Default Where in the world do you want to go?

my parents worked for the airlines industry so i've flown for free most of my life (but not anymore ). i've only been to Japan, Taiwan (which doesn't really count since i was born there), England, Holland, and Canada (again, doesn't really count as a foreign country ).

where would you like to go if you had 6 months to spare?

if i had 6 months, i would like to go to China and see how capitalism has transformed the communists.

Really depends on what you like, but some of the best trips i've taken where:

-> Milan, Modena (Ferrari factory), Florence, Tuscany, Rome

-> London, Paris, Southern France

-> Costa Rica

-> Southern Spain (andulusia) on Motorcycle

-> Swiss Alps

I've never been but would like to get to:

Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Mainland China, Venice, Northern Spain, Portugal, etc.

Well, right now I'd kind of like to go home.

Given 6 months though.

I'd like to go and see Australia. Never been and really want to go. 6 months would allow me a pretty good "walkabout" I'd think.

If not Aus, then I'd be a big flake and go where I always go... Hawaii. Nothing relaxes me like the Big Island.

So mingster, since you're out of work you're going to flood the forum with irrelevant (if not irreverent) threads like this?

Actually, 6 months in Europe, as long as it included prime seats at the Monaco Grand Prix, would be perfect for me.

Canada, then Hawaii would be very nice indeed.
Then New York on the way back for the shopping.

I'd love to go to Tahiti. Many of my friend have been there and have told me of the nice mixed french-tahitian girls that roam the islands there.
