Lol Really? I'm not sure what our closest town is... Well if you mean towns that have shops and houses and stuff and aren't just a road with a few houses and a milkbar... Maybe Allansford? Or Koroit? Both are about 20 minutes from here by car. Small little England.
amortentia_lover
we are small smile.gif bad place to play hide and seek. hehe
My parents are back from Hong Kong! ohmy.gif *jealous* i want to go there!!! but apparently the weather wasn't that good - hehe

If I could pick 3 place to visit it would be
1) England(anywhere), I've seen pictures and it looks so beautiful.
2) Austrilia, exspecially the coast, It seem like it be a beautiful vacation spot.
3) Greece- The design of the village is neat to look at. and it would be awesome inspriation for artists.
little_aussie_witch92
Yay Australia made yet another list tongue.gif
Well I'm annoyed now. You know how I'm going to Malaysia? Well my Mum and Dad have decided they're going to go to Broome while I'm gone! Honestly, we NEVER go on holidays, and they have to go while I'm away, don't they. I wanna go to Broome!! Unfair dry.gif
amortentia_lover
my parents do that all the time. you learn to live with it. dry.gif
how long 'til you go to Malaysia? is it with the exchnage girl?
i'd love to go to Malaysia, it's be awesome. ( but then i live in England so Europe excites me )
really guys why do you all like England? i swear it's not that good...
.X.
Accidentprone25
When are you leaving for Malaysia? I would love to go somewhere for break, but sadly nowhere. Why are you going to Malaysia? And how long are you staying. Sounds fun!!
amortentia_lover
She's going for an exchnage i think .. i want to go too ! ( hello are you there?! )
one of my mates used ot live in Malaysia, *jealous* England's so dull sad.gif
.X.
Accidentprone25
I wish I could go too.
And America's pretty boring too!
amortentia_lover
America ? BORING?! * gasp *
i'd love to go there!
Especially California, avoiding the druggies and drunkies, i'd head for the beach!
New York would be awesoem for shopping biggrin.gif biggrin.gif biggrin.gif
.X.
Accidentprone25
Where I live it is boring. And california doesn't sound boring wish I was there now. But thats about 3,000 miles away. New york is closer, but not on the coast. I maen not many beaches
amortentia_lover
I do love the beach... sad.gif
New York, 5th avenue ... i'd love to go shopping htere! but it's sooooo far away from me! England is pretty rubbish on the shopping front!
.X.
Accidentprone25
I do wish I was at the beach right now. I don't care if Britian has bad shopping, I 'd just love to visit there.
amortentia_lover
As you please... but i don't like it sad.gif
I want to move to Monaco when im older. now that is a gorgeous place. i adore it there! I want to go back sad.gif
.X.
Accidentprone25
I want to go to Greece and see the temples, and it seems like a great inspirational place.
amortentia_lover
Ohh i want to go to ( umm what's the name... ) it's this aztec city, on top of a mountain. i want to go there! umm i think it's somewhere near Peru or Chile. Ok so slightly different areas there, but it could be either!haha
.X.
little_aussie_witch92
Hello Peeps!
Yeah I'm going to Malaysia on a study tour with my school for 11 days. My inconsiderate parents are going to Broome (In Western Australia, one of the two states I have never been to) while I'm gone. Meanies.
I would love to go to both America and England, but England would be first on my list tongue.gif Karl and Susan on Neighbours are in London at the moment (on the show) and it looks so beautiful! It does help that they keep running into celebrities tongue.gif Anyway, England sounds great biggrin.gif
I'm looking forward to buying heaps of cheap stuff in Malaysia; it's supposed to be cheaper than here tongue.gif
amortentia_lover
I haven't watched neighbours for three weeks running * gasp *
they wouldn't just keep running into celebrities, if you're lucky you might see one... although i suppose it varies depending on where you are in London..
.X.
little_aussie_witch92
Well they did! They met this guy... I think he was a soccer player (he has a big part in the story, as it turns out). Then they met Emma Bunton and Susan got her autograph tongue.gif And there were other English actors playing just people, according to my TV magazine. Anyway, London looks so awesome. Wish I could go.
I am shocked and horrified that you haven't watched Neighbours for three weeks! Oh the shame!
amortentia_lover
well i keep coming on here and then i look at the clock and i've missed it dry.gif
really? ! they wouldn't just run into celebs!
do you know what area of London they were in ?! Was it central with all teh tourist attractions?
.X.
little_aussie_witch92
Oh yeah I'm a total expert on the different parts of London tongue.gif
I don't know. They were in London, they went on a Double Decker bus (may I say, awesome). They walked along this river and there were all these homeless people... They stayed at a backpackers. They went up this building where... Nah I won't spoil the surprise (If you can get off Veritaserum and actually watch it tongue.gif)
amortentia_lover
well it wont be on for 6 weeks here.
umm well they're near teh Thames then ( the river )
i doubt they'd see celebs if homeless people were walkign along.
I think neighbours is a bit unbelievable there! oh well, i love the drama!
.X.
little_aussie_witch92
Lol the Celebs weren't there when they saw the homeless people! They kinda went all over London anyway, so there were loads of places they could have seen them.
My sister just got back from Fiji; she went for a wedding. I'm jealous; I know I'm goign to Malaysia, but that's not for three months!
And oh my god I got my passport photo taken and it's HORRIBLE. I am so upset with how bad it is. I'm so ugly!
amortentia_lover
ughh my passport phot was terrible too sad.gif
Fiji?!?!! AWESOME ! you seem to know people who have been just about everywhere!
I'm trying to persuade my mum to tkae me to venice... not sure if it's working or not
.X.
little_aussie_witch92
Haha not quite everywhere. Yeah my sis went to Fiji. Sounds like she had awesome fun too, without her three kids, who were here sad.gif Not that I really minded. Her daughter is so beautiful!!! I couldn't let her go tongue.gif
Anyway, Venice looks beautiful; I'd love to go. Actually I'd love to go anywhere
! I feel culturally and internationally deprived eeek.gif
amortentia_lover
I feel the same way *sob*
Hopefully i can go to Venice *hopes*
your sister had kids? i think umm what's her name - Acacia ( was that her name ?! )
.X.
little_aussie_witch92
Haha well done! Yes her name is Acacia tongue.gif She does have kids and the boys are crazy and annoying, but I love the little girl!! She's just so cute!!! Ah don't you just love babies?
Hmm... My friend wants me to go to Thailand with her after we finish school. I don't know though. Actually she wants to spend the year after school travelling before going to University; I plan on going straight to Uni before I forget everything!!
amortentia_lover
really? i plan on travelling, backpacking in Europe and visiting Borneo ( that's the plan at least.. )
Aww i love babies / little kids. Whenever I see one of the little nursery kids at our school we both squeal and go "i want one!" - they're adorable...<3
.X.
After the Burial
I would love to go to Costa Rica. I love jungles and rain forests. Besides, the incredibly diverse fauna and flora would be something I could enjoy years after I leave. And swimming and volcanos and.....
amortentia_lover
... the list goes on and on
i'd love to go there too, i seem to say that about everywhere people say though, i pretty much want to go everywhere! haha
biggrin.gif expensive travelling though...
.X.
little_aussie_witch92
As much as I want to go to all these beautiful places, I definitely intend on going to University beforehand. I'm serious; I would forget everything!! I wanna get Uni out of the way before I go and have fun biggrin.gif
Kids are so cute biggrin.gif My sister's daughter (Tabi) is just the most gorgeous little girl ever! And I love my friend's little bro; he is so cute!! They're all adorable though; I wonder if I was ever that cute?? Probably not tongue.gif
Oh, and an update on the Neighbours thing; this week Karl meets Parkinson! (I think that's his name... my Mum and Dad used to watch his show)
askingforit
I would love to go to Barcelona, Spain, if I was able to skate better. It has the nicest ledges, ground and scenery. Too bad I'm not real good at skating. (skateboarding)
little_aussie_witch92
I don't really understand why you need to be good at skateboarding to go to Barcelona... Why not just go for the sights?? You said it has nice scenery...
amortentia_lover
yeah surely skateboarding would ruin the experience for yourself and other people.
i know if i was there and some random person started skating around i'd be really annoyed. lol. scenary there is gorgeous though... another for the list !
I'm sure you wouldn't forget everything Elle !
.X.
little_aussie_witch92
Haha I wouldn't be so sure!! But I agree; if I went to a foreign country I'd want to be looking at the beautiful scenery and experiencing cultural differences and all that exciting stuff! Skateboarding would not really be top of my list tongue.gif
soccerchik
I really want to go to the Atlantis resort in the Bahamas. My friend went theere and he said it was really fun. He also said that the best part was the water slide that goes into a shark tank! It sounds like so much fun!

