Imagine that you received a free trip and that you had the chance to visit 6 different places: One place in Europe, one place in Asia, one place in Africa, one place in South America, one place in Central America and one place in the US. Which places would you choose and why? Would it be hard or easy to decide which places that you wanted to visited? I would be extremely happy if I got such a free trip, but I would find it really difficult to pick out the places, because there are too many places that I want to visit In Europe I would choose Croatia, because it is one of the European countries that I haven't visited yet. In Asia I would find it especially hard to choose, but maybe I would pick my childhood dream which is a trip to India. In Africa I would visit Kenya. In South America I would visit Chile, because I used to have a classmate from Chile and she has told me about her country and that made me interested in visiting the country myself. In Central America I would visit Costa Rica, because I have a friend from Costa Rica. I would also be interested in Guatemala and Belize, but I am only able to choose one country, so I would choose Costa Rica. In the US I would visit California or Florida.

Nice,so you would choose places where your friends do live and one which is your dream.Its a free trip so one thing is that your health should be good to go on the trip.And the places should be in such a way that you dont find difficulty in communicating with the people over there.And the place should not disturb your health also.So though its a free trip you should hold some money with you,for safety and you should be well known about things so that some times things go off in some situations and you can feel not problem in returning to your place .It should be a group though you won u should be accompanied with some group from your place so that there would not be any problem.Hope your dreams come true.

You have some good points. Yes, health is important if we want to travel around and visit so many different places. I once travelled while I was ill, and I never want to experience that again, because it was not a nice experience. If I get the chance to go on a trip like that I would prefer to travel with my husband and maybe some friends as well. I think that it would be too lonely to travel on my own and I would also be less worried about my safety if I travel in a group. Which places would you choose to visit if you got a free trip?

I understand that. When we have other obligations can't just go a vacation even if we get a free trip. Which pets do you have? I also live in a family with pets, and when we want to travel we have to arrange it well in advance, because we have to find someone who can take care of our pets. If we don't find anyone we can't travel.

It is great to hear you have already visited some of the Asian countries. A trip to Asia is my dream and I am working hard to save up the money to go to Asia. Which country in Asia did you like the most? I live in Europe and I have visited many of the other European countries. I think that there are many nice places to visit in Europe and I have enjoyed my vacations in Europe a lot. I also think New Zealand is a beautiful country. I have never been there and it is very far from my own country, but I have seen many pictures from New Zealand because my family used to be the host family for a girl from New Zealand.

I really want to visit India in the future, that has been one of my dreams ever since I was a child. I need a visa to visit India, and I have decided to visit some of the other Asien countries first, because I am able to visit some of them without getting a visa. I also want to go Malaysia and visit my friend there

Yes, you have mentioned before about your country. I find it very interesting. I think we exchanged thoughts about thailand before and even my country in some other post. I can't remember which one it was. hehe.

A free trip would be great, I love travelling and it would be the best kind of present that I could get. I have visited all of the European countries that you mentioned and Denmark is my own country. I think that they all have lots of things to offer. I want to visit Thailand this year or next year (this year if I manage to save up the money for the trip) Brazil and Mexico could also be interesting places to visit, and I would like to travel around in South America and Central America for a couple of months and visit many different places.

Hi, Porcospino, I think also that it is a hard task to pick out the places. In Europe it would be England because I want to visit London. In Asia I'd like to visit Japan because I admire Japanese people and their culture. I like the books of Haruki Murakami, many of them have been translated in Bulgarian. Africa is a vast continent, maybe I would pick out to visit the national parks of Kenya. For South America I have the same choice as you. Because a few years ago a friend of mine made a trip to Chile and he was excited, he said that it was a different Universe! In Central America it would be Panama. The US are a huge country and the choice is really difficult. But I won't hesitate because I want to see New York.

I am happy to hear that you want to visit my country and the rest of Northern Europe. I think that there are many beautiful places here, but the winters are very cold so the best time to visit is during the one of the summermonths like June, July or August. I love Prague, too. I went there many years ago, but I would like to go back one day.

London is an interesting place, there is so much to see and do. I have been there a couple of times, but I have only seen a small part of London, and I would like to go back one day. I don't think that I have read any Japanese books, but I have tried to learn the Japanese language, and I would also like to visit Japan one day. Yes, it is very difficult to choose one place in the US, because there are so many places worth visiting. California and Florida are the first places that I think about, but there are plenty of other interesting places. My dream vacation in the US would be long vacation (several months) so that I got the chance to visit a lot of different places.

If I can have a long vacation in Europe I'd like to visit your country and the whole Northern Europe too - these are places that I've known only from films and books. I want to visit again Prague, I fell in love with this city.

