I don't have anything concrete planned, but I would like to go to Bosnia and Herzogovina and Israel this year. I also spend a lot of time daydreaming about a month-long train trip, but who knows when or if that can happen.
You should definitely go to Israel. All the hoopla you hear on the news is exactly that. My husband and I went two years ago and did not encounter a single problem. The food was a new experience, full of flavors I had never tasted. The religious experience walking through the historical streets of Jerusalem and Nazareth was surreal.
