Wishes for 2011. Well maybe not just 2011....

Dear Universe, We decided to make our own list of places we want to see. Why use another person's list? Well at least that was what we thought till we actually came up with our very own, and realised how boliao we were. But. They are our dreams. So pfft to anyone who says we have nothing better to do.


So here it is...





  • Go to galapagos island and ride on a giant turtle

  • See the wildebeest migrate on the plains of Tanzania. Take some NatGeo worthy shots.

  • Ride on those dog sleds in erm some cold snow-filled country. Alaska?

  • Visit at least one country with a name that ends with -stan. Gorge self on beluga (thats just Ching)

  • See the Northern lights while lying on the snow

  • Live on one of the Greek islands. Pick olives.

  • Stay in a meditation retreat. My pick is at the Western Ghats. But anywhere can la.

  • Go to Israel and actually get your passport chopped

  • Stay in a winery and stomp on grapes. Have beautiful meals every evening with gorgeous wines to match.

  • Pull a tapioca plant from it's roots in some farm.

  • Eat pasta in Italy

  • Go to Ladakh and visit that huge glacier. Meet the military there and try and persuade them to give us their cool shades.

  • Travel round the Himalayas completely, see all the cities surrounding these breathtaking mountains

  • Visit the Silk Road, starting with Xinjiang.

  • Sit in an igloo and have a hot drink

  • Gallop across a plain on a horse. Must be a PLAIN and it has to be a GALLOPing pace. Think Liv Tyler in Lord of the Rings.

  • See whalesharks, mola mola, mantras and that sardine run. All at a go, so we don't waste time.

  • Have the biggest fattest cigar in Havana, and wash it down with a sip of cognac

  • Wander the Annapurna range

  • Hum that silly tetris song while walking around St Petersburg

  • Go to New Orleans to stalk Anne Rice. Ask her why she gave Lestat a name that sounds so unsexy

  • See Troy in Turkey. Oh and find out if turkeys actually some from. LOL

  • See the smallest volcano in the world in the Philippines. Summit it and put a BIG-ASS sign like those idiots do when they summit a mountain.

  • Relax at a beautiful beach at the Seychelles.

  • Visit the Sequoia forests in California. Live in one of those trees

  • Stay in a houseboat in Kerala

  • Travel around Laos.

  • Smoke weed legally in amsterdam


  • Go to Georgia, the one near Azerbaijan, not in the US
