Name the top 5 countries you want to go to.
 
I really would love to go to...


#1 Japan
- I love everything about Japan. I love the tv shows, the movies, the manga, the traditional costume, the culture, the history, the food, the technology, the fashion... I have to go there! It's a must!


#2 Italy
- I want to go to Italy mostly to visit Rome & Venice. I want to visit Venice before it sinks completely, plus it's apparently really a romantic place. I would definitely survive on the food there! Pizza, pasta! I would also love to see the arts & sculptures over there.


#3 China
- I have been to China, but never Beijing. I would like to go to Beijing, China to see the Forbidden City & most of all, The Great Wall of China. It would be a brilliant opportunity for me to take art photos there.


#4 England
- Firstly, I would like to visit my relatives over there who I've never seen in person. Secondly I'd probably drool over all the accents, but I still wouldn't mind trying to make those royal guards move. Perhaps see a real British premiere league soccer game, see a musical there? I'm not so sure. A plus is that everybody speaks English over there.


#5 South Korea
- I had a best friend from South Korea. We've lost contact but before she left Australia for good, she gave me the gift of a beautiful Korean traditional gown. Ever since then I've wanted to visit South Korea, there's something about that place that's absolutely beautiful & I would like to see it for myself. I don't know if I could survive on the food though. Kind of spicey I've heard.




How about you guys!?

Hmmm...
1) Italy - Specifically Rome, because of all the interesting archeological aspects.
2) Japan - Because I'm interested in the culture.
3) Ireland - Because it's beautiful and that's where my ancestors are from.
4) England - I don't really know why. But it's always appealed to me.
5) Africa - Or parts of it, because, once again, I find the cultures interesting, along with the wildlife.

8)

1- Back to England- Hell. I'm moving there if I ever get the chance. It's just such a gorgeous place, and I just like how the British people work.
2- Japan- J-rock and crazy porn. That is all.
3- South Korea- Always been a point of interest. Don't know why, but I want to go there.
4- Back to Germany- I didn't get to spend a lot of time there when I did a band tour of Europe, and it was really fun. Everyone was real nice there.
5- Russia- COMMIES! Well, ex-commies. And their old Romanov architecture is simply gorgeous.

1. Japan -I've always wanted to go here, I have been learning Japanese for three years and I love all the culture that I've learned. Books, music, fashion, people, it seems so different from all that I know. I'm completely intrigued.

2. Germany - The land of my forefathers. I learned German for four years, and their culture also interests me. Goethe is AMAZING, and I would love to go around and enjoy what my past people enjoyed.

3. Ireland - I've always seen Ireland as a very lush country, and very beautiful. Ever since I had a very patriotic Irish teacher in fourth grade, my interest has never waned.

4. England - The land of all the wonderful English literature! I cannot resist such a land that produced the genius of Shakespeare and Keats!

5. China - I've read so much about China, and their culture really interests me as well. Though I am a bit nervous about the communist part, I would love to see the lands.

^^

There are five schools in australia which are approved Study Abroad for my university. Also some in England and New Zealand. France as well, but I don't wnat to have to fulfill a language requirement if I want to study abroad.

1. Japan. I would really want to go buy all of the CDs from the bands that I really like there. ^^ I'd like to buy their sweet technology and watch the TV!
Their culture is so different, it'd be neat to go see.

2. China. Well, It's a neat country, I'd just like to see how it's like there, maybe buy some clothing, and check out the culture there as well. ^^ The food is yummy! XD

3. Canada Uhh, Canada is super awesome. xD I want to go to Vancouver and Toronto, just to see how nice it is during the summer time up there. ^^

4. England, like London and go see some of the neat architecture there. I'd like to go to the Royal Palace, just to see the guards. xD I wouldn't do anything, though. 8)

5. Australia. Well, Australians are cool, and I'd want to go see Sydney and like, Perth, and such, and go to the Australia Zoo(I've wanted to go for a long time) to see the animals there and whatnot. ^^ That'd be neat. :o

Some of the cities are...depressing. Because they're really impovrished and underprivelaged. My boyfriends family lives in Juarez, Chihuaha, and almost the whole city is really...broken down. For lack of better words. The culture is amazing, though. You can just walk around on a weekend, especially a sunday, and see all sorts of interesting things, such as the Native Americans doing dances, etc.

Mexico City is really nice, too, and really tourist oriented. My dad went there and said it was the nicest place he went to in terms of friendliness, with the exception of maybe Rome. And the pyramids, etc., are REALLY interesting.

Sorry for rambeling. I really like Mexico, despite bad experiences I've had there/friends have had.

RivekAilinar 03-28-2007 11:37 PM

Having been to London once, I'm in awe of its Underground.

Miss Charlaine 03-28-2007 11:37 PM

Ooh thanks for all the info! I really want to go now and I think Mexico has moved up on my list! XD

Super Pantless Girl 03-28-2007 11:39 PM

I would love to go to...

1. Japan. It's been a place I've wanted to go, even before I became a manga collector. I'd love to take in the technology, and of course, the culture. It's definitely my number one place to go.

2. Egypt. See all the historical sites, since I seriously love that stuff. The mythology always interested me when I was younger, and it just seems like a cool place to visit.

3. Greece. Again, it was the mythology that started me thinking about this place. It also seems like a very nice place to visit, and I have a soft spot for the art, too.

4. England. Seems like a quaint place to see. It has good architecture, and some places I'd really like to see.

5. China. Just seems cool. I'd like to say I've eaten food in China, and laugh at someone when they ask "...chinese food?" No, just regular food. xD

And I'd love to go back to...

France. I went there for a week last year, and it was positively amazing. I'd love to go back, and spend some more time at the Louvre, and definitely go walking around the city again.

lizzle 03-28-2007 11:44 PM

I don't really have an order for the places I want to go.. but...

Japan:
I've always wanted to go to Japan. ^.^ Even though I'm not as much into Anime these days, the culture is so facinating, and I'd love to be able to go to one of those quiet scenic country spots and get to wear a Yukata or a Kimono and sit in a hot spring and all that nice, relaxing stuff. ^.^ Although.. I also wana go to Tokyo and just wonder the streets and look at all the interesting people. o.o;

Italy:
I think it would be just.. beautiful, and there are so many historical sights to see. It would be amazing to see them in person.

France:
I want to visit The Louvre. ^.^

Ireland:
I have a few friends that live in Ireland, and I really want to meet them. Guys from Ireland are officially hot. XD Maybe it's just me though. e.e;

England:
I was actually there once already, but it was only London City that I got to see. I would really like to go, and see more of the country and stuff, and get away from the insane crowds. o.o;

Lilithia 03-28-2007 11:52 PM

A reason I don't want to go to France is because I've heard people are really rude when you try to speak English over there, & some people even don't like it when you try to speak French.

momus 03-28-2007 11:55 PM

It depends on where you go in France. People in Paris tend to be rude, or so says my friend. If you go to the smaller cities/towns, people are usually more polite and REALLY appreciate it when you try to speak French.