Yes, it would be fantastic to get a free trip like that. Spain would be a good country to visit. I have been to the south of Spain, but I would like to visit Madrid and Barcelona one day. I love the Spanish climate, because the climate in my own country is quite cold. Japan is also on my travel wishlist. I really want to visit Japan in the future. I have Japanese friends who I want to visit, and I would love to travel around in Japan and visit many different places. I hope that both of our dreams will come true

Spain is a beautiful country. My ex-boyfriend and I visited Malaga, Sevilla and Grenada some years ago. We loved the Spanish climate because our country is cold compared to Spain or compared to your country. Morroco could be an interesting country to visit. My husband has been there in the past, and we have talked about visiting Morocco together one day. Maybe we will visit Spain, Portugal and Morocco at the same time. The Caribbean islands also sound interesting. Maybe one day

I want to go to Spain because of its Arabic backround. Morocco for the same reason and get some quiet and healing time in the desert.

I would adore to have a trip to see so many different countries. I would choose to visit places that I haven't yet been to but are on my travel wish list for the future. In Europe it would have to be Iceland so I could see the natural landscape. I would choose to visit Miami in Florida so I could explore tropical Florida. In Central America I would choose to visit San Jose in Costa Rica then I could pop up to Nicaragua and down to Panama as well at my own expense. I adore Central America and having seen Belize and Guatemala I am happy to see other parts of it. In South America I would choose the Galapagos Islands to see all the wildlife. In Africa it would be Madagascar to see the lemurs. I know it would be island hopping and snorkeling for me in the Philippines. I shall be visiting Argentina and Chile this year.

When I studied psychology one of my classmates was from Iceland. I think that it would be a very different experience to visit Iceland, it is one a few European countries that I haven't visited yet. San Jose in Costa Rica would also be my choice in Central America, that would give me the chance to visit my friend from Costa Rica, because he lives in San Jose. He has sent me many beautiful pictures from his country. I recently read a book called "100 wonders of the world" and the Galapagos islands was one of the places that was mentioned in the that book. It sounds like an interesting place to visit, but as I have never been to South America before my first choice would be Chile. Peru, Argentina and Brazil are also on my travel wishlist.

Hehe, nice discussion..I always love day-dreaming about all the places I'd like to travel to... Europe: Czech Republic (or Slovakia). My granpa was from there and it would be interesting to experience the culture! Asia: Japan for sure. I studied Japanese for almost 5 years between high school and college - I really loved it and was pretty good at it. I even started setting up a study abroad schedule but couldn't afford it . It would be awesome to put my language skills to the test and be immersed in it! South America: Argentina or Brazil would be awesome. I don't know that I could pick between the two, or explain why. Central America: Mexico or Costa Rica. I would love to be beach-side somewhere there lol. In the US: I live here, but I haven't been to California, Hawaii, or New York. Either of those places (but especially Hawaii) would be very cooL. HAPPY MYLOTTING!

I have been to the Czech republic and Slovakia. Prague is a beautiful city, but I also liked Bratislava a lot. A visit to Japan sounds awesome. I went to a Danish/Japenese school in my country where I learned a bit of the Japanese language and I was interested in taking a Japanese course in Japan, but I gave up the idea, because it was much too expensive for my budget. I have never been to Japan, but I hope will get the chance to visit Japan in the future.

Wow,free trip to 6 places, that would be great! In Europe, I'd definitely go to VENICE, Italy, I would eat at the Piazza and ride the gondola with my husband and a gondolier rows the boat while singing an italian ballad, and we smooch at the back, hmmm, hehehe...I can just imagine it...hehe...well anyways, In Asia, I'll go to Amanpulo Island, Palawan in the Philippines to enjoy the luxurious private island, bask in the sun and scuba dive to see breathtaking marine life. In Africa, I will go to Egypt and see the magestic Pyramids and ride a boat on the Nile River. In South America, I will go Peru and go to Machu Picchu and stand in awe at the spectacular lost city of the Incas. In central america, Of course, it is Belize. The barrier reef and the ancient mayan ruins are the ones that I definitely want to see before I die! and in the United States, I want to go to Sedona, Arizona and just take pictures of the wonderful Red Rocks!

Venice in Italy is a beautiful place, it is definately worth a visit. I have been there a couple of times and when I was there I got lost in the many small streets. I didn't have the money to pay for a gondola, so I just watched them and took pictures of them. I would like to visit Venice again. I have heard about Palawan, but I have never had the chance to visit the Philippines. I want to do that in the future. My ex-boyfriend went to Egypt, he saw the pyramids and sailed on the Nile, he says it was an amazing experience, but I have never been there myself. Peru and Machi Picchu are also on the list of places that I want to visit one day, and Belize, too. Yes, my travel wishlist is very, very long
