Re: Places you really want to visit
A tropical island somewhere, where its nice and warm, not too hot, nice warm light breeze. Massage table on the veranda overlooking the beach. Scantily clad attractive females frolicing in the waves. Great food. Good company.
*sigh*
Oh well, back to work.

Heh... Me too... I heard stories about Japan from people who've been there, and I'm studying Japanese and listen quite a bit to JPop.
Japan must be really cool the way it's organised, especially Tokyo. For example: the trains in Tokyo run exactly on time and they apologise over the speakers if they are 10 seconds late or so.
I'm going to save me some money for a few weeks of a tourguide to Japan next year. I really love to see that place.

Re: Places you really want to visit
Japan sounds like a hideous place to go.
Crowded, overstyled, garish, bizzare, self-depreciating, americana obsessed, school girl fixated, contradictary crap.

Re: Places you really want to visit
According to one of my colleagues Japan is a bet depressing as their culture is a combination of hugely superficial and work-obsessed. Sort of a polite version of America.

Re: Places you really want to visit
Australia is the place I would most like to go to. After that I would like to go skiing in the Alps, Japan, Las Vegas, Prague, the Caribbean then while it isn't somewhere I really want to go, I wouldn't mind visiting Patagonia.

Prague, the Australian outback, Las Vegas and Venice.
For the beer, the solitude, the poker and the sights, in that order.

Re: Places you really want to visit
frankly i don't see what would be so great about going to The Moon or Mars. the only fun thing about either of them would be the gravity. although, i don't think being crushed on Mars would be all that fun

Mars is smaller than the Earth and as such has a weaker gravitational pull. You might be thinking of Venus, where you would be crushed (even though it's very slightly smaller than the Earth) due to dense gasses. However, you could be thinking of Jupiter, which is ****ing massive, though it has no (known) surface.
That's not to say that you wouldn't die on Mars, as you definately would, just not due to gravity. The same is true of Venus, and on Jupiter the gravity is easily enough to kill even though there's no surface, but you'd probably die of something else first. So yeah, none of them are exactly hot tourist destinations.
