Places I want to Travel To

My recent trip to Paris has awakened that travel bug in me again.  I’d love to travel and explore new cities again like I used to in my 20’s.  I’d even take the opportunity to visit places I’ve been to and see cities with a more mature (and dare I say cultured?) mind.

5 Places I Want to Travel To

• Bordeaux, France.  I appreciated Paris my second time around (the first time was a little overwhelming) but I absolutely fell in love with the French countryside.  While we were riding the train to Chatellerault France, I saw Bordeaux and it stuck in my mind.   I’d love to hope on the train from the Paris airport and visit this region.
• Santorini, Greece.  Yes please.  The blue waters, the white buildings — it’s just calling out to my camera.
• Italy.  Italy remains one of my favorite destinations.  I’d love to visit again focusing on Venice and Lake Como.  My last visit, they were the last 3 days.  I’d love to truly explore this area again.
• Japan.  Cherry blossoms and sushi?  Yes – where’s my ticket.
• The Philippines.  It’s been a very long times since I’ve gone home to the Philippines.  Each visit was also to attend a family funeral.  I really want to bring my kids to the Philippines – to meet cousins, to introduce them to their roots and to explore the countries wonderful topography.  Hopefully we can make this happen within the next couple of years.

Sigh – the nostalgia is getting to me.  What a wonderful way to imagine my day.  Where would you like to travel to today?
