I had the opportunity to tavel to countries in different parts of the world. Every country, no doubt, has it's unique cultural backgrounds and life-styles. It is definitely very educational too to see new places. I find Thailand in Southeast Asia very fascinating. The country is known as the "Land of Smiles". Yes, indeed, the people are very friendly, and one is surrounded with smiles wherever one goes. If you have travelled too, which country do you find fascinating ?

That is great! I haven't had the chance to go out of the country and i think i will never. But if i would have the chance i would love to go to Europe. Like Italy, Greece, Switzerland and New Zealand. I am fascinated by these countries, it seems that living there is so peaceful and quite. I love the snow capped alps, the romantic gondola rides, the beautiful houses on the hills in Greece. But as i am very sure that is very impossible for me, then i would try and see all the beautiful tourists spots we have here in my country. We do have a lot of fascinating spots here that need to be explored and enjoyed. I hope that you have the time to go back here and enjoy these places. Have a nice day, my friend!

Have a nice day my dear friend !

That's a very hard question. I find China, Bolivia, and most of Africa very interesting and would like to visit all of those places one day. They have this crazy poetry fellowship where they give you $50,000 and all you have to do is agree to write about the experience and not come back to North America for 365 days (1 year). When I have a better plan, I plan to apply for this fellowship. My only problem will be getting a PCA who has a year completely free to accompany me. Perhaps I will recruit someone who is writing their senior thesis. They can spend their junior year with me on this crazy adventure and then use it as thesis material. I live near several very liberal colleges so this might work out for me.

I love New York. I'm just absolutely in love with it, it's so amazing!
I could live there. I live in the UK at the moment, and I just love everything about New York. The hustle & bustle of the streets, the fact that everythings always open..
Just everything about it really!

I have traveled widely, I was basically 'on the road' for about 10 years. Knapsack, sleeping bag, tent, you know the drill. The country I was most fascinated with was Greece, and that's why I spent 3 years there. I have been to a many places which were far more exotic, but I'm still dreaming of going back one day to Greece and built my house there.

The county that I have found most fascinating is Samoa in the South Pacific. I went to Robert Louis Stevenson's house, an author, now it is a museum. I met two local people up by his grave and I thought that they were interesting. I traveled by sea to an the second largest island and I met a village chief. I saw fruit bats and a Polynesian pyramid in the rain forest. It was wonderful to go back to the largest island and swim in waterfall. I loved going to a tiny island and stayed there in a thatched roof fale, a traditional building. I found prices reasonable and the lifestyle close to perfect. Samoa is my favorite country and I adored my time that I spent there on my way home from New Zealand.

If you like snow, Canada is one of the countries. Come in the middle of winter, and you can enjoy all the snow.
Have a nice day !

I haven't been out of my country yet.If I have the opportunity to travel,I will go to Maldivian.
I saw the picture from my college,who had been to Maldivian.It was very beautiful .The country is known as the 'The last paradise on earth'.'Yes,I am very enjoy it 'my college said.
So,I am very yearning for there.At the same time,I think Thailand is also a good place to travel.
If I have a lot of time and enough money,I will go to see the world.It is a very plesant dreams,but it depends on 'if'.
Anyway,good luck to you,my friend,thanks for your sharing.

I have only been to Canada but I have always wanted to go to London and Tuscany. London for the history and i love hearing English accents. And with Tuscany, it would be the scenery and the people and the food.

I find Philippines fascinating. Almost every places in the country plays a role in history, and has its own story to gain freedom. There are lots of historical places you can visit, the beautiful beaches and two of the sever wonders of the ancient world is there. But to travel to other countries to discover is culture and cool features are quite interesting too. Discovering new lands is really fascinating.
