elusivek1) What famous landmarks have you visited?
We try to visit a couple of famous landmarks whenever we travel, but I don't particularly like them as they're always full of people, haha. I could say I visit the Ruins of St Paul pretty regularly (it's home).
There's really quite a few I've visited but I don't feel like listing them out (ha!) yanno, the usual... Eiffel Tower, Tower of Pisa, British Museum... though I have a photo and a funny story for the Belvedere...
It's supposed to be late Spring. It was hot like mid Summer. The extra lining in my boots melted into my socks.
2) How has travel affected you?
I would like to believe that travel has broadened my knowledge and understanding of people and culture. It has also helped my character a bit. I sound like an outgoing person, but I'm really an introvert, but when traveling, I have to overcome that as there are times I will need to seek help (like, after I've tried to search for help on my phone for like 304 times and failed)
3) What are the best souvenirs you’ve ever collected while traveling?
As a matter of fact, many of the souvenirs I've collected are gone... I mean small useless things like mini statues or key chains that either lie around... and if I use the key chains they've most likely broken off. A couple that I still have around and that are still being used include a wooden clock designed based as the Prague Clock Tower face from, yeah, Prague, and a pair of Sisi earrings from Vienna.
4) What is your fantasy vacation?
As a matter of fact my last trip to Taipei was exactly that, what I had always envisioned to be the perfect vacation - there was a train ride where I read a good bit, there was nature as we went hiking, there was city excitement as it was, well, Taipei, lots of good food, interesting shopping, and many artsy shops.
5) Would you want to be a space tourist?
I haven't even finished travel the Earth yet, why would I want to get to space? So, no.
