Anywhere in the world

Before I leave for college, my dad has agreed to take me anywhere in the world. Anyone have any suggestions?

I'd go to Italy :mrgreen:

But a secret hot spot would be Dubai. It's in the United Arab Emirates, and I'm not kidding here, look it up. It's supposedly very luxurious, even though it's in the middle east.

Don't worry about the middle east, we got it under control.

Dubai is the best place to go for a vacation.

Go to Curacao. No biasedness. None what so ever.

Nah, if you want a nice island with all the perks, head over to Mauritius. If you want an island with all the jerks, head over to the Phillipines. :mrgreen:

Why would he like it there? Free blunts? I mean, it's a vacation to ANYWHERE in the world & you'd come here just for free blunts? Save your money on that trip. You can make that trip with college buddies orso.

Use this opportunity to go to a country that isn't as...well, ordinary. Amsterdam has nothing to offer. Holland has nothing to offer. Their cuisine sucks, they have little to no culture, nothing is really their own besides...well, what the fuck do they call hutspot in English? Anyone? Anyways, it's some sort of mash with all sorts of stuff and sausages. They smoke blunts & drink lots of beer. Their taste in comedy sucks & pretty much all their shows involve a gay person. If there is one thing they live & die for it's football. Pretty much because they don't really excel in any other sport.

The people are cold & unfriendly. If you're being friendly, you want something so everyone just tries to not be friendly. It's fast paced & just uncomfortable lifestyle in general, hectic, chaotic & busy. Rush, rush & rush.

Go to somewhere you actually realise you're on a vacation. As I said, Mauritius. Or if you like snow, Kazhakstan (sp?). My uncle lives there & I've seen their home video's, nice place to ski.

Of course. Its in Northern Thailand. It's a good place for Tourisms to go. There are alot of Monuments and Wat ( Temples ) there to go check out. Hot weather over there. There are Thai handicrafts originate in north Thailand, and you can visit factories and shops that make and sell almost everything. Best of all, it is quite affordable. Also while your there in Chiang Mai, you'll most likely ride on a elephant and they will take you around and show you the great scenary if you into that kinda stuff. Is that all your going to Jugs ? Not stoppin by Bangkok. That's where the party is at :cool:

Well, I'm Finish, and I've been there. I also have French-Canadian roots, and Native American roots, so nothing really stems from that.

I've already been to Italy too, and Dubai is somewhere I've actually been considering. The thing is though, is that I'm not exactly looking for a hot spot vacationing place, I like the more urban, exploration type places.

Thanks for the suggestion, I'll consider it. (Y)

Another place I've already been, but yes, Amsterdam is definitley a great place.

Definitley a possibility, Prague has always intrigued me.

I was leaning towards going to see Istanbul before an earthquake destroys it, but the weather in December (when I will be going) is rainy and cold.

You've got to enlighten us on what it is you're looking for.

If you're looking for sun, sand & fun, head to one of the islands I've mentioned in the past. (ABC islands.)

If you're looking for grayness & cold, head to Europe.

If you're looking for adventure/wildlife, head to Suriname. ( I say Suriname given I've been to their jungles & it's paradise, it's a rainforest type place so that's something different when compared to Sea & Sand of Curacao or gray & wet of Holland.)

Where else have I been? Humm, been to India once & the pollution ticked me off + the amount of people made me claustorphobic so I wouldn't suggest that.

Puerto Rico was awesome too, but that'd be more of a college time destination.

I'm also considering Costa Rica. I almost went there on a school trip a few years ago, but I got denied because my Science grades sucked. :lol:

Suriname seems interesting... I'll chek it out!

Australia won't work because we don't speak a foreign language, so it won't feel like a holiday. Unless you go to Sydney and you'll think you're in Asia.

My suggestions:

Tokyo
Dubai
Bali (with a large empty bag).

Costa Rica's nice too, we went with our school, the scenery is awesome. We took pics under a waterfall etc, too flowery for my liking though. :lol:
