Last year, we stayed in Brooklyn and rode bikes around New York City for a week. We had no car. It was awesome.
I want to do a similar thing in Chicago this year. What are your vacation ideas? Not so much “the dream vacation that I want to do someday but can’t”, what do you want that you might do soon?

Tokyo. I’ve been studying my Japanese lessons and I can’t wait to ride their trains!
I’m taking a somewhat unplanned trip to Pittsburgh this weekend.
We were supposed to be going to Detroit to see a relative’s new house, but the remodelers are there, so I had a day planned in Pittsburgh to break up the long drive back, but now it’s going to be the whole trip.
I’m stopping at the National Aviary and booked the private owl encounter so I can hold an owl! Greatly looking forward to that!
National Aviary sounds very cool. Adding Pittsburgh to the list.
Largest aviary in the country!
And I haven’t really spent time in Pittsburgh before, but I passed through it about 10 years ago, and after just seeing it in textbooks from the steel industry days I had very low expectations, but I thought it looked very nice! There were lots of big bridges due to the 3 rivers, so there were nice views everywhere. I’m excited to get a closer look at everything.
This year, I either want to go on a seaside holiday to Southern France (Nice, Marseille or Biarritz), or return to Germany. Went to Leipzig and Dresden last time I went and I want to visit my half-American friend again.
The two big travel goals I have are to visit every major region of the world at least once and then to do a big road trip across the continental US (and then visit Hawaii and Alaska by plane because non contiguous states are non contiguous)
If a full continental circuit rail network gets set up I want to ride that all the way around the country too.
I’d like to see Mexico City, eat at restaurants and go to museums. We just got direct flights so hopefully soon.
I’m going there for the first time next month!
This one is on my list, too!
I’m currently in Tokyo and will be going out to Kyoto and Osaka in a few days. Got to visit Mount Fuji and the giant gundam on odaiba.
I just got back from a trip to Costa Rica. It’s an amazing and beautiful country.
I’m going to visit a lake called Blåisvatnet in Norway this summer. I’ve been to many beautiful places in Norway but this one is still on the bucket list. Look it up, looks gorgeous!
Going to Utah this year. It has numerous national parks and other cool stuff in the desert.
Want to go back to Iceland - this time with my family and do a trip around the ring road.
One of my life ambitions is to visit every continent, so I’d like to also take a cruise to the Antarctic. Not sure I’ll ever be able to afford that though.
It’s hard to answer because, although there are places I’d appreciate the intentions behind someone inviting me to, none of them are anything I’d seek out on my own. I feel like I could extract an equal amount of memories regardless of location assuming I wasn’t emotionally numb like I am now, as “fun” is a spontaneous thing. People have fun if they feel like they can.
Finland seems nice. I’d like to see the northern tiaga before climate change kills it all.
Well, after next week, I think I might have spring break off before spring quarter at college, so I think I’ll vacation in my bedroom and might spend a little bit of the remaining winter quarter financial aid I have going to a mall not too far from where I live and buy a boba tea for myself after visiting my favorite store if it’s still there.
A cabin in the mountains somewhere for a week sounds nice
We love to travel and meet people and cultures but this year an unexpected large expense had us staying closer to home. Luckily we’re in CO and have decided to do a lot more camping and hotspringing this year. Lots of fun things to do in this state that don’t cost a lot.
