I travel a lot with my work to some pretty remote areas of NE BC, NW Alberta, the NWT and YT working with mostly First Nation communities. It's actually pretty cool as a lot of places a person would never get to in their lifetime and would never show up in some vacation planner.
This spring I went to Thailand (Koh Tao and Koh Samui) and Hong Kong. Also got my PADI open water diving certification and saw some amazing coral reefs. I really hope to one day get back to Asia to do some more exploring - wonderful people and wonderful experience.
Just recently bought a new cutting horse so am going to be campaigning her in BC, Alta., and the NW states so will get to see even more of the country closer to home.

I dream of taking my fiancee & soon to be wife, to australia. I would love to start out in sydney, work my way up to cairns, then on to new zealand.

I really wish she could scuba dive with me, but her ears will not allow it, perhaps she can snorkle a bit if she is carefull.

Well ... I was born in Quebec (yes I could be called a foreigner), have live as far north as Whitehorse, as far south as St. Pete Florida,
just about everywhere on Vancouver Island (Graduated in Gold River) and as far east as Libra West Africa.
And many many point in-between.

Hey, I've been to Winnipeg

Also been to Inuvik, Tuktoyaktuk, Cape Breton Island, Halifax, all over PEI, all over southern BC and as far west as camping in Tofino, and as far south as Havana Cuba. Visited all those places many, many years ago. Not much of a traveller anymore, though.

In my wildest dreams, though, I'd like to go to Ellesmere Island, the Gulf Islands, Patagonia S. America, and to Maui to visit friends who live there.

I have been coast to coast in Canada minus NFLD, Van/vic Island, and the territories. Done the Atlantic city thing which was awesome because all the streets are the monopoly board, and enjoyed Vegas lots.
If I could go anywhere I think it would be Easter Island

I've been to winnipeg to..unfortunetly (just kidding!)
It amazing what there is to see in canada alone. We have cousins moving here from england, and when we were camping with them, they marvelled at everything we take for granted. So open your eyes of your daily routine and look at the beauty, be it a majestic oak or the bald guy that waves the little ceasers pizza's sign...

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.
