10 Places I Will Visit Before I Die
Everyday, I sit at my computer and hammer out as much creative stuff as I can in a day. Most days, that is no problem. But, sometimes, I need a change of scenery, some movement, some action, some newness to stir me. Traveling is my favorite way to get things shakin’. Even if it is a mini-trip to the beach near my house or leaving the office to work out of a coffeeshop for the day, for me small changes can produce big results in the way of productivity and inspiration. On occasion, though, I need something huge, something that will do more than just stir, but stagger…something so awesome it completely changes the way I see everything after experiencing it. On those occasions, only a big time adventure to will do. So, before I die, I will be packing up the wife and kids and heading out to adventure, to see some of the world’s most amazing wonders. Here are a few I will be checking out in the coming years…you’re welcome to join me.
1. Preachers Rock, Preikestolen, Norway
2. Four Seasons Hotel – Bora Bora
3. Capilano Suspension Bridge, Vancouver, British Columbia
4. Seljalandsfoss Waterfall on the South Coast of Iceland
5. Petra – Jordan (at night)
6. Riomaggiore, Italy
7. Sky Lantern Festival – Taiwan.
8. Norway
9. Yushan National Park, Taiwan
10. Tian Tan Buddha on Lantau Island, Hong Kong
Adding an eleventh, because I dig caves…
11. Devetashkata Cave – Bulgaria
and adding an twelfth because my wife is Irish and she loves her some clovers…
12. Ben Bulben at County Sligo, Ireland
I’d like to suggest an addition to this list, perhaps a #13 as “The Warm Embrace of a Hug from Allan Branch”.
I have already been there.
Better start working out more. I see a lot of walking in your future.
