Buenos Aires, for being the only time I left Brazil and for the tasty empanadas.

I visited threadbow in Australia 3 years ago, it's one of Australia's few snow fields,

I come from the opposite side of the country and had never seen snow until 3 years ago.

Snowboarding was so much fun and I wish I could go back..

Costa Rica! The biodiversity and abundance of nature is astoundingly beautiful.

I'd like to go back to London. 3 days wasn't enough and there's still so much I want to see there.

I'd love to visit Oman, Seychelles, and Ukraine again.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 7 hours ago

Croatia (which was part of Yugoslavia when we went!), New York, and Mauritius. All spectacular in their own way, and I would love to visit them again.

I went on a trip to Oslo and Bergen last summer. I'd love to go back; they're great places for mixing hiking and city exploration.

I have the time and money, but it's so painful to get there, but I wouldn't mind going back to Bali again, for the... 30th time?

Montserrat in the Caribbean. Visited multiple times as a kid after the volcano as I had family working there in regeneration projects. Beautiful place, beautiful people, wouldove to see it again as an adult and see how it's changed now.

We went on a highly illegal and potentially dangerous trip (if the volcano went off again, by the time we heard it, it would be too late to escape) to see the old airport from where you can see directly up the volcano and the path the pyroclastic flow took and covered the terminal building which was half buried in the dust.

There were wild horses roaming and nature was already starting to reclaim the place so the intervening 30 years probably have accelerated that and I'd love to see it.

Im not wild about the pollution travel causes and I like to live were every day is enjoyable. Wish wise I would rather just reduce pollution and increase greenspaces while making it easy to travel by walking/biking/transit.

When I was 18 (don't ask how many years ago), I went on a road trip with my girlfriend, across the country and back. We stopped at a gas station and there was a girl around our age with Native American heritage sitting on the floor while sewing moccasins. She sold me a pair for 175 dollars. I know this because the price tag is a sticker on the inside of the tongue that I've never bothered to take off.

I wear them frequently, mostly around the house. Very comfortable. Best-fitting footwear I own. The soles have never worn through and they've needed not even one stitch in repairs. But since they're getting in the ballpark of two decades old, I worry they will wear out someday. I would love to go back to that area and spend more time than a quick stop at the gas station. Partly to find out who else around there is helping to keep these elements of native cultures alive. And hopefully I would also find my way into owning a backup pair of some really good moccasins.

Hawaii definitely. But not while the current U.S. political situation is ongoing.

Hanauma Bay. My favourite uncle loved that place. He taught my cousin to swim there, in the ocean water, with the fish and turtles.

We want to go back because we miss him. Mom misses him dearly after his death. But we can't go there while it's crazy, and Mom's on the decline herself. I think we don't have a viable window to get there, but we're hoping.

Northern California, but I'm not visiting the US again until there has been a revolution.

[-] [email protected] 14 points 19 hours ago

I'd love to go and live in Lyon, France. I was there for about a month and the people were cool, lots of local events, shops, scenery. The food was amazing. It was a bit pricey for someone who makes money in Japanese Yen, but it was totally worth it.

[-] [email protected] 16 points 20 hours ago

France. Specifically, a little town called Ardres. J'ai passé des vacances là-bas. C'était incroyable. Nous avons loué un gîte à la campagne. Je retournerais si je pouvais.

J'adore la France.

[-] [email protected] 7 points 17 hours ago

J'ai passé des vacances dans Ardres aussi, quand j'ai onze ans avec mon école, de très jolis souvenirs de navigation sur les lacs

[-] [email protected] 3 points 11 hours ago

Les lacs d'Ardres sont très beaux. La ville est très conviviale.

Je parle français parce que j'aimerais retourner en France un de ces jours. Si je pratique chaque jour.

almost everywhere I've vacationed. Galapagos, southeast asia, scottland... Traveling is the best.

[-] [email protected] 12 points 19 hours ago

Galway Ireland. Just north a bit. Clonboo area. Just peaceful to me. Rented a house for a month. Visited the grocery store and the pub at the corner. I miss it a ton. Would move there in an instant if I could.

Bath is the coolest city I've ever been to; it started my lifelong interest in Roman history.

[-] [email protected] 9 points 19 hours ago

Tokyo, Hakone and Kyoto, more time in Osaka. Went 2 years ago for our honeymoon and I fell in love with Japan. Kyoto especially, sitting down by the river, drinking a high ball I bought from the Lawsons and just vibing was one of the best experiences I’ve ever had!

[-] [email protected] 6 points 18 hours ago

I love Japan in general, have been a couple of times, but last time I went we stayed on the shore of lake Yamanaka one of the Fuji five lakes.

We rolled up in the evening and there was a heavy fog, you can only see 5m in front of you sort of heavy. Found where we were staying which was right on the shore but you could barely even see the lake still. It was a traditional futon on the floor type place, first impressions were alright.

