So last summer was the first time I solo-traveled—I’ve been places, but it’s always been organized whether through school or church.  I had gone to visit some friends who had recently moved to San Francisco, and I had a blast.  At some point I know I should probably share those experiences and post the pictures I took on Tumblr; I just haven’t really had the time to sit down and write it all out and transfer the photographs onto my computer’s hard drive.

Anyway, within the past year I’ve met and made a small handful of friends that are as interested in traveling as I am, and this summer I will be going to visit Atlanta, Georgia!  With that on my mind though, I thought it would be fun to share places I’ve always wanted to visit, and I actually think it’s feasible that I will be spending the next few years traveling.  So here’s my list (some places I am just a tad more specific):

In the U.S.

1. Hawaii
2. Los Angeles, California
3. San Francisco, California (LOVED it the first time, would love to go again!)
4. Seattle, Washington
5. Universal Studios & Disney World in Florida
6. Colorado
7. Ohio
8. North Carolina
9. South Carolina
10. New Hampshire
11. Massachusetts
12. Tennessee
13. New York (Been here on school trips, but now I’d like to try venturing on my own.)
14. Texas
15. Nevada
16. Pennsylvania (Haven’t been there in years; would like to go again.)

Canada

1. Montreal
2. Toronto
3. Vancouver

Abroad

1. Australia
2. Ireland
3. UK
4. Germany
5. Sweeden
6. Finland
7. Norway
8. Greece
9. Italy
10. France
11. Japan
12. New Zealand
13. Greenland
14. South Korea (Went there years ago; I wonder how different it is now.  SK is always constantly changing.)

I don’t have super specific plans for many of these places other than taking a look at all the popular tourist sites and maybe do a little additional exploring.  The order I’ve listed them is not necessarily the order I want to visit them in, it’s more of what came to mind first.  Anyway, I unofficially dub this list the bucket list of places where I might potentially see myself living in the future, even if only for a short while.  Yeah, I know, long title.

On that note, I encourage readers to feel free to share your own travel lists on this entry, or to share your insights/advice/recommendations if you’ve visited any of these places!  🙂

In other news, Fast & Furious 6, Epic, and Part III of The Hangover all come out this weekend, so you can be sure there’s going to be more movie reviewing happening on this blog in the near future!  Until then, see you all next time!
