"I would love to sail to as many exotic island destinations as possible. I've been to Hawaii and Bermuda, but I love to go to Bora Bora and Rapa Nui next."
"I have a bucket list, actually, and would love to tell you about it! A couple of years ago I made a list of the most fascinating UNESCO World Heritage sites and decided that I would choose one from North America, Central America, the Caribbean, South America, Africa, Asia, and Europe. So far, I have visited Leon Cathedral in Nicaragua, and Ephesus in Turkey. Next, I am planning for the Paleolithic Caves in Spain. It's important to me that I am well traveled and exposed to what our beautiful world has to offer."
"I love to travel and have had many great opportunities in the past few years. If I could choose any destination for my next, I would pick to stay at the Icehotel in Jukkasjarvi, Sweden. It's so interesting to me that I could stay in a hotel carved entirely out of ice. Also, the town has historic buildings to explore, such as an old church dating back to approximately 1607."

I love to travel, and I want to go to Italy. When I was working in the restaurant, I saw a lot of traditional Italian delicacies, such as Minestrone, Mushroom Risotto, Gelato, and so on. I wanted to go and taste them in person. On the other hand, I've seen a lot of pictures of Italy on the Internet. I think it's amazing! If I can go boating on the waterway in Venice, or lie on the beach in Sicily, I think it will be exciting.
