"Tour some islands in the South Pacific in a canoe" -- it both pains me and makes me elated that there are more islands there than anyone could ever get to in their lifetime...as long as they are sitting behind desks.
ReplyDelete"Take the Trans-Siberian railway to Mongolia" - Mongolia is high on my list.
My main one is that I'd like to be flown into a remote Alaskan cabin on a lake. Bring all the supplies and company to live there until the snows return.
I have a similar dream about spending the winter in Vermont in a cabin with a bunch of really creative people and just making things all winter long and listening to music and drinking hot chocolate and cooking.....
