Well that’s my 50, I can’t say it’s my top 50 because I’ve got a list which has many more than 50 places so honestly, I just picked these at random. There’s far too many in which I wish to visit, far too many for me to go picking tops as well!

Maybe at a later date you’ll find another post of mine with a definitive list that are all my must visit places and I’ll take out all the ones that I’ve maybe randomly put in.. But honestly, I want to see every part of this world so you might just continuously see posts of the places I wish to go until I’ve named every possible place on earth.

Where are all your ‘I must go here’ places to visit? How about commenting and giving me your top 5? Whether you’ve been and it’s somewhere you loved or whether it’s just somewhere on your ‘one day I’ll visit here’ list. I’d love to hear where we all want to go and see if anyone has any in common!

Planning..

I’ve just ordered a few lonely planet books and I can’t wait to get and read them. I have a whole year to save and learn before going on my RTW trip and if I’m honest, these days I love nothing more than to read tips about backpacking it around the world or other peoples RTW adventures. I’m trying to cram as much information into my brain as possible, I want to learn as much as I can before I go. If anyone has any tips or advice of their own about travelling round the world by myself please feel free to give me any advice!

I told my dad today that I want to do a RTW trip by myself and he thinks I’m mad and said he won’t let me. Funny because he has no control over what I do, never has. I don’t understand why someone wouldn’t think it was a good idea, travelling is always a good idea. My only issue is, where to travel? I want to go everywhere and see everything.. So how can I pick a certain few places to go to at a time, I couldn’t afford to travel the whole word at once, well who could? Personally I’m thinking Asia, Australia, maybe Fiji and a little of a America for my first trip, if I can afford it that is. Saying that, I have over a year to save and I think I could easily do it. If not, I’ll miss something out and do it next time! 

I’m not a very great planner, and I guess with travelling it’s not all about planning, there’s the chance to be spontaneous and just have an adventure.. But, in my mind, as I’m going to be travelling myself I feel like I have to plan pretty much everything because I know people say ‘you never really travel yourself because you meet other people and travellers’ but truth is, I’m not good at getting to know new people, making new friends etc. I’ll give myself the next year to try gain a little more confidence so I can meet new people but if I’m completely honest I don’t see that happening unfortunately.
