Bucket List: Dream Destinations / myLot

Mandaluyong City, Philippines

September 25, 2023 1:03am CST

I'm nearly 40 (I'm currently 37) and I still haven't visited a lot of places I really wanted to visit when I was younger. I'm from the Philippines so our passports, compared to passports of first-world countries, are very limited in terms of travelling to visa-free countries. Some Schengen countries have really stringent visa requirements and I've gotten declined several times in the past. So far, I've been to Singapore, Taiwan, South Korea, and fairly recently, the United Kingdom. I really loved our UK trip because we got to stay in Cambridge, England and also had a weekend trip to Edinburgh, Scotland. That was a really really good trip. I am looking forward to a Japan trip we've planned with friends for next year but it's still a plan for now. I had a chance of going to Germany last March, I've had an approved visa and all that, but sadly, it got cancelled. Anyway, I'd like to know more about you guys. What places are you still planning of going to and when do you plan to visit them?

What are some great destinations in Oregon? What are some secret spots that aren't really visited much by tourists but you'd personally recommend? To be honest, I haven't visited a lot of islands here in the Philippines. I really should try travelling locally first, come to think of it. Haha

@inkyuboz There are lots of beaches, waterfalls and covered bridges that we have visited. There is a dinosaur park and a zoo that you can drive through. We have been to all of those places. Now I want to go to some other places.

I don’t really have good enough health to travel out of my country (United States) anymore. I’ve been to 38 of 50 of the U.S. states, plus Mexico, New Zealand, and Australia. I’m pretty content with that, although if I were healthy, I would want to visit Vienna, Austria. I saw a movie based there as a child, and it seemed like a special place.

I've been around a lot of the US and a little ways into Mexico but that's all the traveling I've really wanted to do.

We're getting too old to go too far afield but we hope to do more touring in Western Australia next year. We have a caravan so we don't have to stay at hotels.

We have traveled to many countries around the world, but we do not travel anymore. What I really missed and I would like to visit is Japan.
