Out of Pod Experience

Hey.

I'm not a person who are going on vacations outside of my country (Norway). Because of that, i have recently been more intrested in places where i would love to visit in the future.

In my younger days when i was around 14-15 years old (i'm 30 now), i was down in Lanzarote (Canary Islands) where everything was new to me. I remember everything from that trip and i simply fell in love with that place. But as i love Lanzarote and the place around Lanzarote, i also got more intrested in the neighbor islands.

So i found out that there is an island called 'Fuerteventura' (neighbor island to Lanzarote). I then started to look at different videos from Fuerteventura on YouTube and fell completely in love with that place to.

So i found this video that shows the beauty of Fuerteventura: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V2TEHuuOcuw

And today i just stumbled upon this amazing video from Fuerteventura: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Lyp6UK7CUg

That place is just.........beautifull and really nice in so many ways.

So as i want to see where you others have your vacation paradises so i can see if other places will interest me, then tell me about what places that are your vacation paradise and please share a video from the place to if you can?

One of my closest friend here i live is going to Rhodos on sunday on his summer vacation. And that place also looks really nice.

So please share where your vacation paradises is .

Hell.

Vacation paradise? In a word: home.

Aside from the annual trip to Iceland I practically never go on holidays except when someone drags me along (for major family birthdays and the like). Not that I'm miserable while I'm there (I enjoy the sights and local culture (nearly) as much as the next man), I just can't be bothered to go anywhere.

However, If I were to go anywhere it would probably be a tour around Europe to look at... engineering. For example, I've long wanted to visit Bremerhaven and see U-2540 (I'm a bit of a WW2 buff).

Well, that or just go wherever the roads take me. To simply start driving and see where I end up is an appealing idea...

Yosemite in the winter after a fresh snowfall is an absolutely incredible sight. I've seen some awe-inspiring vistas, but that particular place has always stuck with me.

Hanging off half dome. Hoping to do the same soon with Denali.

Home ... in peace.

i can only speak for places i have been to. i've not been outside of the united states so far. the outer banks of north carolina has been the pinnacle of vacations for me to date. my ex-boyfriends family owns a beach house out there. beautiful and relatively remote. peaceful with very few people around. something to be said for waking up in the morning and going for a walk and basically having the entire stretch of sand as far as you can see in either direction completely to yourself.

but there are some places i've never been that i believe i would love to go to. trinidad and tobago. the greek islands. italy. alaska. south pacific islands. maybe mexico/central america to see inca and mayan ruins.

Jita is nice this time of year.

That's really awesome, Ralph. I love it..

Fuerteventura is a beautiful island and I strongly recommend you visit (the videos are nice but don't really do it justice). We last visited in 2004 and stayed on the east coast in Caleta de Fuste. The town was friendly, the beach gorgeous (if for the occasional low flying aircraft - the airport is only a few miles away) and the weather perfect. I would definitely suggest a visit to the sand dunes just south of Corralejo just for the experience, it's like being in a desert but much closer to water!

Personally, I want to go to Fiji and I'm hoping to get there in the next 5 years once I've saved enough money for the travel costs from the UK
