I actually want to visit most of the Eastern European countries. I hate touristy stuff and while I want to see some of the can't-miss stuff like the Pyramids, Eiffel Tower, etc., I want to see what life is there.

I'd love to visit just about any country. North Korea might be a little tricky. I've been to Germany, France, Spain, Switzerland and Italy. For some reason I don't count Canada or Mexico as other countries.

As far as the US, yeah Alaska would be a lot of fun. I've been to most of the touristy places in the lower 48 from Seattle to San Diego, Miami to Bangor and everywhere in between. My dad loved to travel when we were kids and I kept at it once I got older. I'd really like to one day visit Cheyenne Mtn and show my kids what I used to do in the military.

Outside:

-Costa Rica
-I'll give a 3rd to southernmost South America, with a stop in Patagonia on the way down there.
-All over Eastern Asia, specifically Hong Kong (my little brother is living/working there pretty much indefinitely as of this past spring)
-Southern France
-Southern Italy/Sicily (visit my roots- been to Northern Italy, never south)
