I'm interested to see what locations everyone has at the top of their list to visit eventually.

For me, it's Argentina/Chile. I know that's a broad area, but the Patagonia region has always piqued my interest. Fishing, hiking and the scenery - what more is there to say?

Another one is Romania. I can remember a family member telling me how much he liked it when I was younger. Since then, I've always wanted to visit the countryside and the Carpathian Mountains. There's some pretty cool history and legends.

1. Iceland - almost went this year, but the cost was too much with 2 family weddings we have to travel to.

2. Eastern Europe - Have done Spain, France, and a little of Belgium.

3. Morocco - always wanted to go, and my brother says it is super cheap.

4. Australia or New Zealand

The 9 MLB ballparks I haven't been to yet.

I don't have any significant interest in overseas destinations, but Australia & Italy would probably be my preference.

Vermont for some brewery stops.

Belgium/Netherlands

Spain

Napa/Sonoma

Tuscany

After Vermont... Rhode Island, North Dakota, Wisconsin, and Michigan just so I can say that I have been to all 50 states. Those are the only 5 left.

ETA: More of Eastern Europe... I've been to Vienna, and had a few hours in Budapest switching trains, but I'd like to go back to Budapest plus visit Prague and Bratislava.

Antarctica (Patagonia is part of that trip)
Thailand
Brazil (in July)
Madagascar
Hawaii
Bhutan
Belize/Guatemala/Honduras
South Africa

My work took me to Romania last year and I really liked what I saw. Pretty countryside, nice people, very cheap. Bucharest is a good city. They are just getting on their feet economically after the communist era. One thing that is funny is they have jumped straight into the big box store era; much more so than even the US. All their gas stations are huge and very modern too. We didn't get into the mountains but I think that would be a great destination after talking with an Uber driver for a couple of hours. Uber is cheap as hell there.

Lisbon, Portugal


Just booked flights for Lisbon in May. I’m pumped. Never been. Staying in the city for a few days and at a surf camp in Ericeira for a few days. Never been surfing either. Ha

I have heard the chocolate from the region is excellent as well.

My list:
Argentina/Patagonia region
Poland:great people, food, and relatively cheap compared to the rest of europe
Somewhere in Africa just to say I've been to all continents minus Antarctica

Honestly I think I'll be spending a lot more time traveling around the US than traveling internationally. There's plenty of spots in the US that I'd love to explore like Idaho, Sierra Nevadas, Alaska, Teton national park, etc. For a lot cheaper and quicker trips I can see what the US has to offer

I think I’m going to London this summer. Originally looked at Munich but London is much easier for a quick trip.

Really looking forward to it.

I'm going to try to do Patagonia or New Zeland next winter. I went hard for Christmas and New Year's this year specifically so I could take those two weeks off nest time around and bolt.

Other new destinations on my to visit list:

Costa Rica
Florence + Tuscany
D-Day beaches at Normandy
Barbados
Alaskan Cruise + Vancouver
Grand Canyon (oddly, never been)
Japan (short stay in Tokyo, but never been to Japan proper)
Iceland
