South America for me. Done with Afrika, live in Europe. Asia and Australasia all too much part of Mondial-Politik for my tastes.

Time to learn Spanish?

I love everywhwere :-) Maybe I will visit the place most people vote for! I really enjoy Africa but mainly for wildlife; I love Asia but mainly for people and culture; I love Europe because we rock :-) My pop this time was Oceania because you have the adventure of Outback Aussie, the beauty of the Barrier Reef, the warmth and exuberance of the people, the weirdness of the wildlife ... and then all the little islands of the Pacific to pose around surrounded by grass-skirted ladies!

I almost put down Antartica, but I'm a wuss and I hate getting cold, so I put down Africa instead.

I'm pretty scared of that place though, there's a lot of real nasty things going on.

We're thinking of a better holiday/honeymoon over the Crimbo period, but not sure where yet.

Ideas greatfully received.

It’s Asia for me. Spent some time in Japan working but didn’t have my SLR with me at the time. What a mistake. So many photo-ops. Japan is a beautiful county. I would like to take a tour of China as well. So much history.


Not sure why, but call me JJ.

I'd love to do a photo excursion through Europe.

What's "Oceania"??

In the absence of "Australia", I'd have to guess that, but I've never heard it referred to as that...

Nice dude ... a nice fireside romp ;) On my honeymoon I booked a Swedish Hotel in Central London before flying out to Thailand next day. It had single beds!

Petra. Jordan is easily accessed. Plus being Canadian has a couple advantages. Less heat at the border.

Wow that place looks amazing!

I picked Europe because I have always wanted to visit the UK, and go to places like that ^. Plus I have a couple of friends who spent a couple years there, and when they talk about it, it sounds amazing. I will probably never get the chance to leave the country though :(.
