The List
28/09/2010 § Leave a Comment
Like you, I have a list in my head of all the places I MUST visit, and possibly live, before I die.
Here is my unchecked list.
#1: Egypt. More specifically, the Pyramids. Yes, yes, I know, there’s a pizza hut down the road from one of the most amazing structures on earth, but I DON’T CARE, so stop telling me this, it just doesn’t kill my travel intentions. Ya bunch of debbie downers.
#2: Australia.
#3: Iceland. Side Note: I flew over Greenland on my way back from Paris last year and it was so very massively AWESOME AND BEAUTIFUL, just outside the plane window. And all it was, was a giant block of ice, from what I could see.
#4: Ireland.
#5: Moscow, Russia.
#6: Antarctica. Guys, seriously, you can RUN A MARATHON in Antarctica. Tell me that’s not the best thing you’ve ever heard.
#7: Prague. Side Note: I took a train through Prague once, but they wouldn’t let me off because my Eurail pass wouldn’t take me there. Oops, read it wrong! I didn’t have enough money to buy a ticket to Prague (27 euros), but the ticket man was more than happy to let me bribe him with my last 20 euros so he wouldn’t kick me off the train in middle-of-nowhere Czech Republic. Thanks, questionable morals guy.
#8: Machu Picchu, Peru.
#9: Patagonia.
#10: Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
It’s not that these are the only places I want to visit, but really the top 10.
My checked-off list:
Vichy, Paris, Marseilles, Clermont-Ferrand, Nice, France
Berlin, Munich, Germany
Amsterdam, Maastricht, Netherlands
Florence, Rome, Italy
Luxembourg, Luxembourg
Vienna, Austria
London
A few places in Mexico.

You know how you can tell when someone is about to lie to you? They tell you they’re not about to lie to you. Example: their next sentence starts with, “Believe me,” “I’m telling the truth,” “Really, I’m not lying,” or some other form of trying to convince you that they’re telling the truth.
I’m not much for body language-I think people who rip into a person’s “body language” wish they were psychologists so they could diagnose themselves-so I don’t count on it to give away any falsities. But you can always count on a liar to tell you they’re lying by saying they’re not.
Here is a fun comic:
