    England to see James Purefoy. Finland for a PURE Metal experience.

    There's so many places I'd love to visit, mainly Japan, well all of Asia really.

    After watching a Sigur Rós DVD I also decided I'd like to visit Iceland after I've been to University.

    My place of choice is indeed exotic and untraveled, a zone wherein I find no rays of civilization have reached.

    Indeed I want to visit place wherein all these, mundane or commonplace realities have little siginifiance.


    I choose to go there where I have to unlearn or forget the realities I am stormed with.

    Wherein I will behave like primitive men not smeared by modernistic things.

    “Those who seek to satisfy the mind of man by hampering it with ceremonies and music and affecting charity and devotion have lost their original nature””

    “If water derives lucidity from stillness, how much more the faculties of the mind! The mind of the sage, being in repose, becomes the mirror of the universe, the speculum of all creation.

    Heh there are so many.

    Most of all India probably. Look a bit over my paternal-roots. Meet some relatives I have never seen but want to have a look at. Also travel around Simla, Kashmir, and all the beautiful places.

    Next comes Iran, again for roots....and also because Irani halwa was amazing. My paternal-grandfather brought this sweet and very delicious thingy when he came back. Don't remember eating anything more delicious. Hmmmmm.

    The other countries include China, Japan, Turkey, England, Finland and Baltic countries.

    I'd love to see Ireland, Australia and England. There are lots of other countries, but these are on top of the list.

    That sounded lovely Anti I agree, nothing can beat time with family.

    Wow Antiquarian! I haven't seen my brother for two years either (though we often chat on phone and internet) but still it seems like a looong time...oh and I would obviously like to have a trip back to my childhood too....

    So many for me i don't know how I could even choose. So i guess i won't even add one. Let it be said that almost everywhere is interesting for something or other. How's that for a politically correct answer?

    I would go to Mecca and Medina in Saudi Arabia.

    I'm not Arabian, but I am a Muslim, and those places are the centre of Islamic culture, from Abraham right down to Muhammad [peace be with them]

    Every year millions of Muslims make the pilgrimage to Mecca, and I hope to do so soon, if Allah Wills.

    Denmark, everyone seems very relaxed from everything I know about the place. And it looks SO beautiful!
