angel911 SG I would most likely take a flight to RUSSIA. It's a beautiful country, rich with marvelous history and culture. Man, I love the architecture of their buildings...
the Bear SG after reading P J O'Rourke's Holidays in Hell, i want to go to Lebanon, El Salvador and Nicaragua... he looked like he had a hell of a time writing about tourism in those places but seriously, Seychelles
M SG My high schoolmate had a heck of trip and a truckload of photographs from his backpack through middle east. Visiting Petra the City of Rock, climbing pyramids, homestaying with the locals, riding camels, chasin' buses.. Have your go
the Bear SG sounds good however, O'Rourke went through the places when there was a full-on civil war going on nevermind... i think maybe about 10 years ago, i would... now, i'll stick to my nice, soft and warm Seychelles, or failing that, Ko Samui would do nicely
M SG Civil War? He certainly had a thing for adventure hehe. I received this article (pdf) from a close friend about this japanese journalist trudging pre US-occupied-Iraq, quite a fine read if you have the time and interest for exotic destinations. It's on my server here You've been to Samui right? Fantastic place, played hard, ate hard.
the Bear SG nah, O'Rourke's just a lunatic who drinks too much should read his stuff in Rolling Stone... you'll understand his irreverant humour Ko Samui yes went there, did absolutely nothing but laze around, enjoy the place, drink beer best vacation i ever had
edel SG what's yr budget? if got $$ Venice and south of France. If on tight budget, eastern eu is lovely. czech republic, bulgaris
