Yes, of course. Egypt is so fascinating. I would love to travel down the Nile.
Hahaha, well with all the Europeans on this forum, I've actually lost interest in Europe.They've become too familiar.
Certainly Africa has a tremendous mystery for me, but lately I've been interested in the far east. I would love to explore China. It's so large and apparently various. I'm not sure I will ever get to do any of this, but it's nice to let the imagination roam.

Bavaria. I lucked out last time I was there. The weather was perfect the whole time and it was absolutely GORGEOUS.
It was also the first "big" vacation my boyfriend and I took as a couple, so it was great to create these awesome memories with him.
YES!!! This is actually the sort of place I have in mind! But I want to be a little closer to the big city. I could easily live in a place like this, but I need to be close enough to London (even an hour away isn't too bad), or a place like Liverpool or Birmingham or even Manchester. I would like to live in a town like this, but I kind of need my "city life", too.I, at least, need easy access (meaning, not a day's drive away) to the city.
What is the closest city to Lincoln? Isn't it Nottingham? If I would end up in a town like this (if not exactly this one
), I would then have to decide whether I would want to live in a town near a big city (which I always lean towards) or a small city. Oh, decisions, decisions!

Oh, boy, is that corny!You know what? I would do the SAME thing!!!

Africa. I could spend a couple of years exploring the continent, what a trip that would be. I would start with a month or so in Egypt and then cycle from there down the Rift Valley to Kenya and go on a hiking safari, the thought of being attacked by lions would make you feel more alive than anything in the world.
After that it's off to South Africa and maybe some cage diving with great white sharks - ouch. From there I would make my up the West coast and spend a lot of time in the rain forests of Gabon.
Finally Morocco and a cycle tour of Tenerife in the Canary Islands before returning to the US.

Technically, Lady W, any place in UK that has a cathedral is a city - even St Davids in west Wales which is smaller than the village I live in is a city because of the cathedral!
If you mean near a city in the sense of metropolis, you might like York - mediaeval city, black and white houses, loads of atmosphere but only a short train ride from Leeds, which is not the mucky place it used to be, much cleaned up and modernised, as are Manchester, Liverpool and Brumigen. Lincoln is not too far from Nottingham or Sheffield, but I'm not sure these two have had the sort of urban regeneration those others have.

Did you walk up to the top of the Rathaus tower? I got such a kick out of how the stairs got smaller and smaller, and more and more steep!
I'm envious! Is it very warm right now?
The majority of my time was spent in and around Füssen and it was WARM.
