UAE
UK
and Hawaii


I think its a curious list.

Hawaii?
Never met anyone who did not enjoy Hawaii (just the sheer natural beauty).

UAE: You must have had a bad experience in Dubai since you posted that you left here in November and since have started posting. Must miss something or somebody/

UK: I see your point. But seriously many reasons to visit the UK.

Freaking reasons:
*Saudi Arabia ( I read about religious men hunting down women, teenagers with long hair cuts and 2-year-old girls that wear short dresses!)


yemen is a beautiful country, plus my ancestors are from there to begin with, might be dangerous but its a great hang out if you know some people there.
the only place i would say to go to is Kaaba(Mecca) and Madina, no other place is worth it.

I miss someone very much, I hate to see her work 12 hours a day 6 days a week just to barely live, cost of living is so high there.
And Hawaii is the same too high tourist trap ect, the Virgin Isles and Alaska are much prettier.

UK: I see your point. But seriously many reasons to visit the UK.

You really would rule out an entire continent? There are some places in Africa that are so gorgeous you wouldnt beleve it. Seriously, try rafting down the Nile or tracking gorillas in Uganda. Most villagers there are extremely friendly and there is are some extremely interesting and vibrant cultures there. If thats too much for you S. Africa has all the comforts of home. I really wouldnt group the whole continent together with some war torn wastelands like Iraq and Afganistan.

3 places I won't visit? That's a tough one!

USA (been to all 50 states and DC, there's barely anything that I haven't seen))
Iraq (might change once the war ends)
Afghanistan (same as above)

I think that everywhere is something to visit, but you just need to do some reserach to find it

1. Pakistan
2. Zimbabwe
3. Saudi Arabia, but I am wondering if I might end up caving in on this one in order to stick another pin in my Facebook travel map.

Three places I won't visit:-
[1] Iraq ; [2] Afghanistan [3] Darfur in Ethiopia.

There are a few dangerous countries in Africa. Places in West Africa , like Sierra Leone , are dodgy. Keep clear!! Life's too short........don't make it shorter !!!
Go to www.visit-the-world.co.uk . The safer countries of the world are mentioned . Try www.visit-sorrento.co.uk .......Amalfi, Positano, Capri, Vesuvius , Pompeii , Ravello .....wonderful memories!!

Spot my error?

Darfur is in Sudan, not Ethiopia . Don't fancy either country !! Or Chad!!

Some SERIOUS tribal conflicts in Africa.

One of the BEST holidays is cruising ! Very civilised on a cruise ship!! Wonderful food !! Good entertainment !! And a Different port or country almost every day!! Fantastic!!

Where did you go, Westcliffe-on-sea ????

When I was in London I was always partying in clubs until 3-4 a.m. There are so many open in Clerkenwell, Camberwell, Brixton, Hoxton, mad places.

You are the villager mate, because you don't understand when you are new in town that you don't know where to go. I would have said New York was dead after 9 p.m. if I hadn't friends to tell me where to go to party while I was there. Seriously, if you were wandering around Oxford Street area at 9 p.m. you need your head examined, it's shabby, dead, and just for tourists. What a dumb post I don't believe you ever went there, it's just a troll, right? :D

englands night life is not really "exciting" unless you into the clubbing scene. sorry to disappoint you but i am not really a clubbing guy. yeh i dont drink either. i guess that makes me MORE boring YAY. but i guess i am sober enough to watch some piss drunk guy make a fool himself and end up lying there in his own piss :D