I also want to go to Disney Land in Paris! I've been to bothe Disney resorts in the Us multiple times so I want to go to one in another country that would be cool!
d_r_a_g_o_n_h_e_h_1_3
Well, Australia has always been the main one, it seems like it would be a lot of fun there, with all the animals, bugs, and of course, the great barrier reef. I've recently decided that Worstechire, England would be fun, (worsteshire sauce, yum...) We met some really nice people from there. Also, Germany, very good chocolate... I've been to Costa Rica, it was great, the rainforest was wonderful, also I liked the warm weather, not constant snow all the time. If any1 goes there, go on a zipline tour, amazing!!! I have been to mexico, Maine, Alaska, and am presently in Utah. (Leaving tomorrow, spring break nearly over sad.gif )
little_aussie_witch92
Oh I've always wanted to go to the Great Barrier Reef; it's so beautiful. And I love animals like Koalas, Wombats, Kangaroos, Wallabies, Platypus, Echidnas etc, but I don't get why you'd want to see bugs?? Bugs are not fun at all. I especially hate mosquitos and flies!
amortentia_lover
The great barrier reef would be amazing smile.gif did you know it's one of the most dangerous places in the world?! and there are jellyfish & SNAILS the size of your thumb that can kill you. Snails, i know, weird...
.X.
little_aussie_witch92
Wow, I didn't know that. Not so sure I wanna go there any more... tongue.gif
Hmm... trying to find things to talk about that are on-topic.
I've been to 5 states in Australia, did you know? Victoria (well duh), Tasmania, NSW, South Australia and Queensland. But Western Australia is too far away and I can't be bothered going, and NT is way too hot! My friend's brother lives there and she went and visited him and said it was melting tongue.gif
But I wanna go and see Uluru, and the Great Barrier Reef. One day I'll get there tongue.gif
Kam
wow i really want to go to a lot of places... first of all i want to go to the dominican republic or the caribbean. it looks so pretty over there. I also want to go to Ireland. Thats where my ancestory is. lol. i want to go to England to see London and see Kings Cross and stuff like that. i also want to go to Hawaii. never been there before and i want to get a tan lol.
i also want to go back to a place. my favorite vacation ever, Norht Carolina on my aunt and uncles farm lol. i love going there because its far away like all the way across the country for me and i love riding on airplanes lol.
I also want to go to the Atlantis and the Bahams. sry this is so long. i want to go to a lot of places.
amortentia_lover
Woah loadsa places there smile.gif
Has anybody here been to the Caribbean? it's too far away from me...
I really want to go to Turkey and Morocco, but it's between Europe and more eastern areas, so that there's supposed to be quite a lot of fighting going on, and it wouldn't be safe for two women ( me and my mum ) to be wandering round looking at sights...not the best idea apparently. dry.gif hmph
I'm going back to Devon this year ( south west of England ) with my friend, we went last year, it was great fun smile.gif and then i'm going to Poland with my school too smile.gif
.X.
little_aussie_witch92
You go everywhere sad.gif It's too hard to go many places because everywhere is so far away from here! Like Europe and America are so far away! We can go to Asia and Antarctica... tongue.gif
amortentia_lover
i've only been to Europe!
America is too far way as well, it's like an eight hour flight from here, and Australia is a 24 hour flight! *gasp*
wow visiting antartica would be sooo cool biggrin.gif i'd love to visit there sometime, but it's too cold! lol
.X.
soccerchik
Yeah Antartica would be cool. But for me if I'm going on Vacation I don't want to go somewhere where I might freeze. But in 2 weeks and some days I get to go to Grand Junction for band. And skip school! Not that Grand Junction is all that exciting. It's like not enough people signed up to go to Disney land so instead we're going to Grand Junction! At least I'm missing school!

