Is there some place that you've always wanted to visit? If so when do you plan to do it?

I have a deal with a friend in Australia that when we're getting old and frail, we will go on a cruise to the South Pole (or at least the Antartica, if all the ice have melted the Pole is so high it'll still be on dry land I think) and drink funny drinks while we watch the penguins jump off ice-bergs :-) If there's any ice-bergs left, maybe we have to be happy with penguins hopping off cliffs ...

I wish to go to Canada and I will do that in June and July 2010. I have already purchased my flights from London to Halifax in Nova Scotia. I have always wanted to go to South America. Well, there are many destinations there on my travel wish list. I want to go to Cartagena in Colombia, Machu Picchu in Peru and Rio De Janeiro in Brazil. If I have enough money I hope to visit one of those in 2011. I know that in 2012 I hope to visit the Philippines. Really it is challenging to predict when I will be able to visit all the destinations on my travel wish list.
In the past I have been very successful with my traveling to different countries. The three destinations I most wished to go to were Sydney, the Seychelles and Cape Town. I went to Sydney in 1993, to the Seychelles in 2004 and Cape Town in 2009.

There are so many places that I want to visit. The Atlantic maritime provinces of Canads, Austrailia, and New Zealand. I think though that the next place on my list is Europe. I want to visit Italy, France, Ireland, England, Scotland and Wales on my first trip. I'm also very interested in Croatia, particularly the coast which I understand is fabulous. Hopefully that trip will take place about mid September.

I really wanted to go to japan. I like to see the people there and I really like to shop items that are unique and couldn't be bought in my country. Japan has creative minds and it makes me so curious what new things could they make :D
I am still a student so probably If I could be a successful architect, I will go visit Japan :D

i have always wanted to go to UK... not just england but the whole of uk. i particularly want to go to wales. i don't know why but it seems that there's something drawing me to that place. i worked for UK's directory assistance before... with the aims of learning more about wales.
hmm... now that u asked, probably i'll give it some thought as to when i could start saving up so i can visit wales.

Well I am Welsh, and I must say its nice to see people say that. I must admit, there are some bad sides to Wales, as there are too all countries around the world I think you would agree. But, as a porud 19 year old welshman, I am very protective of my nationality, as Im sure most are,and beleive that Wales is steeped in history, with the many castles, kings (Hnedry the VII (I think the 7th, King of England was actually Welsh), the celtic tribes essentially originated from Wales but are closely linked to Ireland and Soctland. But Wales has many great sights, views and ofcourse Famous People....
Some being:
Dame Shirley Bassey
Sir Tom Jones
Phil Campbell (Motorhead)
Roger Glover (Deep Purple)
Stereophonics (band)
Anthony Hopkins
Richard Burton
These are just a few famous people who happen to be Welsh. Its always great to see welsh people become world famous.
Anyway, if you ever get to see Wales, Id reccommend it, although prefereably in the May-June area, thats when the on average best weather is.
