I'd love to visit Japan. Seems like a cool place with an interesting culture.

Egypt;

I've always loved history and have a degree in Archaeology both of which stemmed from learning about Ancient Egypt when I was in primary school and there's nowhere I've wanted to visit more than Egypt.

Ah, there's so many places, but like above I always liked learning about Ancient Rome and Greece in school so either of those.

Antarctica - would love to be stationed there for six months to a year....

SE Asia without a doubt. Beautiful scenery, women, cheap beer.

Ireland!!

I want to see if it rains as much as everyone says it does.

larrlin24 · 27-09-2014 05:29PM

So many places but number one on my list right now would be the Scottish Highlands (thank you Outlander).

New Zealand. I'd love to get a camper van and drive around both islands. Someday pepe, someday.

Bergen, Norway, I've even figured out where I want to live, up in the hills facing west out over the city towards the ocean. I spent a few weeks Norway back in 2007 and fell in love with Bergen. Fantastic country.

North Korea. Just to see if it really is best Korea.

Cee-Jay-Cee · 27-09-2014 05:54PM

Japan.

Easter Island, has always been my dream since I was 5 years old to see the Moai statues in person.

It doesn't really. The typical Irish day is overcast with a mild temp. We get blasts of extremes now and then but overall it's a pretty moderate climate.

Korea. North and South.

Right now would probably be Brittany in France. Looks superb and shares a similar culture with us.

Curly Judge · 27-09-2014 10:30PM

Bouvetoya! The nightlife and the craic is mighty.

I'd love to go back, I seriously miss the place.

Even the little things like the dingy little ramen bar near us in Tokyo that looked like a complete ****hole and was full of old men, but served the most amazing ramen for like nothing. The incredible public transport. Amazing country.

darragh_haven · 27-09-2014 10:46PM

Austin Texas. Epic spot

Desolation island

County Donegal after an all ireland final loss

Links234 · 27-09-2014 11:03PM

Oh, and speaking about going back to Japan, I would want to be careful not to just go to the same places and do the same things. I want to see things I didn't last time, like one thing I seriously want to do is go to the Sapporo Snow Festival, it would be amazing:

Yeah, that's right up there on the bucket list, that is.

That looks EPIC

Greenland for me. Would love to do 2 weeks trekking through its splendid emptiness. I reckon it would provide that real sense of occasion, knowing that you are in a relatively untouched part of the world. And yet so close to home.

westernfrenzy · 27-09-2014 11:11PM

Tokyo, Paris, Berlin and Seoul most likely

I know, right?

Another thing to do is, go to Nara. Enjoy all the old temples and amazing historical and cultural stuff, it's incredible and downright breathtaking, but really take the time to have fun with the deer :pac:

I'd love to visit Granada and see the Alhambra. Also Dubrovnik is definitely on the bucket list.

McChubbin · 27-09-2014 11:28PM

Can I come to Japan with you, Links? Seriously, it's on my bucket list to do the samurai trail someday- start out in Hokkaido and work my way down the country taking it all in.
As for goals I'm close to fufilling now, I'm 75% certain that I'll be going to New York next year. Always loved the place- it looks awesome, has great nightlife, food and culture. I've never been but I've been seduced by the likes of Sex & The City and Will & Grace into believing it's a grand place to be.

If you could travel to any place in the world, where would it be and why?
