Day 18: "Leaving on a jet plane..."

[mousme]

curtana asked me to talk about the places I would like to visit, or my dream travel destination.

This is going to be difficult, because I want to go to ALL THE PLACES. No, seriously, if money was no object, I would spend a lot of time travelling.

One of my dreams is to visit every single province in Canada. Although I love travelling in other countries, part of me really wants to know my own country inside and out as well. I've been to all of the Maritime provinces as well as Ontario and British Columbia, but I've never been to Alberta, Saskatchewan or Manitoba, nor have I visited any of the Territories. The latter especially are particularly expensive to travel to, alas. Canada is a beautiful country, though, and it seems a shame that I haven't explored it more. I haven't even scraped the surface when it comes to Quebec and Ontario, either. I've barely seen a fraction of the whole country, and I often feel like I'm missing out.

Likely due to my mother's influence, I have a list of cities in Europe I want to visit. I've always wanted to go to Prague because I hear it's absolutely beautiful. Although I've already been to Rome, I am dying to go back there as well. I could list pretty much every large city in Europe here, so I'll refrain from doing that. You're welcome. ;)

I've never been to the UK, so that's definitely on my list, as is Australia, New Zealand, a whole bunch of countries in South and Central America. Oh, and also Hawaii. I know that it's technically in the United States, but I can't help but think of it as its own separate entity. I have a friend who lives there, and I think I could probably wheedle my way into staying on her couch for a week or so. ;)

For whatever reason, I am not quite as keen to go to Asia. While I certainly wouldn't say no to a trip to China or Japan or Vietnam or anywhere else if the opportunity presented itself, I don't have the same burning desire to visit those countries as I do for countries in Europe or America.

In conclusion, this is not a very interesting post because mostly I want to go everywhere and see all the things and meet all the people, which makes the scope of my post way too broad to get into any kind of detail. Um, sorry?
