alberta, Toronto, Quebec, Montreal, or Vancouver; Scenery and Casinos), and Bahamas (Paradise Island; Atlantis/Aquaventure, Casinos, Hotels, and Beaches).#FeelFreeToList#WhyWouldYouGoThere
What specifically attracts you to the places that you explored or want to travel to?
Canada: I went to visit a lover. I would go again to visit lovers (Quebecois), or to experience the aurora borealis, or to have a wilderness experience in Banff with the hot springs and snow, or to sail the western coastline.
Jamaica : I went to sail, but I enjoyed the food, marijuana, music, and snorkeling (Trinidad &) Tobago: I was there with a lover to do some sailing
Mexico : I've been several times, for a day in a border town, but longer trips I spent touring and one major plus was scuba diving the cenotes of the Yucatan. Panama : part of a backpacking/shoestring travel trip. I enjoyed exploring the cloud forest, partying on the islands of Bocas, and meeting other travelers. Costa Rica: part of above trip, I partied for New Years with some English kids I met in Panama, enjoyed local cocaine and messing around with some American girls in the place next to us. Nicaragua: part of above trip, I came with no expectations, but I loved the volcanos and spent some time on a fazenda/hostel, made friends, got treatment for a parasite I picked up in Panama Guatemala : I relaxed at a lake, met a cool French expat who let me stay for free at his place, met lots of travelers, did some art and just enjoyed my time. Honduras, El Salvador, Belize : again, no expectations, just enjoyed meeting locals. Peru, Bolivia : a friend of mine really wanted to do ayahuasca but was nervous about traveling alone and how to get around, so he paid for my ticket to have me go with him and find him a witch doctor. We had a good time and ended up in Brazil, where I have been many times. On previous occasions I spent a lot of my time in Brazil practicing juijitsu and chasing women. Ireland, Portugal: this was a honeymoon trip where we spent 3-4 weeks just traveling about, enjoying the different aspects of these countries (more Portugal) Spain: eating and visits to tourist sites mostly Morocco, Egypt : visiting ruins/temples, shopping or just wandering souks, talking with locals, meeting other travelers. Israel : lived there, taught juijistu, practiced my violin a lot, went shopping and got romantically involved with a couple Israeli women. Yemen: just exploring Sudan, Eritrea, Ethiopia ~ spent a couple weeks sailing up the Red Sea and diving off these coastlines, only really spent much time on land in Eritrea, restocking and visiting Asmara. Maldives: enjoyed company of the locals, some diving Thailand: diving, shopping, bar scene, flirting/hooking up with other travelers Cambodia : amazing history, ruins Vietnam : scuba diving mostly, some side trips
That was places I've been. As for places I'd like to go: Cuba: my Brazilian friend moved here, and now she has a baby and husband. I'd like to visit her, see how socialism is working (or not) for them, and enjoy some culture with no real expectations. Croatia: I would like to scuba dive and sail here, as well as see what they have in terms of food or other entertainment, and decide if Croatian women are attractive. Eastern Europe: I would like to travel through here, maybe on bicycle. I like the older architecture, see what history they have, and I find women from here quite attractive physically, but I don't know what attitudes are like so I am curious.
I should add, the bicycle trip I have in mind starts in Istanbul, then through Europe (southerly route) and ending the terrestrial part in Spain. From there I would go to the Canary Islands, and sail across the Atlantic to Caribbean. Just enjoying whatever adventures and people life brings along the way.
I also have a sailing trip that is a major life goal. I even have a rough map of it drawn but I can't find it right now. Basically starting on the west coast of USA, making a circle that goes down Central America, to Ecuador (Galapagos), then heads west through the South Pacific (places like Fiji, Tahiti, Cook Islands, Vanuatu, Palau, Nauru, Phoenix Islands, etc) then up the western side of the Pacific (Guam, Philippines, Japan) and then starts coming around north and east via the Aleutian Islands to Alaska mainland, then down the western coast of Canada and back to the west coast of USA. No real "mission statement" other than to enjoy whatever happens, do some diving, make some friends, try new foods and learn along the way.
On reflection, I think I'm pretty hedonistic. I enjoy romance, food, sights, and taking part in physical adventures like hikes, sports, massage, etc.
Quebec looked beautiful but i started to change my mind on it because isn't it mainly french speaking? And i won't be learning that anytime soon 🤣 Okay MJ is one thing but not you doing coke too 💀 Was it your honeymoon?
No, the coke was on the Central America trip before I met my (now ex) wife. The kids I was hanging with were all tossing in $20 to get a gram each for New Year's Eve, so I pitched as well. I think the last time before that I did coke was about ten years, and it's been over 5 years since. Around the same for MJ, I don't really use drugs regularly. Though I have been microdosing shrooms 2-5 times a week lately, it really is a micro dose and I don't get high or a noticeable effect from it.
