Whimsical


Dreaming of Africa. The river Nile separating Uganda and Sudan


Is the list of places i have down in my mind that i will go to, in the near future, if possible - one thing the India trip taught me was that everything is a possibility, don't rule it out just yet. Going to India was pretty much a last minute, spur of the moment decision - basically looking at some books and going, hmm, this is nice, i think i'd go. Then finding cheap flights (to Chennai), and it was all systems go.

  • The African coast, down the eastern seaboard from Sudan to Mozambique.
  • South America, going from Panama all the way down to Argentina.
  • The Trans-Siberian express. Longest railway in the world, zipping from Beijing through Mongolia and Siberia to St. Petersburg.

  • Travelling the Silk Roads, going from south western China through the Central Asian 'stans to Iran to Turkey and Europe.


Does it happen to just me, or does looking at a globe inspire great feelings of wanderlust and anticipation of adventures ahead?
