Re: Places You'd Like to Visit
I have holidayed many times in Greece, though not for some time now.I did learn enough Greek to read a menu, and to chat to people a little (though it's drained from my brain due to disuse now).
Poros, where I spent my honeymoon, is one of my favourite places on the planet. I've also been to Crete, Rhodes, Simi and Cyprus, plus a little time in Athens.
It's usual (though not ,I find, so often here in the US) for people to dislike the place where they live: I guess when you you just pass through you tend to see the best of a place.
I've always liked where I lived, even when I lived in Basildon. Maybe I'm easily pleased. Oh, except Ipswich. Total dump.

Re: Places You'd Like to Visit
My favourite thing about greece was the smell, Everywhere you went it seemed the air was full of the smell of good fresh garlic frying in good-quality Olive Oil.
Re: Places You'd Like to Visit
Ok that should be a reason. But to take a taxi from the airport to go somewhere you will have to pay 50 Euros when they understand that you are tourist. Then in Athens you will die from heat and you won't be able to breathe because of the pollution. If you go to a cafe or a restaurant it will cost you a fortune. Athens is a stupid city.muy_thaiguy wrote:What if I want to see the Parthenon? Or, what's left of it anyways.

Re: Places You'd Like to Visit
I'd like to go to Iceland, New Zealand, Madagascar, Corsica, probably just about anywhere where they're not shooting each other.
But I've got whole new continent here I've hardly started (and another to the south of it).
In a coupla days I'm going to Canada, which I've not done before (though Toronto is only just outside the US)

Re: Places You'd Like to Visit
Hm...anywhere outside of America to be honest. I went to Canada for a week once, but that frankly doesn't count. Anywhere in Europe would be pretty cool.

Re: Places You'd Like to Visit
Lets see...
Ireland (never actually been there despite part of my family living there for several hundred years)
Southern Italy (never been further south than Venice, which was amazing in itself)
More of Germany (again, only ever touched down the side)
Denmark (dont know why, just do.)
Austria
New Zealand
More of USA (only one visit to philadelphia so far)
India (for somthing different, again, my family lived there for a time)
One interesting thing: I live in England, But I'd been to Scotland, France, Belgium, Holland, Luxembourg and Germany before I'd ever Visited Wales. (not that it isnt a nice place)

Also, Belgium is a tad bit boring. Weren't it for their frites and beer I wouldn't know why you'd want to go there. (Though Antwerp is nice.)

Oh yes, the chocolate is pretty awesome. I went to a chocolate-museum there and damn that was some awesome stuff.

Re: Places You'd Like to Visit
I quite liked Belgium. Me and my brother went on a road trip through northern France and Flanders a few years back. We went to Ypres to visit the battlefields, then on to Bruges (pretty but a bit chocolate box), Ghent and then finished off in Antwerp dancing to techno in a disused multistorey car park. Great beer and friendly people.
As for where I'd like to go
New York
Cuba
Costa Rica
Argentina
Scottish Highlands
Iceland