Lol Well both Europe and America are a 24 hour flight. Bali (closest) is a 5 hour flight. Eight hours to America? Pfft. That's nothing. tongue.gif
amortentia_lover
I'd love to go to Bali!!! happy.gif
really? our shortest flight is about an hour to France, or to the north of England ( but people normally drive that )
you can get pretty much anywhere in Europe under 4 hours flight!! biggrin.gif

HPFanatic2
Well, I've never been outside of the country, unfortunatley, but if I ever got the chance, 3 places I would love to visit are:

England: This is the top place I want to go to. Not just because all the HP actors came from there, but because it sounds so awesome there. I've read a ton of books that are set in England and it just sounds so cool! But I guess the books are just fiction, I don't know, the people there just seem more mature than Americans.

Italy: Again, I got this idea from a book, called Saffy's Angel. lol, you can tell I read a lot.

Greece: When I saw the movie The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, and it showed Lena there, I totally fell in love with it. It is soo pretty there!

Good question... smile.gif
I'd like to visit many places, for instance, England, Russia, Italy, South Africa, Australia, Egypt, Perú...and so on
Why?? Because I love travelling, and I like meeting people from different places and learning about different cultures and societies. I find it relaxing
amortentia_lover
Ok how come England was first on your lists - i lvie here and i just don't see why it attracts so many visitors.... ah well

i love that, making friends and acquaintances in different countries is so fun smile.gif i once spent all afternoon playing with a spanish girl who i couldn't talk to at all,( i was six or something so i knew no spanish at all! ) but we had the best time ever ( then she gave me head live which kinda sucked...) haha

I'd love to go to Flordia, Orlando again. I have been there before i went to the Walt Disney World Resort. I've been twice and i would love to go again. It's really great. Plus all of the rides and everything think there. laugh.gif biggrin.gif
