    As the title said if you could only pick five places to go before you died, what would they be?
    For me it would have to be:
    1. New York
    2. Tokyo
    3. Rio de Janeiro
    4. Florence
    5. Moscow

    I'll try my best to narrow it down to five.

    1) Australia and New Zealand, and the rest of Oceania
    2) Europe
    3) South America
    4) Asia
    5) Africa

    I seriously don't think I would ever turn down a trip anywhere. Traveling is one of the main things I will be doing with my life.

    So tough to choose, especially among all those spectacular national parks in North America.
    • Jiuzhaigou in Sichuan Province, P.R. China, for otherworldly natural beauty.
    • The Alps in Switzerland or Italy. Nothing like majestic, snow-capped mountain peaks towering above picturesque valleys and towns.
    • At least one country in the Scandinavian peninsula.
    • Denali National Park, via an Alaskan cruise.
    • Yellowstone National Park, because the supervolcano underneath could explode before we know it.
    Runners-up:
    • Wildlife reserves in Kenya or Tanzania. I want to go on a safari!
    • Machu Picchu
    • The Himalayas (via Nepal, probably)
    • Yosemite National Park

    eh?
    In no particular order:
    Paris - for the wine, art and culture. Also because I really love hearing people speak in French
    Tokyo - So much to see and do; love asian metropolitan cities
    Seoul (or somewhere in Korea) - food and shopping!
    The Galapagos Islands (sp?) - to satisfy my inner bio nerd 8D
    Switzerland - snowboarding!

    Fortunately I've knocked out a few so far: Switzerland, London, Manhattan, Vancouver (BC), Athens. I would love to go (almost) everywhere though, so five places is really tough... Umm:

    1. San Francisco (I've been there, but I was eight. So I don't count that, hah).
    2. New Zealand (I would search every nook and cranny of that country if I had the time and money...).
    3. Anywhere in Scotland. Heck, I'd really love to start at the southern cities and then make my way up to the highlands.

    Crap, I'm running out of slots too soon....Hmm

    4. Amsterdam.
    5. Oslo or Stockholm or Copenhagen or Melbourne (can't decide for the life of me, lol).
