Hey Rory,

I stayed on one of the gulf islands a couple of years back. Outside the back door was a cliff that was maybe 50 feet abouve the ocean.
I stood on the cliff and looked straigh down as a pod of about 15 killer whales swam under me. Talk about WAY COOL!:biggrin:

:biggrin: Actually I have been to most every major city, coast to coast, thanks to my participation in competitive 5-pin bowling. Also Hawaii for my daughters wedding. Never made it overseas. I would like to go to Ireland, where my family came from in the 1800,s.

Of the places I have been the nicest is Spain.

The reasons are:

1. Perfect climate
2. Friendly people
3. Deep and rich history/culture
4. Easy transportation, excellent train system
5. Great food

Anyway if you are looking for a place to travel that is where I would go.

I would love to go to spain, my parents went back in the 80's, along with portugal, and england (where my mom is from) scotland so on. My sister just got back from europe after 2 years of working travelling etc. It seems now most of europe is expensive...and I probaly won't be going there. Now asia on the other hand is cheap. I stayed at this amazingly clean hostel in malaysia for 5$ a night! internet, breakfast, showers and comfortable beds,awesome. Some people at the hostel said they had better in cambodia for 2$ a night!, asia is definetly one of the first places to travel, plus air asia flies to most places in asia for under 100$.

from peoples experinece where is the best place to get a work visa for? We have some friends in australia so its just a jump from asia to there.

The work visas depend on your age too, if you are under 30 it is a lot easier.
