We've all been somewhere in life. Even our own backyards may have treasures untold. Where have you been? Where do you want to go? What makes the world beautiful in your eyes?
In England I got to see old castles and in Germany some of the oldest breweries to date. Italy had great food, so did Spain. Switzerland was colorful and the people were cool. Went on a tour of the Black Forest. The night I spent there was most enchanting. On a long walk I took near a lake, I found myself surrounded by fireflies and other bugs that glowed in the dark. China has great people too. I see a lot of the western world coming out over there these days. South Korea is booming, but North Kroea... well... I've been to the border... yes they think they are hardasses for life. I mean their flag is like the biggest in the world there.
Quatar has the best jewelry in the world hands down!
America has lots of wide open scenery and a unique history all it's own. All the theme parks are nice.
Canada has great forests you can get lost in for weeks.
I'd like to go to Africa sometime too, and possibly New Zealand. I also haven't been to Australia, but that can wait.

You know, I've gotten a lil interest in photography... and I was taking pictures one day with my camera cellphone, and it occured to me, just how much we don't notice sometimes. There were some rather pretty trees in my own backyard. (it was fall time) and yeah, I started looking more for cool things to take a picture of. Wow the sky has the awesomest looks sometimes... and so do the tree tops.
As my life has gotten more busy and stressed, I appreciate and like natures a lot more now, though I always did like it some. ^^ There is so much to behold, if we just trained our eyes to see it.
I also like being in the big city areas sometimes. Its a cool feeling. =] I was in San Francisco in August and got to take the public transportation downtown and I thoroughly enjoyed it... (once we were able to figure out how the heck to get where we were going) xD And wow its such a marvel how so many buildings are crammed onto a few hills there. And the number of people that crowd the streets downtown every day!
The beach is a lovely place to go too... Water can be so sooth and relaxing to hear make its normal sounds. The surf can make you feel so tiny, with such massive beautiful things to take in. Its a biiig world.
I hope to travel much more in my future. =] I have only gotten to be out of the US twice... both times driving over the border of Canada. And I have a lot of world I wish to explore... Including the fascinating european architecture, and the amazing asian cultures and oh probably much more. xD

 ♥ That's thing about Canada. It has all sorts of nice scenery, but they're EVERYWHERE. You can't even appreciate it anymore =.= ♥

"Happiness is like peeing in your pants..."
Hawai'i. Rich in beauty (its people and landscape), culture, and vowels (phrase of the day: 'Oiai'o no (line over the 'o' in 'no' to draw it out). It means "Really?/Is that so?). >.<
I'm actually on the drier part of O'ahu near Honolulu (pronounced 'Honolulu' not 'Hanalulu'. They get really upset when you say it wrong. And wouldn't you too if someone called your home town something else, especially when the name itself has meaning?). It's still greener than most of southern California. But the other half is suppose to be SUPER GREEN.
I slept on a beach here and was fairly comfortable. In fact, that's what my Political Science teacher did... for 6 months.
The water in nature is warm, but not hot, whether its from the ocean or from the rain (which happens about every day or so. I got rained on coming back from 1st period).
There is a lot more to talk about, but that will take up a lot of time... I'll post again with more.
xd "...Everyone else can see it, but only you can feel the warmth."
