Well, I’ve officially signed up for postaweek 2011, so here’s the first topic!
List three countries places you’d like to visit, and why you want to go.
I don’t travel a lot, but I LOVE it every time I get to go far away from home. Here’s my top three countries I’d like to visit in the near future (not in any particular order)
#1: Australia
I’ve never been to the Southern Hemisphere. Australia would be my favorite destination to go, especially during the winter. I detest the cold in Seattle, and it’s warm in Australia. There’s miles of sandy beaches, the air is cleaner, and the locals still speak English there (woohoo!) I would go there to sample the city life and experience another culture on the opposite side of the globe.
#2: France
Having learned quite a bit of French, I might as well go out and use what I’ve learned. I would love to experience the culture there as well as the food, however expensive that might be 🙂 If I go there, I would look forward to walking through the historic streets and going in circles around L’Arc de Triomphe.
#3: New York, New York
Besides being so good they had to name it twice, New York offers so much to do. There’s the Madison Square garden, Central Park, the Statue of Liberty, Carnegie Hall, Times Square, and mountains of skyscrapers that I’d like to take a glimpse out of the top floors of. I certainly would not live there (traffic drives me crazy, no pun intended) but being one of the most diverse cities in the United States, New York is a top pick for me.
What about you? Any places you would like to visit? Perhaps you could make a suggestion for me. Leave a comment below, and Happy New Year!
New York – my most heart touching journey in my life …

I’m from Australia and agree with your choice of New York: it sounds vibrant and exciting.
