New Zealand. New Zealand. New Zealand.
There are a few places I want to travel to. Dubai. Ireland. Brazil. Japan. China. India.
But mostly New Zealand. I've wanted to go since 7th grade. Yet surprisingly enough, my daydreams have stopped there.
I imagine all the vacations I'm going to take everywhere else. But New Zealand? It's like I don't dare imagining it because I'm afraid my imagination won't do it justice.
So I have Gmail, and Gmail has this strip of text above your inbox advertising things related to your mail. I have my comments on my blog forwarded to my email, and one of my friends was talking about hiking. I'm not terribly good at hiking, but I'm not terribly terrible at it either. Hiking is one of my favorite things.
So when the advertisement in Gmail was about a hiking trip through New Zealand, I got excited at the idea. And I IMAGINED it. For the first time.
Maybe this is something weird to get excited about...but...
I JUST WENT HIKING IN NEW ZEALAND, YOU GUYS!!!!
Mind you it was imaginary and nowhere near as cool as it will be in reality...but still. It was amazing and beautiful. I recommend everyone take a trip there to hike, whether the trip requires a passport or not.

My eighth-grade dream was and still is Scotland. The end.
You need to go to New Zealand for real. I went to England for real about four years ago. It was probably the best 8 days of my life. Just do it. Save your money. Watch for good deals. Get a group together. Just do it! :)
But in the meantime, I go to places in my mind too. England mostly. But I'd also like to go to Andalusia Spain, Ireland, Olympia Greece, Hawaii, Germany, Austria, Switzerland... the list goes on forever.
my ebay name is after where i used to escape in my head during that previous bad marriage time. and then i met doug who had the same dream and had actually lived it. and gave me part of my dreams and now will make me live there. :)
but i don't want you to live there. a long visit is good enough.