I have done some traveling, but would definitely want to explore more places all over the world. I live in Canada and have traveled through many parts of BC, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba and a little in Ontario and Quebec. I from BC and enjoy traveling through different places throughout the province because I love being near the ocean, lakes, rivers, mountains, trees and all nature. Being from Canada, I find there's many great places to eat and foods to try.
I'm really drawn to places with amazing food, this being said practically everywhere has their very own foods and meals unique to those certain place. Yeah, It's usually good food, water, places rich with history, culture and traditions. I would love to go to Greece, Italy, Ireland, England, Scotland, France, Spain. . . most European countries. I've been to Mexico and I love the beaches and all the places to see and do things. I've always wanted to to Hawaii too, there's just so many things to check out.
I feel like I could go on and on, there's so many places I'd like to travel to. I used to say there was hardly anywhere in the world I wouldn't want to go, there definitely some better to avoid at certain times being an outsider to their country.
I really love theme packs as well. I've been to Disneyland, Universal Studios, Knott's Berry Farm and the PNE (Canadian thing in Summer in Vancouver). Every part of the world seems to have their own versions of Disneyland/world and Harry Potter themed places as well. I've to check some of those out.
Too many places to choose from, lol Australia, New Zealand, Japan, South Korea, Thailand, Costa Rica, Dubai . . .
What attracts me most? History, Nature, culture, music, people and food 😁. The trips i made and why: Gran Canaria, volcano and it was amazing to stand on the edg of 2 km high volcano plus their little island has a massive history. Egypt: piramyds and the nile and the red sea. Austeria to visit a friend and went to a museum and MOZART is a part of it, and hey! So much rich history. Czechia: just to party 🤣 same thing Slovakia and absinthe is some strong aerious shit. I have been to norway, denmark, finland, Estonia and Latvia because we are basicly neighbours, seriously. Poland because why the hell not, wonderful cities, music, history and amazing food. Italy: roma, milano and Venice because of history, buildings, fashion, football, more history and food. Ukrain: kyiv omg the churches are amazing, the city is/was amazing, nice peopls, of course ww2 history and chernobyl (didn't go near it though) but looked at it from far far far away 🤣. The united states for a wonderdul reunion with my cousins and my uncle in Cali and a trip to Vegas, couldn't catch so much history but still wonderdul sites and i had to go to some places like Venice beach, staples center, hollywood, San Diego/el cajon, glendale, and more. It's fun and i will keep doimg it because! Why the hell not. I work hard and i want to have fun 😁.
I can explain why! We live i Europe, so all other european countries are pretty close which leads to pretty cheap ticket prices. And traveling to other continents! Europe is very central (in the middle) so you still can find pretty well prices , but Australia and New Zealand are pretty expensive for everyone no matter what 🤷♂️. Bonus! I used to work as airplane cleaner in Aralnda Airport/Stockholm so we could get staff discounts and i still know people that work in Aelanda Airport so they tell me when there is discounts on tickets for none-airport workers and viola 😁
I have never been to any other country... but within my country the places n cities I've visited id mention which ones i liked n why
1. Moen jo Daro... it is ruins of old civiliztion that was 4000 to 5000 years back n its a lot to know and see n all that really amazes u
2. Karachi... it is biggest city of my country n world's 8th largest city... super busy n full of things to try n explore n full of opputunities n i was born n brought up there so i connect in that way to it too
3. Murree... it is city over the hills n mountains n rain is everyday thing there n snow too in winter... thats is so beautiful tbh... i like it for these reasons n also that in our side of country we dont have snow at all so thats why... i love natural beauty of all types almost
The place i wana visit in my country is Kashmir cuz that is even next level natural beauty n famous for that internationally
The countries i wana visit is Greece for beauty... Brazil for its variety of culture... India for many reasons like they are our neighbour country and we have so so so much similarities in culture, foods, mindsetsn vehicles etc and many of us Pakistanis grow uo watching more or less of bollywood n Indian youtube now so we connect to India in a very different way... i wana see Taj Mahal (one of seven wonders of world)... i wana see Mumbai city mainly (also some other cities) cuz i feel like it is like Karachi kinda city and Mumbai is discussed n showed so much in their movies so yea... i have few friends there too whom i wana meet n share gifts, food of here with them which is not there and try their street food n traditional food which we dont have here
Women, admittedly lol. Also cheap food, cheap vacations, nature and the urge of self-determinism. I've mostly been around Central/Eastern Europe, Greece, Spain and Canada. I take advantage of having foreign friends who let me crash at their place/show me around.
I also have friends who travel for the sake of sightseeing, but I can't handle traveling with them too much. They asked me to go with them to Israel and Vietnam as well, but I was like "nahh" that's too much. For me traveling is more of a hedonistic pursuit.
Only if they have a nice place lol. I have friends in Canmore who make like 7k a month each, I stayed there for two weeks with some other friends. I'm not paying $200 a night to go see Banff and the Rockies, those resort towns are major tourist traps.
