My ex-oppa!

But yeah, he was definitely scouting in Mr. Queen - both in the club and outside the club.

Don't worry chingu, you might find a new oppa in that club too!

 

Tagging @Lmangla sweetie because she will be (the only one? lol) interested in this.

Here is traditional Mongolian throat singing - a father and a daughter performing together.

 

The instrument is called a Tovshuur and the string is often made from horse hair (or intestines if I remember correctly).

 

The instrument the daughter is playing is actually made from sheep ankle bones. I remember playing a local version of Yatzy in a ger (local name for yurt) using these kind of sheep bones.

Favorite travel destinations? Please share your tips with the rest of us.

Berchtesgadener Land (Bayern, Germany) That place stole my heart and haven't returned it yet 

Also I absolutely love traveling to China, tried to go every year before the pandemic (thanks, Covid19  ). Sightseeing,  food and the whole vibe - fantastic . 

 

And certainly Paris ))). No comments, just they say one either loves it or hates it))).

6.      Dune bashing (4x4 jeep adventure on sand dunes) in UAE - see oppa/noona scream and offer your hand as comfort- Ahn Bo Hyun oppa because he has a big jeep kind of car that can be used for the adventure and he seems to be a sporty person. His He Lives Alone videos tell me so.

7.      Lapland - experience Northern Lights & husky safaries, go to a sauna and swim in an icy lake - fingers crossed no one gets hypothermia... Lee Jong-suk oppa , he has that suave look.  

8.      Go diving in the Great Barrier Reef - fight a shark together –NGM oppa. He has a razor sharp brain , he’ll cut those sharks into pieces with his laser beam eyes.

10.  Backpack in South East Asia - experience local buses, hostels, street food - share oppa/noona with mosquitoes! CEW because his cold hard stare is enough to freeze those pesky mosquitoes on their tracks.  He looks great with backpacks and in black. (My Id is Gangnan Beauty)

13.  Ride a hot air balloon in Cappadocia, Turkey - perfect place to get engaged.... *winks at oppa*- Jang Hyuk oppa. (He can be such a charmer… and because he’s my destiny)

17.  Be Crazy Rich Asians in Singapore - deluxe life with shopping, all the gossip of being seen (make sure to tip off Dispatch in advance)-  Kim Jung-hyun because he was a King in his past life and he knows how to deal with ‘Dispatch’ by now

18.  Arcades and video games in Tokyo - 'cause oppa/noona should make sure he wins a stuffed toy for you - or at least a fake watch. Siwon, he seems to be a fun guy. (She’s pretty)

19.  Let's face it - you need to kidnap oppa/noona in order to get him/her to go on a dream trip with you. Yes is actually true for the above to come true.

Wait. In any of these dream destination scenarios RM could still become a dad....???

 

 

Or is there something special about Vegas?

I would visit the Pyramids in Egypt.  Has anyone ridden a camel?  Has anyone watched Death on the Nile, the new one with Kenneth Branagh?

Absolutely no to hot air balloons!  I crashed in one in New Mexico.

[willenette]

*** When winter comes because I know that during this season my vacation will start soon, I usually sit at home and thinking about some dream places to go. I know we sure are. Every day we wake up thinking about distant dream destinations in the South Pacific, heading back to Africa for a safari, or even just going on a road trip to Alaska. Now, travel comes back. A little fact I love is that simply the act of planning travel puts us in the same psychological happy place as being at a destination. Since Jordan is still in my bucket list, I would love to go there. For sure, I will have an exciting experience going there. Jordan, by all means, is a total package for tourists and deserves a place on every traveler’s dream bucket list. I guess there is something for all types of tourists there. Petra, of course, is a must-visit in Jordan.  OR – I want to go to Cambodia, too. I still haven’t gone there.  I yearn for temple adventures.

I would go around and try all the food and everything. This sounds just perfect for me!

