I Need to Travel...

Sometimes, just going to Target is enough of a vacation for me! LOL

But if I *could* (and we may) I would like to go to Italy. And Greece.

I'm not really counting my impending, someday, delayed-gratification summer, alone, beachfront with a trunk full of books.

Ireland, Italy, Greece, Hawaii, Fiji, Spain, Egypt, Austrailia, the list is practically endless. I've been almost nowhere & yearn to see the world, taste the food, see the people, smell the smells & just EXPERIENCE different places in general.

When I need a virtual vacation, I go here and read about travelling to far away places. I really like the travel tales and solo travel advice.

Right now I wish I could go to Maine. I'd go hiking in Acadia National Park and eat some lobster at one of those roadside stands where they steam the lobster with frest seawater.

Corsica
Spain
Madagascar
The Greek Isles.
Scotland

And yep, like Denise P. said, just going to Target, BY MYSELF, is a 'vacation.'
LOL

Nancy W's answer was going to be my answer!! We'd love to do that in Maine and travel all through New England.

I stayed at a hostel in Germany a few years ago. Every other day, a bus stopped at the hostel. It was a company called Busabout. Apparently you pay one price and can get off or on the bus anywhere; the bus just has a schedule for stops and you need to be there to ride. Hostel stays are included. So...if you like Berlin, you might get off there and stay a week, then get back on and head to Amsterdam. Maybe you don't like Amsterdam much, so you only stay two days before getting back on the bus. The buses travel throughout Europe. You decide how long you want to stay in each place. Here's a link: http://www.busabout.com/

To answer your question, I'd love to trek the Australian outback, or the Amazon. Or South Africa. For a less wild trip, I fancy visiting Italy someday. Right now, hubby and I are considering Belize for vacation next year.

Right now I would love to go to Egypt - but only because my husband is currently deployed there! :)

Other than that, I would like to go to Ireland with my husband. He is Irish & hasn't been there in a loooooong time (other than being in an airport waiting for a connecting flight). I would love to see the land.

I'm not too good with speaking other languages, so I'd have to go somewhere where the people speak fluent English! LOL Hubby's the multilingual, not me!

just remember, you take your head along with you. serenity comes from the inside.

meanwhile, happy travels.

Scotland. I'm reading Diana Gabaldon's Outlander series (trying to finish it) and she paints an amazing picture of the landscape and people.

I'd go to Ireland, Scottland, Russia or Germany. I'd be taking pictures galore and just absorbing the different experiences all those places would have to offer.

I would love to go to India & Thailand. India for sure, then i'd come back, a very fat mama :)

I would go to Greece, Italy, Spain and Portugal, all by cruise ship. If you are far enough out to see, your cell phones don't work. I could relax in the sun with no one to bother me.

This time of the year I would like to go to Alaska, or northern Minnesota (I have heard that up by Grand Marais it is beautiful) and maybe head up to Canada......oh I know I can dream.....

Aloooooha! You can find me on the beach in Hawaii! (But not the big island... that's a little volcanic and barren wasteland-ish for me. Maybe Kauai or Maui!)

And if I ever got sick of that (not likely), I'd go back to the South of France.

Ahhhhh... Okay, better log off and get back to work! LOL

Egypt, maybe a cruise down the Nile

If I could go anywhere I would have to choose between Greece and Ireland.

I would go to the countries that don't cost too much and are still fairly pristine without too many tourists. Croatia, Sloe vakia, Slovenia, Czech Rep. Hungary
but in Hungary it's hard for English speakers. Only young people know English.
I would go to the mountains and the beaches. In Czech Rep concerts don't cost too much and I'd go every night. I'd tour the glass factories but not likely buy much because it is too costly. I'd go see the old Jewish quarter which is one of the best preserved in Europe.
I'd go to concerts in Hungary too as they do not cost too much. In Budapest I'd spend the whole day at the baths the name of which begins with G. I'd go to see their national congress house. It is sooo beautiful.
And I'd take some tours around the city and go on to see the countryside.
Budapest is one of the most beautiful cities in all of Europe and so is Prague.
Slovakia has a national park worth visiting.
Most tourist bureaus are very helpful.