But if it's like Romania or rural Spain.. yeah I'm not staying with them lol.
Lol, that and the hotels are much more affordable over here. You can get a decent place for as little as 50/night in coastal Spain, or rent an Airbnb for even less. Definitely not worth it to share.
Usually the challenge of it, I hike and climb mountains so I Usually go to places where the mountains can be and feel quite intimidating.
It makes me feel very much alive and I also find that it forces you to be in charge of your life and every decision you make. It can be pretty dangerous up there! Especially if you don't respect where you are and navigate mindlessly... like life!
I'm going to Nepal next year to trek to Mt Everest Base Camp! It will probably be one of the hardest things I've done in my life so far!
There are many things I'd like to see in America, if I ever managed to conquer my fear of flying and visited it, but the main one is in my profile picture - Goddess Melissa, meeting her in person, if possible. :D Other than her, there are also: NASCAR, Bounty Hole (don't mistake it with Glory Hole), Burnout Championship, Drift, real drag racing on a quarter mile drag strip, classic American muscles (almost none of those in my country, so they're a sight to me, esp. 1969 Charger R/T and 1969 Camaro SS), Crown Victoria - the legendary police car, seeing Alan Jackson live - assuming he's still singing... That's all that comes to mind for the moment.
My friends and I drove from Quebec to New Orleans. I've seen the whole East Coast. I loved New Orleans for the food.. personally my favourite place in the USA for food completely different then anywhere else. The biggest thing I hate about travelling is coming back home especially by plane packing everything up and the plane ride back is so depressing lol
I would like to to Toyko Japan or for like a week or maybe a month but not live there. I just like all the cool skyscrapers they have and see the awesome street racing cars they got. I also heard they got really nice massage parlors and American money is worth more in Japan. I be kinda be cool that you can pick me out of a crowd of 5ft 9in Asians walking around. I also like to find me a Asian princess only if it for awhile.
Ohh , interesting question. Well I've been to Goa (India) for the Sunburn Music Festival , Ladakh (India) for the Lakes and the Bike Rides , Niagra Falls for the Waterfall and Maldives for the beautiful ocean. I want to travel to Dubai for the Burj Khalifa and Sky Diving , Kuala Lumpur for Base Jumping , Amsterdam for the ADE , Australia for the Beaches and Japan for the Culture and the Cool Vibes.
I have a certain fondness for offbeat places: Moldova, Albania (though no longer really considered offbeat), Georgia (country), Armenia, Cambodia, etc.
First, it highly unlikely I will run into other American tourists. Honestly, if I wanted to vacation with Americans, I'd just stay just here with the other 340 million of us. There is also a bit of bragging rights for filling in odd places on my travel map. It's also a case of "visit while you can." I visited Ukraine in 2012. Ten years later it appears highly unlikely that such a visit would be possible. Next year, trips are in planned for South America, Antartica and the Falkland Islands. Let me know when/if you ever make it to the Orlando area. I'll buy you lunch.
I would love to be able to see more of South America, Europe, Australia, Greece, Italy, etc. Really the only places I wouldn't like to go would be places that it's unsafe. I love to see new places, scenery, people, cultures.
Well obviously not everywhere oh, just like in the US there are dangerous spots and safe spots. But I've been to Mexico and Brazil and I'd love to see more about and other countries.
I'm fascinated by abandoned things especially military (I am after all a guy) huge complexes built as stateof the art, now reducing themselves to rubble. Makes my... Mouth water😃
I think you gotta look at how much time and $ you have. Usually I travel to meet friends and family and the rest is a bonus. I usually see nature sites, sites of peculiar interests or oddities. Every city usually has " best food " of something so if it's not gonna break the bank I take a look. But I have noticed I don't usually like going out of the way to see anything lol
Generally, the beautiful nature as I love hiking. Also, the fact that I can speak the language may play a role. I speak Dutch, English, French and German. Nice cities can also be important.
I'm not the traveling type, but if I do travel, it's usually its because the area has something I like in it that I can't have at home, or something I intend to bring home.
Most of the places I'd like to go however would require a plane or boat trip, and learning a new language, neither of which I'm willing to do.
I’ve been to 7 countries but I need a travel partner before going to Australia and at least 2 weeks off for there , leaving here in the winter while it’s their summer would be best. Maybe when things calm down in the world I might travel again but I still don’t have a anyone to travel with
Yeah. You should really check it out. It's got four theme parks, a ton of great hotels a shopping area, a bunch of bars, great restaurants that are well beyond normal theme park food... Really amazing place.
The types of people in some places attract me most really. Food is a big one. Environments and wonders of the Earth. I'd want to explore a lot personally wherever I'd go and get a decent sense of life there before I leave. Rather swing from vines into some water as you see in movies and stuff. Having sex in every place possible around the world is high key a goal I'd love to achieve. But overall I'm not focussed all on that even for a vacation but if I find the opportunities.
