the ashnola valley, near the bc - washington state boundary...    something tells me the eurovan camper might not be the most appropriate vehicle though.

I'd like to take the 90 from Boston to Seattle and then venture up to BC for a while.

Europe- in it's entirety- over the course of a few years.

I'd also really like to hit up Cuba (before they invariably become americanized,) China and / or North Korea.  See what a more restrictive society is like.

I don't care how cliche it might be, but NYC for sure. I've been there once but that's definately not enough. I'd like to visit New Zealand/Australia if I could ever afford it.

No one dare say Miami. I overdosed on vicodin in Miami once, woke up and realized i did not miss shit. Fuck Miami, just a bunch of pork sandwich eating, fat fucking latins. What the fuck is wrong with that place?

For years I've been wanting to bring a dirtbike to the Baja peninsula and spend a week camping and riding with friends. The eventual goal is to race the Baja 1000. We're starting with the Baja250(race) in a year from now. I can't wait. We bought a KTM525 last week and that's going to be our race machine.




That White Grounds plaza looks fun as hell....

I want to go to India or Bhutan, but I'm trying to go to S. Korea right now for a year.  With a college degree it's really easy to go there and teach English for a year.  Oh yeah, Copenhagen > Amsterdam. 

Have you ever heard of this place in the middle of Copenhagen?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freetown_Christiania

I spent like a week there, it's awesome.  When I went there Alis had just finished a nice mini-ramp, but this was in 1998.  I met Arto Saari there before he blew up.  He ended up getting sponsored by Platinum or something at that Copenhagen contest that year.  I watched Nicky Gurerrero skate vert there too.  Epic.

I liked cuba alot. its strange but they use (or used since i havent been there for 5 years) the american dollar. the only other american things were coca cola and the old cars they got before being sanctioned. north korea on the other hand seems way to fucked. watch the VBS tour of it. its a crazyland, todd falcon would even fit in there.

to continue my streak of only going to spanish speaking countries, i would like to go to buenos aires and montevideo. they seem like rad places.

in the states i would like to go to NYC and in canada i want to go to montreal and quebec city.

It isnt like I called them spics or anything. Nevertheless, why the fuck would you want to go to Vietnam?

Sorry to hear that, went for a couple weeks a few years ago. Are the gook women still ecstatic for foreign white males?

yeah it's pretty funny asnd sad at the same time. you see sooo many white dudes married to locals here, and it's so obvious what their intentions are and it seems they're all oblivious. the whole "yeah, but this one is DIFFERENT!" kind of thing.
it's pretty rad to travel in if you know the good spots. which most people don't. i've been travelling all my life, though, so i know all the ins and outs of being a good backpacker
but it sucks shit to live here. i did last year and it was the worst year of my life.

Oh, one more... I'd like to visit Chicago and creep up into a proper blue collar joint that has greasy sausages and cheap ass beer. Whenever I go to a new-to-me city, I like finding the spots that locals go to after work, if only because it gives me a little insight into what it's really like in places I'm not familiar with. Clean mugs, a sticky floor, and lots of bullshitting with people is the best.

I'm the same way. I did it in NYC and it was awesome. Also Newport/Providence, RI

first of all, grim if you ever come this direction and want to hang out in coffeeshops, i'll make sure you'll get some good stuff
amsterdam is filled with coffeeshops ment for tourist who don't know their canabis. I can understand the comment of copenhagen being better than amsterdam, there isn't anything very special to see in amsterdam (apart from the coffeeshops and legal prostitutes i guess.).

i'm trying to add a few new things to the list.
Nepal seems very interesting. There is a train track which runs from Kathmandou through the himalaya to India, which seems amazing to experience.

Malaga seems amazing to go to for a week, all those spots you see look perfect, and knowing the spanish weather and culture i expect you'll have a great time with a few skatebuddies.

Loophole can you tell me some places of interest in Vietnam, as i would like to go there this summer, but as we don't have a proper plan (and therefore no idea how expensive the trip might get) the whole thing is still very unsure.
