Singapore has always been on my list of places that I want to see before I shuffle off the mortal coil, and to be honest I dont really know why. Maybe it's once again the food (can you tell I love to eat and don't drink booze at all yet?) or its the likes of Marina Bay, and the huge casino complexes they have over there. It could even be the airport itself, Changi Airport, which is the "best airport in the world" and apparently on par with some shopping centres in other major cities. It just seems like a nice place to go for a few days.

Unfortunately, it's so far away for me and also not worth it to only go for a few days, but because of the intense heat and humidity, I haven't made it out there yet. I'm planning on a trip around Eastern Asia/Australia though and will hopefully get a few days in Singapore during that time!

I've travelled a few times to the West Coast of America (San Fran, LA, Vegas, Arizona) but never to Canada. Of the major Canadian cities, Toronto is always one of the two I look at (Vancouver being the other) mainly for the ease of getting there from Europe.

It's another one of those cities where I can see myself eating good food, visiting museums and art galleries, and just walking around the place taking it all in. Then, if fancied, a trip to the beach. Sounds perfect.

I'm looking forward to this one and hoping to hit it next year.

The canals. The boats. The museums. The history and the culture. All reasons why people say Venice should be visited once in your life, and I agree. I've wanted to visit Venice for years, for precisely the reasons above. It isn't all fairytales though. The food isn't great, to be honest. On hot days there can be a bit of a smell as Venice hasn't been upgraded for 600 years, and that sewage has to go somewhere...

Plus these days it is the ultimate tourist trap. But, it's Venice, I will be going (probably combine it with Rome for a week in Italy) and I will enjoy it, hence 6th place. The thought of it puts a smile on my face.

Now we've started getting to the cities I REALLY want to go to and Prague, surprisingly, is on that list.

But look at that picture, the place is beautiful. The architecture, the history, the culture. Prague is one of those cities I haven't yet visited that I really want to go to. Plus, the food is good, the nightlife is good, the entertainment options are really good (I play a lot of Escape Games and Prague has an abundance of them) and it's cheap. Can't go wrong there.

Now I want to go to Prague this weekend. Damn COVID!

When I saw EB take this pick I had no idea what I was in for. I'd never heard of it. Then I scrolled down and saw that they don't like the British, understandably, given the Falkland Islands war.

And I'm British. Great.

Then I scrolled a bit further. And saw penguins. Then my other half saw the penguins and said "WE HAVE TO GO THERE". Great. Someone has clearly forgotten that because they are Irish, then they'll be okay, but as soon as I open my gob, I'll get shot. (Obviously, I'm not going to get shot...I hope...no, wait, I'm not Jeremy Clarkson in disguise.)

It's going to be a pain in the arse to get to. It's going to be expensive. It's going to be bloody freezing and I do NOT do well in cold weather as I am the slimmest individual in the country and have approximately 0.35% body fat reserves. And it probably involves getting on a boat to see penguins. But you know what? I see Ushuaia on the list and I can visualise my other half's face when we do get on that boat and see the penguins.

And that will make it worth it. So cheers, eyebooger, for the suggestion. If I die because of it I am definitely inviting you to the funeral in order for everyone to blame you.

I really, really want to see the Northern Lights at least once in my life. Hence, Reykjavik. But it's not just the Northern Lights. The old town looks really nice and I really like the idea of whale watching! Must just remember to wrap up warm though...

This is the one I am the least confident of doing, sadly, just because it is ridiculously expensive from the UK. It's a pity, because who could turn down the Galapagos Islands? I certainly can't. The beaches, the food, the tortoises...it's heaven. And assuming I get to do it, I'm stupidly excited about doing it.

Might need to win the National Lottery beforehand, mind you...

This. This was the easy winner. I love Japanese culture. I love Japanese food, to the point I spend 12hrs cooking my own ramen broth with pig's feet. I'm even going to learn Japanese this year.

I want to see the Cherry Blossoms in April. I want to travel to Fukuoka for the ramen there, and then up to the northernmost point in Japan just for the views. If I could, I would live there.

And I am going to visit it. So cheers, filthy, for the push to get off my ass and start travelling. Tokyo is going to be the first long-haul destination on this list, and I'm booking it asap for March 2022.
