I forgot Scotland and Pompeii, Italy. I saw a movie about it where a volcano erupts killing hundreds of people. There bodies are still perserved there.

I've been fortunate enough to travel a lot, some of the most interesting places I've visited (in my opinion) are:

Jerusalem (it really is an amazing city, I can really understand why it's considered to be a holy city by three religions! And it is just incredibly beautiful) and the rest of Israel (the Dead Sea etc.),

Egypt,
a small village called Sidi Bou Said in Tunisia (everything - and I mean everything there is blue and white or one of those colours)
London
Krakow, Poland
Copenhagen, Denmark (my favourite city in Scandinavia by far)
Croatia
Madrid, Spain
Prague, Czech Republic
And the western most point of Algarve, Portugal (forgot what it is called, but its where Europe ends basically)

I'd love to go to

NYC again (I've been there as a child, but I dont remember much, so I'd love to go again)
China (several places, including the bigger cities of course, as well as Wolong- where they have a center for panda bears)
Japan (mostly Tokyo, but I'd love to travel around there as well)
Argentina
Chile

and South Africa (or any place in Africa where I can go on a safari, really!)

When I was three to when I was five, we lived in England.

We lived on Kwajalein (an island part of the Marshall Islands in the middle of the South Pacific for six years).

Living there made it easy for us to travel, so we've been to:

Hawaii, France, England, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Fiji and Phonpei.

(During one excursion, we stopped in Japan for an hour to switch planes.)

When we moved back to Massachusetts, we spent on Spring Break in Spain.


When I was in college, I studied in London the fall semester of my junior year.

After college, my parents took me on a trip to St. Maarten.

I'd love to go back to those places so I can really appreciate them, and any excuse to go back to London is a good one.

I'd also love to see Rome.
