- London + England in general
- my homeland
- Beirut.
- NYC
- New England
- Portugal, specifically Fatima
- Morocco
- Egypt
- Greece; the Greek Isles
- skiing in the Swiss Alps
- Switzerland
- Sydney, Australia
- Colorado, including Aspen
- the Prague
- Germany.
- Berlin
- France. But I have only a vague idea of where within I would like to go and for what purposes.
- Back to Brasil. To be honest, I mainly want to go back to the beautiful state of Bahia, where I used to live, to revisit life there. BUT that doesn't count for the purpose of this list, the title of which implies I list places I have not yet been. Naturally I want to revisit all the places I have lived and/or loved, but I'm going to limit this list to new places. Therefore, while Bahia doesn't qualify, BUT every other place in Brasil DOES. I would certainly like to see more of Brasil. So, "more of Brasil."
- More of Italy, too. I've been to very few places in Italy.
- The Netherlands. Amsterdam. Holland.
- Actually, the entirety of Northern Europe. And Central. Definitely Austria. The Baltics. Etc.
- Russia. Moscow for sure.
- East & Southeast Asia. I can't get too specific about that because I know so little about that part of the world. But there are many, very diverse destinations there I've heard of and would like to see someday...
- Vegas. No, seriously! I mean, there's "cheesy" Vegas and then there's the posh Vegas, both of which I'm into, but neither of which I can afford.
- The more exotic of the islands in the world to which I have not been. Well, any *desireable* island in the world I haven't yet been, including the not-exotic-yet-compelling. Luxury makes up for anything. As does good scuba diving, especially if there are also a number of other adventures to be had. Outdoor activities (such as like water sports, active recreation, and swimming naked in lush very-private lagoons -- preferably with a waterfall to play in and make out beneath). Parasailing, surfing, glass-bottom boat rides, jet-skiing, boating in general, helicopter rides, caving, rock climbing, kayaking, sailing, volcano hikes, interesting strolls, beach volleyball, and horseback riding are good things.
- Margaritaville, because it's always five-o-clock there.
- Any place known for white-water river-rafting.
- The best party/nightlife towns in the world.
- The best shopping locations in the world; however, this is hardly limited to couture. I love genuine street markets, specialty shops, artisan handcrafts, and unique finds, especially those that are somehow linked to the area -- it's smart to buy certain items in certain places, according to the resources they have. Haggling, of course, is basic to the whole transaction. (Sidenote: Many shopping environments don't allow this. So look beyond "shopping" environments. You never know where haggling is a worthwhile option, so haggle everywhere.)
