Marrakech. Edinburgh (except it was way cold). Austin, Texas.

Probably Australia for the laid back atmosphere and friendly people, beautiful scenery, beaches, weather. If I could pick anywhere in the world to live, other than the U.S. it would likely be Australia - exactly where....that would have to be determined.

Thailand is another favorite, again for beautiful mountains, beaches, the buddhist culture and the gurantee that everyday you will see something that you have never seen before, nor probably ever expected to see (some good, some bad).

Bognor Regis (England) - if there is holiday hell then this place is it

Aiga Napa (Cyprus) - yuk, yuk, yuk

the grand canyon. if you think it's breathtaking from the rim...you have to see it from the bottom up. it's a deeply humbling experience.

and my favorite city in the world (so far) is Tokyo. no contest.

Australia is definantly mine. Maybe because all the others were when I was littl so it was family based and toury. This was the first that I really was opened up by and got me going fuill force.

I really loved Varedero, Cuba...it had the most beautiful beaches. Banff, Canada is another gorgeous spot. I should really go back there and spend some more time...