The next day we woke up to a beautifully clear day, look out the window to a view of the lake with Fuji rising up behind it, it was fucking amazing! I can't recommend the lakes enough after this experience!

The rabbit island down near Hiroshima is awesome too :D

Basel 2 months ago. I've had the chance to get to know Basel's history and vibe in a gay date tour with my internet friend. It was soo lovely, even though I know that this 2-3 day of a date was a forbidden love in some way, but man these are GREAT memories to remember by.

Tacoma, Washington. Just beautiful peaceful and green.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 17 hours ago

Oh, god. I had the pleasure of living in northern Oregon. I miss it so much, it was gorgeous everywhere I went.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 19 hours ago

Buenos Aires. Went there alone for a few weeks when I was 24. Didn't really get to see many sights though, as I was there for surgery. Would like to be able to visit again someday and actually be able to take in the place properly. Same goes for Bangkok.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 8 hours ago

Went to Rosario in my younger days, would love to go back some time.

Wolf Creek Pass / Pagosa Springs, CO.

My old man was a fan of C.W. McCall, so grew up with his song about it. Randomly had a friend's family invite me with them to a ski trip there in college. Slopes were solid (my ski experience is very limited, but my amateur ass liked them), and the hot springs were great. First time I ever saw a couple unabashedly and openly smoking a joint in public (this was before state said pot was legal).

[-] [email protected] 6 points 20 hours ago

The Mojave. The desert is gorgeous, I long for getting away from the humidity, and I NEED a burger at Goodsprings.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 20 hours ago

I went to Europe when I was 11, but now that I'm an adult and have an appreciation for history I'd love to go back. Me and my fiance have talked about traveling at some point. The main destinations are Ireland and Scotland, because our families are from there

[-] [email protected] 5 points 20 hours ago

I just did this! 11 day road trip vacation back through Yellowstone and surrounding areas after going on the same trip (but only spending ~18 hours in Yellowstone) 29 years ago with my dad, uncle and his son. Had my wife and kids and my wife's best friends' family along.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 19 hours ago

Taiwan, specifically Jiou Fen. It's a hillside town in northeastern Taiwan, lot of stairs but it's walkable, the view is gorgeous, the general vibe is just awesome. Though i went there about 10 years ago, not sure if the pandemic changed anything.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 20 hours ago

Honestly? Cape Meares and Garibaldi. Not far from home.

Most places in my childhood and past are illegal for me to travel to in this form.

Alaska. Gorgeous state.

The Bahamas. My wife and I went there once and it was perfect.

The more possible answer, Niagra Falls. I've been there a few times but my wife wants to see it.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 19 hours ago

I've been to the Caribbean a few times and loved every trip. Just went to the Dominican Republic for the first time this year and it was amazing. Grand Cayman had the most beautiful water I've ever seen. The Bahamas are wonderful. Aruba is on my list of places I want to go.

Playa Del Carmen, Mexico was a fun place to visit although the ocean swimming isn't great there. I loved the Xenote we visited.

But the place I most want to go back to Thailand. The north country is beautiful, and the people are lovely. My first trip was really heavy on the temples, but each one has a unique character. Doissetep was incredibly scenic, we saw the palace temple where we got blessed by a monk, and the white temple (Wat Rong Khun) was incredible. We saw several other temples but they kinda blended together. We also made merit by feeding the monks and saw the water festival. I'm not a spiritual person but it really made me feel connected to humanity.

Bangkok was really cool, but I only saw it for a few days and that was enough of the big city. The floating market was really cool, and the food was amazing. I want to go back and visit Phuket. I got to see a less touristy side of the country because my uncle married a Thai woman. It's not overstating it to say it was a life-changing experience. I want to take my kids and I hope they find it as meaningful as I did.

I've never really connected with a country like I did with Thailand. It was also my only tour group. My wife, who I married later, prefers all inclusive resorts where you barely experience the culture. I won't deny I really enjoy them, but wish I could talk her into a tour group some day.

London and Britain in general

Pennsylvania and Maryland

Michigan

Colorado

Montana, yeah definitely Montana. Sure! Here are some reasons why visit Montana to hide actual places I've been to which I would not like to get ruined by tourism....

[-] [email protected] 4 points 20 hours ago

Basically the handful of countries in western Europe that I visited after graduating highschool in the late '90s. I haven't been back since and would love to see it again as someone who's not a very sheltered 17-year-old. The trip was also cut short because there was a huge storm off the US East coast or something that had us end up flying up to Canada, spending the night, and then flying over.

Salem, MA is one of my favorite places to be. I used to go there so often that the locals thought I was a local. I planned to "retire" (whatever the millennial equivalent is) there.

Nowadays it's no longer safe to visit home
