Chrissy,
I would at least like to visit all of the continents. As a child with my family and as adult in the Air Force and on business, I have traveled through out the United States, except the north west quadrant, including Alaska and Hawaii. The only state that I have not visited east of the Mississippi river is Vermont. I have spent some time in Montreal on business, and I have visited Mexico, so that checks off North America.
When I was very young, my Father was in the Army, and I lived at a base in Fulda, Germany. I don't remember a whole lot about it. Since then, I have been back to Berlin on business, and I got to do a little site seeing. I have been to a few other places in Europe, and I enjoyed them all.
While in the Air Force I was stationed in Korea, and I did a four month temporary assignment in the Philippines, so at least I can cross Asia off of my list. I would have liked to visit and experienced many more Asian countries and cultures.
Again, while in the Air Force, I did a very short tour of duty in Egypt in the desert just outside of Alexandria. This was a very exciting and eye opening and cultural experience. As a civilian, I visited Tel Aviv, Israel a couple of times on business, and while there, I visited Jerusalem once. This checks of Africa, but there is so much more I would want to see and experience.
So that leaves mostly the southern hemisphere that I want to visit. I want to visit Chile, Argentina and Brazil, Australia and Antarctica. At my age and with my financial resources and priorities, those places will probably stay on my bucket list. I am very happy with the places I have been; the experiences I have had; the people I have met along the way; and the remembrances and stories I love to tell.
Where would I like to live? That is a hard one for me. I have live in a number of places. I have liked all of them, but I have not liked any of them better than my current home. I am not restless or looking to move, but I still love an adventure.
Thank you for allowing me to review some of my life here even though this is probably a long answer than you expected. Going through these remembrances in my mind makes me nostalgic and emotional.
Love,
Gwen
