Travel Destinations

           “We travel not to escape life, but for life not to escape us”-unknown. There are so many thing I want to do in life, and traveling around the world is one of them. There are so many beautiful places on Earth and I want to see and experience them. The first place I would like to see is New York. It is a very realistic trip for me so I want to tackle it before leaving the country for other destinations. Next on the list is Greece. Greece is a country in Europe with gorgeous cities and the bluest of water. While there I would love to see the Acropolis of Athens, the Temple of Hephaestus, and Panathenaic Stadium. My next stop would be Rome, Italy. I'd have to visit the Colosseum, of course. The Galleria Borghese and Vatican Museums are also on the list. On to Paris, France. Seeing the Eiffel Tower lit up at night is a must. You can't forget to do a little shopping while in the fashion capital of the world. Ireland is next on the list. Ireland is such a breathtaking country as well. There are so many beautiful cities to visit; I don't think I'd ever be satisfied with Ireland. I'd always want another trip back. Last, but not least, is Australia. I want to spend a great amount of time here. If I wasn't soaking up some rays on the Gold Coast, then I'd defiantly be exploring. There so many exciting cities to visit, such as Canberra, Sydney, Melbourne, and Perth. There is no way you can go go Australia without seeing the Great Barrier Reef. Seeing all the colorful coral and the extensive marine life would be an amazing experience. I would also want to go to the Kakadu National Park and Sea life Sydney Aquarium. My favorite place would probably be the Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary. So your can see, I have quite a list of destinations. I one day hope to at least visit half of them.