@CarolynH  yes, I've ridden a camel - good, that they pad the camel a bit so, it didn't sore on the backside. Because of the pad I found it quite comfortable! It was huge fun. Leaning backwards and forwards when they stand up takes some getting used to but once on the move they are pretty comfortable although some people complained that their swaying gait made them feel seasick. I did have a terrific holiday during that time, something quite magical riding along in the desert. Ye, I've watched Death on the Nile. It's just that I didn't really enjoy the movie. There were lots of scenes with over acting. It's quite tedious to watch. No humor. no suspense, either. Really none at all. It's really below average movie. I tried watching this since I've watched Kenneth Branagh's adaptation of Murder on the Orient Express.

@the_sweetroad  no matter if you are the type that likes to gamble, enjoy LAS and if you just like to sight-see and learn about new parts of the country, Las Vegas is an opportunity that is not to be missed. There’s so much to see and do that it makes the perfect trip for a weekend or even a whole week. Honestly, what I love going there is you will find all the biggest store names, luxury brands, outlets, and expos where you can find unique items to take back home with you that are uniquely Vegas.   

[MayanEcho]

Thanks for tagging @partyon 

 

I like the mountains, so Andes for me. 

 

Though I live in the sandpit where tourists can do dune bashing and camel rides, more likely than not that I'd be in coastal trip, in level 124 viewing deck, or watching dancing fountains. 

 

Noona or oppa, I like going out with someone who likes to walk, hahaha! 

 

@sadthe1st when you mentioned lumpy oppa, this is the "Lumpy" I thought about, LOL!

• Yes....you should visit Pyramids in Egypt, one of the 7 wonders of the world that we shouldn't miss. I joined the tour many years ago, the package was including the River Nile cruise. We even had a night for tourists to put up an Egyptian Costume at the cruise party - what a memorable fun tour for us. No regret.
• Yes for Camel ride - but not too enjoyable for me.
• I had experienced one hot air balloon at New Zealand, and I love it. The only pity was the sky weather wasn't that clear during that time.
• I watched "Death on the Nile" movie, i would say it's boring, no suspense thriller at all. Don't waste time
• I recommend you to watch a new fantastic movie The Outfit (2022) - There is no stacking of big-name, special effects and dazzling skills, pure good shots and good stories, a masterpiece of simple old-school essence. It's been a long time since I saw a movie like this that didn't feel like a waste of time after watching it. The scenes that are not hidden in the waves, the story of the assassination, the surprises are constantly, once again shocking at the end, interesting story, a high rating movie too.

Both great places! I highly recommend them. Wadi Rum in Jordan is also a highlight. And in Cambodia you wanna visit both Siem Reap and Phnom Penh! I also did a cruise down the Mekong Delta towards Vietnam.

 

@lebeaucouple I'm so jealous you've had a chance to visit the Great Pyramids. It's still on my bucket list.

Ooh, me too! I also like hiking, so I would take my oppa with me to hike in a national park or the mountains.

 

I need to pick an oppa who is fit and in good shape!  Hmm.... Who would that be?

 

Joo Won oppa 50% looks like he's in great shape, so I will pick him!

 

Oppa!  Let's go!

@partyon  thanks dear for these places. This will be noted. This Wadi Rum, is this the Valley of the Moon?   

[partyon]

@willenette Yes, Wadi Rum is the Valley of the Moon (but I've only ever heard of it being referred to as "Wadi Rum" - had to google what "Valley of the Moon" was).

 

Wadi Rum is really cool. The Martian was e.g. filmed there because it's supposed to look like Mars. Also Star Wars was filmed there.

 

 

 

[agenth]

I will go to all these destinations (all the ones I selected) WITH OR WITHOUT OPPA.

 

Even shy people with travel buddy / oppa will bloom ~ look everywhere around you as you walk and you can talk about the things you see ~  no awkward pauses (except during breaks lol).

 

In any case, I am scared of diving. But I still want to do Great Barrier Reef. In fact going to Australia has been a lifetime goal for me as it's the end of the world for me, ever since I was a child. Now I thought this might be perfect destination with Oppa  

 

 

Oppa help me!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for the tips! When was the last time you were there? I totally want to go one day. The Ocean's 11 movies highlighted the beauty and nostalgia of Vegas again.

Annyeong! Well, would love to travel to South Korea with my family (we're just 3 ) and do all the things that I see in dramas (especially the sleepover in the spa! )
