Phaedrus 209521 Report post Posted October 1, 2012 Angkor Wat is absolutely at the top of my bucket list. I should also say: I'm probably going to hate this thread, 'cos it'll give me itchy feet... :) 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The General 11309 Report post Posted October 1, 2012 I hear there is an island for sale cheap somewhere around there, none of the youth work, so they are available to help. Price is $1, you just take over their debt. lol Cato you would love it! I spent two months in Greece and I aim to get back there in a few months!

mrrnice2 157005 Report post Posted October 1, 2012 (edited) I am quite certain that the thread was designed with the intent of having people identify destinations that one could by whatever definition call exotic. Greece, Venice, Angkor Wat, and many others would certainly be amazing, as would Egypt, the rainforests, and the loneliness found in the Artic. Not making fun at all here, but sometimes the phrase of "The grass is greener on the other side," may apply. I realize that many CERB members are from Ottawa, but as a person who only rarely gets to vist there, it is one of my favorite destinations. I have been there for the tulip festival, seen pomp on Parliament Hill, just wandered around downtown people watching and got a crick in my neck from looking up at tall buildings. There are plenty of places that cause one to yearn for a visit, but you have a pretty amazing, beautiful and fun city right there.

fiskaa 2600 Report post Posted October 1, 2012 Had the pleasure of visiting a few of the Greek Islands last year.....Santorini was incredible, did a hike from Fira to Oia that had amazing views the entire way. The island of Rhodes was also impressive. Definitely going back....the sooner the better! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kyra.Graves 23779 Report post Posted October 2, 2012 I have always wanted to wander the Grand Bazaar in Istanbul then relax in the evening sipping wine or tea on a patio overlooking the Bosphorus. I too would put Angkor Wat on my list of places as well as Phnom Penh, so much history I think I'd just want to wander and soak it all in - both the good and the bad. I've also wanted to visit Prague for sometime now, nothing in particular I wanted to visit there but it has caught my eye and won't let go. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
roamingguy 300292 Report post Posted October 2, 2012 Well back when I was a kid my dad was posted in W. Germany for three years, so got to see Europe. Then I was posted to West Germany with the Canadian Forces, saw West Germany (most from the back of an armoured personal carrier LOL). Point is, really going overseas, if an opportunity arose, sure I'd go, but it's not a goal But we have this beautiful country called Canada, of which I've only seen a little bit of. I'd love to go to Newfoundland (I've seen NS, NB, PEI), BC, up north to the Yukon...those are just a few areas of Canada I'd like to see Something I plan to do when I retire RG Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's amazing and awe-inspiring and I wish I had more time than a weekend when I was there (two months in Jordan on a university field credit for archaeology--there were planned trips to various places in Jordan every weekend). 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
loopie 15358 Report post Posted October 3, 2012 I've always had a love of Scandinavian culture. Some of you may have noticed I've been gone from CERB for the last several months, I was in Sweden and it was fantastic! I had been to Stockholm 10 years ago, but I got to do a lot more this time. I also saw other parts of Sweden and went to Copenhagen in Denmark. Next year I am going to China and really looking forward to it. I get to hold a baby panda! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
