So maybe I would like to travel across United States and Canada. Or travel across Africa. Africa is a good option too As I said I want to travel everywhere, and without any worries, so yeah the condition @partyon Noona mentioned was an ideal for me +2 1 3 Link to post Share on other sites

One third of them came back with a tropical disease (can't remember what it was). I think Africa would be the last place where I would want to go.... Did they like Egypt though? I really wanna see the pyramids. 560 1 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Well Chingu, I think before going to places where the environment and climate is much different from your place, it is better to consult a Doctor. Sometimes you need to get vaccinated for certain diseases. In India we have a famous phrase (don't know if there is a similar one in English), "Change in water". So we believe change in water, does cause some disease to some people. But yeah, I more into the cold places with less sunlight, so while the African countries are in my list, especially Egypt thanks to its history, I would first try out Japan/SK and the other Asian countries or Europe in Winter. +2 1 3 Link to post Share on other sites

Nodame 10,864 Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 HI @mirmz No wonder it was always so quiet. LOL. @partyon Yes USA Is a HUGE country. I have visited about 35 states myself and still many to visit. I have not seen Yellowstone and Alaska. Cool you visited us here a lot! Yes, I like traveling. i find when I travel I like a place a lot due to the people. So I have warm memories of Italy, Netherlands, UK, Belgium, due to knowing actual friends. I find all places have their charms and lovely vistas. So hard to pin point one place. Glog, Gluewien and mulled wine loved when backpacking during the Holiday season in the Christmas Markets in Switzerland, Austria and Germany were lovely. Then 2 yrs ago in Denmark and Sweden too---just cosy and great way to not mind the cold. Street food --local eats are must have. Loved all the sandwiches, crepes, sausages, pastries, drinks, dishes while traveling. Learned I loved the yogurt in Europe better (now live Skyr) but before loved Mullers (read that 2015 left USA market TT) Great art--I love museums so Louvre, Prado, Uffizi, Victoria & Albert, Kunsthistorisches Museum Van Gogh Museum etc To browse and enjoy. Or the great palaces or house tours too while I am at it. Then sampling the food by going to the supermarkets and farmer's markets. I love a good afternoon tea. I went to Versailles on a horrible rainy day so did not get to enjoy walking around the gorgeous gardens as a result Amalfi Coast for a destination wedding was gorgeous. Fond memories of Firenzi (Florence) compact, great art and food as well as in Sienna in the town square enjoying the sunset eating deliciously sweet strawberries. Good night!!!! @joccu Like many, not using my passport has been HARD. I had to ax last year a trip to UK and France due to the Pandemic. But that wedding was rescheduled and I cannot attend for the new date. @Sleepy Owl Oh cool ok I have to figure out how to watch S3. I had my sister in charge of getting it for me to watch. +2 1 5 Link to post Share on other sites

Good Night @partyon Noona, @corey +2 1 1 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites
