There's so much beauty in the world and so much to see. And so little time. What places and/or attraction do you want to see before you die? Not whole countries please, but specific places or sights.

Interesting choices. The Gobi desert must be impressive, at least what I've seen so far (on TV). Adelaide and South Australia are great. Did a Road Trip there (up to Brisbane), also visited McLaren Vale and Barossa Valley. And drove to the Uluru from there and back, was a great time. See the sun coming up in the outback on the way was so impressive - also calm and quiet.

A friend of mine travelled on the Trans-Siberian Railway a few years ago (over 3 months in total) and she said the Gobi Desert was the most amazing experience. Your trip to Australia sounds great, and I hope I can do that one day, too.

    The Amalfi coast is great. Completely packed in summer though. If you can avoid July/August it will be great. Amazing views all the way. Beautiful villages. We stayed a couple of nights in "Cetara" - a smaller village by the sea in the middle of Amalfi. Affordable and a great base. The drive is really rewarding and not as scary as it seems. The roads to the villages of Cinque Terre were more challenging I gotta say. If you're at the Amalfi coast, make sure to visit Pompeii. Impressive. Studio Ghibli is a sight I would be interested as well, I was in Japan but didn't have time for that. One day hopefully.

    Hashima Island - I've read about that one several times. It was lost to me that it's actually allowed to visit. That would definitely be interesting. I'm a bit lost about Osnabrück though? I feel like I miss something obvious...

    Even though full with visitors: Bruges in Belgium is really worth it and lives up to the hype. France in general is lovely. The South as well, check out the lavender fields in June/July. Beautiful. Sweden and Italy are other wonderful countries. Both can be easily done by Road Trips if you enjoy driving.

    Oh- I didn't read the description before I posted, sorry, that it was meant to be specific destinations. 😬 In that case, I'd say perhaps Venice in Italy, maybe go hiking in Sweden, beaches in south of France, Dawson City in Canada, Transylvania in Romania, and yeah Bruges sounds pretty cool.

    Yeah, that quite sucks. Covid hit fully then. That's really unlucky. Hopefully you'll see it one day soon. I've seen some of Japan and also Seoul. Surely some more and other Asian countries are on my list as well.

    As an Alaskan, I'd say go for it! Just make sure to go during the summer, when the weather's more pleasant. There are lots of great hikes and camping opportunities, and plenty of interesting history, especially around the interior parts of the state.

    Well, that's quite something. Size-wise a lot to explore there. Only seen some parts of Alaska and little of Canada. Surely want to explore more. From Russia I only seen some cities and parts of Siberia in the 90s. Whenever politically more stable I'd like to go back one day. Now I see all the lists here...and starting to realize that time is running out to see it all.

    I'd love to go to: -St Petersburg, Russia -Talkeetna, Alaska -The International Jazz Festival in Montreal, Canada -Yokohama, Japan. Specifically, the Harbour View Park Idk that much about these places, but they seem really nice. If anyone has any information or tidbits about them, I'd love to hear :)
