I haven’t been everywhere but it’s on my list. – Susan Sontag
Good day, dreamers and travelers! Have you always wanted to see the world? Got a long list of your dream destinations? I’d like to have a peek! To start the ball rolling, I thought I’d begin by sharing my list with you. So here are the places on earth that I’d like to visit and why. (Note: Part I or V)
Europe
1. Norway
Why: I’ve never seen any other country with such a dramatic landscape (waterfalls, fjords, glaciers), seascape (lakes and beaches), and skyscape (Northern Lights and a preview of the Arctic territory).
2. Switzerland
Why: Blame Johanna Spyri for bringing us Heidi’s adventures while living in the snow-capped mountains with his grandpa.
3. Austria
Why: Pretty towns and plenty of opportunities to practice skiing. A beginner has to start somewhere.
4. Germany
Why: I’d like to see this fairy-tale like castle built in the 19th century. It’s called the Neuschwanstein Castle.
5. Italy
Why: I’ve always wondered what it’s like to roam in the new Rome.
6. France
Why: Food lovers will always dream of France – the country with the most Michelin Star restaurants.
7. Northern Ireland
Why: The right question is, ‘Why not?’ This paradise is a favorite vacation spot of celebrities and dreamers.
8. Spain
Why: I want to try the sensational train ride to the legendary monastery called Monestir de Montserrat.
9. Greece
Why: I’m yet to meet a person who never loves Greece. We have great cinematographers to thank for bringing this gem to our consciousness.
10. United Kingdom
Why: What inspired the greatest novels, arts, and movies from the UK? Its otherworldly surroundings.
Stay tuned for Part II of this Travel Bucket List.
