"If money was no object where would you go on holiday?"

Post Reply New Topic

If money wasn't an object, I'd go on a volunteer holiday to help sea turtles, maybe one of the ones offered by the organization See Turtles.

If I had enough money to go wherever I wanted, I would go to New Zealand for 6 - 9 months.

Either Svalbard or Mongolia.

imagination is free and makes a great holiday destination no matter where you are

The Russian far East
about 1.5 million people in an area twice the size of India, rather untouched nu humankind, it looks rather beautiful

I'd stay home with my girlfriend or maybe go visit my parents but I only see them twice a year which is about how often I want to visit them anyways.

i would travel all around the Nordic area. especially Norway

Surprise, I would like to travel across the US on a slowly moving bus, from New York City to San Francisco. There used to be a company called Green Turtles. Is it still there? It took eight days to cover the trip, I'd love it if it took two weeks.

Where do you think you have been thus far, Noca? Join the rest of us on the wrong planet in our left-steered double-decker, take off your boots and socks and have a beer.

Places I'd like to visit, off the top of my head:

1. Spain and Italy: for the food, culture and history
2. UK and Ireland: money permitting, I'd like to spend a month looking into family history; I have at least 8 ancestors that migrated to Aus/NZ from there.
3. North Korea and Bhutan: purely out of curiosity. They're both isolated countries (NK even more so), but still have relatively decent facilities.
4. South Korea and Japan: I'm learning both their languages, so I'd like to try them out on the locals once I get good enough. Plus both have AMAZING food and technology.

Hmmm.. perhaps to a place of love & happiness w/ a partner.

As for geographical locations, not really sure.. mostly because there's nowhere like home. Seriously. I taken a lot of road trips but have only flown twice, once to vegas & once back. I've never been overseas. Meanwhile, my twin brother was a cruise travel agent for nearly a decade and has travelled all over the world. Still, I have no desire to travel for travel's sake. I can see myself travelling in the future in order to kiteboard different beaches around the world, though.

But still, technically money isn't really a constraint anymore. I'm not rich, but I have some savings/investments now and could afford to go buy a return ticket to anywhere if I really wanted to travel. However, I'm very fortunate to live in one of the most desirable places on the planet & so instead I choose to utilize home to the max for as little money as possible. Beaches, kiteboarding, mountains, city etc - this place is practically a resort town to the wealthy elite of the world who travel here from all over.. why would I want to leave it?? Especially when I can enjoy it while keeping my money invested and working for me.

Someday, though, if I have a partner (read: gay boyfriend) then maybe I'd be more apt to travel as I'd have someone I wanted to travel with kind of thing.

Everywhere, more or less regardless of budget. It's not so far fetched to car camp, ski bum and generally drive my shenanigans around the planet on a simple 4x4. Nothing flashy, I'm hoping to get to work as soon as I can afford a Land Cruiser... More often than not I've read the tricky part is waiting around for visas.

paris for the museums and then a carribean cruise.

I would stay at home. Holidays are stressful.
