|
 |
I'm not talking about the attractor, the ones I mean are still on Earth – thankfully.
Don't you feel a strange need of going somewhere, anywhere. A country in general or to a specific piece of rock you simply must see, touch or visit. Like an innate voice telling you to go there.
The problem is that you don't really know what to do or expect. You can't justify the trip nor find any reason to go at all.
Upon exposing your plans you are often met with fierce resistance from the people around. But I've realized that if you can justify lying on a beach for weeks not doing anything there's really no need to give reason to your own expeditions. I – for one – can't see the fun in rushing about monuments and getting wankered on day's end all the time.
Like, whenever you launch Google Earth you subconsciously spin the globe around 'til these places. Happened to you too?
Places that draws me to 'em are the Kuril islands, Kazakhstan and far-eastern Russia and far-western U.S. Generally any place which is an geographical extreme. Same for the Falklands or Kergeulen islands.
Enough about me! Share your thoughts, I'm sure you have at least one of these places dwelling within.
I'm well aware that this whole thing may backfire and I'm left looking like a dork but that's a price I'm willing to pay!

In high school I made a list, about 100 of famous places I'd like to see.
I still believe that one day I might visit all that I wanted back in high school ^^

Famous or not, might as well be a glade in the middle of Siberia. While I'm generally being a bit reluctant to give in to new-age spiritualism and whatnot I think it's well worth visiting these places. Or it could be of pure curiosity as well.
