Buenos Aires, for being the only time I left Brazil and for the tasty empanadas.
Salem, MA is one of my favorite places to be. I used to go there so often that the locals thought I was a local. I planned to “retire” (whatever the millennial equivalent is) there.
Nowadays it’s no longer safe to visit home
I visited threadbow in Australia 3 years ago, it’s one of Australia’s few snow fields,
I come from the opposite side of the country and had never seen snow until 3 years ago.
Snowboarding was so much fun and I wish I could go back…
Costa Rica! The biodiversity and abundance of nature is astoundingly beautiful.
I’d like to go back to London. 3 days wasn’t enough and there’s still so much I want to see there.
I’d love to visit Oman, Seychelles, and Ukraine again.
Croatia (which was part of Yugoslavia when we went!), New York, and Mauritius. All spectacular in their own way, and I would love to visit them again.
I went on a trip to Oslo and Bergen last summer. I’d love to go back; they’re great places for mixing hiking and city exploration.
Montserrat in the Caribbean. Visited multiple times as a kid after the volcano as I had family working there in regeneration projects. Beautiful place, beautiful people, wouldove to see it again as an adult and see how it’s changed now.
We went on a highly illegal and potentially dangerous trip (if the volcano went off again, by the time we heard it, it would be too late to escape) to see the old airport from where you can see directly up the volcano and the path the pyroclastic flow took and covered the terminal building which was half buried in the dust.
There were wild horses roaming and nature was already starting to reclaim the place so the intervening 30 years probably have accelerated that and I’d love to see it.
When I was 18 (don’t ask how many years ago), I went on a road trip with my girlfriend, across the country and back. We stopped at a gas station and there was a girl around our age with Native American heritage sitting on the floor while sewing moccasins. She sold me a pair for 175 dollars. I know this because the price tag is a sticker on the inside of the tongue that I’ve never bothered to take off.
I wear them frequently, mostly around the house. Very comfortable. Best-fitting footwear I own. The soles have never worn through and they’ve needed not even one stitch in repairs. But since they’re getting in the ballpark of two decades old, I worry they will wear out someday. I would love to go back to that area and spend more time than a quick stop at the gas station. Partly to find out who else around there is helping to keep these elements of native cultures alive. And hopefully I would also find my way into owning a backup pair of some really good moccasins.
I have the time and money, but it’s so painful to get there, but I wouldn’t mind going back to Bali again, for the… 30th time?
Hawaii definitely. But not while the current U.S. political situation is ongoing.
Hanauma Bay. My favourite uncle loved that place. He taught my cousin to swim there, in the ocean water, with the fish and turtles.
We want to go back because we miss him. Mom misses him dearly after his death. But we can’t go there while it’s crazy, and Mom’s on the decline herself. I think we don’t have a viable window to get there, but we’re hoping.
Northern California, but I’m not visiting the US again until there has been a revolution.
I’d love to go and live in Lyon, France. I was there for about a month and the people were cool, lots of local events, shops, scenery. The food was amazing. It was a bit pricey for someone who makes money in Japanese Yen, but it was totally worth it.
France. Specifically, a little town called Ardres. J’ai passé des vacances là-bas. C’était incroyable. Nous avons loué un gîte à la campagne. Je retournerais si je pouvais.
J’adore la France.
J’ai passé des vacances dans Ardres aussi, quand j’ai onze ans avec mon école, de très jolis souvenirs de navigation sur les lacs
Les lacs d’Ardres sont très beaux. La ville est très conviviale.
Je parle français parce que j’aimerais retourner en France un de ces jours. Si je pratique chaque jour.
