Places to go before I die ...

I was counting on the number of countries I’ve visited & the year I went to them … all together, 13 countries. As listed, I put in the year of my most recent visit. Come to think of it, a lot and yet, not as many as I would have wanted. Hopefully I can hit a few more in 2007

1999 Thailand – Hat Yai, Phuket, Golok

2001 Germany - Dortmund

2001 Switzerland – Zurich, Berne

2002 Hungary - Budapest

2002 Romania – Arad, Buzias, Timisoara, Brasov

2003 Austria - Vienna

2003 Czech Republic - Prague

2003 Slovakia – Bratislava, Nitra, Banksa Bystrica, Kosice, Poprad, Vysoke Tatry, Zilina, Spisska Nova Ves, Bardejov, Komarno, Liptovsky Mikulas, Prievidza

2003 Tunisia – Tunis, Hamamet

2005 China - Shanghai

I’ve decided that there will be 15 places I need to go in this lifetime, before I die . As listed below (the first as top & gradual descending with less priority)

1. St. Petersburg, Russia
2. Plitvice, Croatia
3. Santiago, Chile
4. Buenos Aires, Argentina
5. Alaska, USA
6. Bermuda, Caribbean
7. Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
8. Trans Siberian Railway, Russia
9. California, USA
10. Sydney & Brisbane, Australia
11. Rome, Italy
12. New York, USA
13. Johannesburg, South Africa
14. Cairo, Egypt
15. Tokyo, Japan

We’ll see if there’s any way to achieve it all … dreams start with clear goals … and hopefully there’s a path somewhere . But I realize also that things change as we meet people and we shall see where my road takes me & where it ends. See you at the finishing line!
