snugglekittyAlright. I have a question. I know from your lj that you have traveled within the United States. How do you feel about travel? Is there anywhere in either the USA or the World that you would really like to travel to, and why?
I don't have very strong feelings about travel in either direction. I don't think "Travel is great!" or "I hate to travel." I consider myself a bit of a homebody - I like to be home. I enjoy exploring new areas of Boston, going to new restaurants here, finding parks I haven't walked in before - but I like that it's close to my home. I like going to the same library branch week after week, seeing the same waiters and store clerks time and again. I like revisiting places that are at least a little familiar, like Atlanta and Northampton. I would definitely visit LA and Paris again.
With that being said, some places that I'd like to see that would be totally new to me - India, more of the Caribbean (I've been to Jamaica, but nowhere else), San Francisco, Ireland. For India and Ireland, I'm most interested in seeing old religious stuff there, and feeling what the energy is like. I like warm sandy beaches with warm water, and San Francisco seems like it has a lot of cool stuff in it.
A few places I'm not really interested in visiting: Seattle, the Middle East, Russia, anywhere that's war-torn, the lands of Faerie.
I am planning to get a new passport this spring, so that should open up the possibilities of places I can go to. I'd like to visit Montreal, too.
