Nature and traveling!

Hi guys! I've never seen a topic like this so i thought why not make one. This topic will be about the nature and places you want to visit in this world while you're alive. I think everyone wants to visit or go somewhere, so i will start to show an example.

I love nature really, i feel like i'm the fullest self when i'm there, like i'm the part of it, some people like to go for chill and relax travelling while others are more active. I prefer to be more active on my travels, i fell inlove with the mountains 2years ago and scince then i travel atleast 1 or 2 time's a year somewhere to expand myself, see the world in a bigger picture, i also love to discover something where noone has ever been, i have that huge curiosity, i like to take path's that no one has ever taken before, the thrill and the unknown thats what i also love about it, to be part of the nature, to challenge yourself and climb the mountain, to discover something while travelling in unknown direction, thats what kind of travelling i like. So far i have only been in Italy,Germany,Austria,Poland,Slovakia,England. Mainly the mountains because i'm not that interested to see a town, unless it would be like Rome- colosseum , but this is about nature travelling. 🙂 Just came back from 7days in Slovakia's mountains and it was really amazing, i'll share some pics that will include all of these places i visited, some mountains and other places i loved. . 🙂 Everyone here is welcome to share what they would like to travel or what you already travelled. My future plans would be climbint MT blanc, almost 15,776.7 ft, should have climbed this year, but they delayed that till next year, so yeah. I'd also like to visit Indonesia, Bali, all kinds of places that have jungles, mountains and historical statues or arena's like colosseum. Anyone else want to have a go? I would also like everyone to say their own sun/moon/merc/venus signs mine are sun/ cancer moon/sag merc/cancer venus/leo 🙂

Awesome pics! Id love to visit British Columbia, and also Bali. Im not as much into hardcore nature if there is risk involved. I like to feel some sense of control about my surroundings. Ive climbed Glen Coe in my home country Scotland that was an experience! haha! Alot of tears on the way up then close to euphoria when I got the top! Felt amazing 🙂

Looks like typical cancer excuse i hear everyone's talking about, you make money, it's your choise how you spend it, it's not that hard to save 500usd a year to travel somewhere, why do i hear these things from many people, if i had this, if i had that, damn they spend like 100usd a month for cigarettes and over 100 for beer and shit, but can't afford to travel for 500 once a yr? thats a shame, i always invest in myself, invesment in yourself is best investment, sports inventory, books, traveling, you can manage it if you trully want it, i guess thats my sag moon wanting to travel all around the globe meet cultures climb mountains and etc. i always find a way to travel. 😄 everyone can if they trully want something, same with goals and dreams in life, you'll find a way if you trully want it, if not, you find an excuse. 😄 stay positive and travel invest in yourself and you'll grow. Grow , expand, no lazy go crazy, find a way, travel on your feet.. i traveled by transit to germany once when i didn't have the money, some times on feet sometimes some people helped me get there. 😄

stay in hostels it's cheaper. if you get a room with a lot of other people,for example sharing with other people (bunkbeds) no television ect, it's a bare room with bunkbeds, it's 10 dollars /or whatever equal currency'a night. that's super cheap. Also, they have private rooms too if you have people wth you and don't want to share with strangers. Cheaper still, I believe is camping out at night pitching a tent, you just have to bring your supplies. the most expensive is airfaire, but people can stay in cheap rooms that are clean. it's dangerous out there, so its best to have a traveling partner(s) with you if you camp out.

My cousin has a time share in St. Martens which she and her kids enjoy very much and there's no one else there when they are. I'd like to explore various beaches around the world.

It's much harder for middle and working class Americans to travel than it is Europeans. My cousins in England get a month of paid holiday as soon as they start a job, while we're lucky to start with one week, since most places make you accrue for a year before taking any. You also have social and health programs available that we don't. Not to mention cheaper transport options. Your view is skewed.

that is true about the U.S., it seems to be set - up where only working americans can only travel on caravan into another state, from state to state. It's encouraged you remain in the the united states,so you spend all your money IN the U.S. perhaps.

edit,

Yosemite and the Red Wood forests, Grand Canyon , Niagra Falls are great places to go for nature. my sister and her family came from Yosemite, and camped out there this year.

omgosh....keepin it America - centric, cheaky. lol (keep the blinders on)

That said, so far this year, I've spent the day in Boston. Walked around downtown, Little Italy and got to go to their aquarium, which is always a favorite thing for me to do anywhere. I have a thing for jellyfish.



Then we flew from Boston to Terceira island, Portugal for a week.



Then, in July, we explored a great natural area with caves, in Iowa.



That's almost definitely it for this year, but already planning a British Isles trip for spring.

Edit to say: Cap, Scorp, Cap, Aqua in the order you requested.

oh wow!! we also went to Aquariums this year, a lot. We LOVE Aquariums!! the only Aquarium we didnt get to enjoy was to was the Monterey Park in California which we heard is awesome. we didn't have enough time to be there, as we had a long drive schedule.. Next time we're in Calfornia Monterey Aquarium. We also went to Portugal and Spain, and stayed along the border of Germany surrounded by nature. (rented a house cottage).

Nice! The Monterey aquarium is definitely on my bucket list. My favorite used to be the one in New Orleans, but I don't even know if it's there anymore. Heard everything died during Katrina. The one right off the coast of Biloxi, MS was completely blown away. Sheriffs were shooting poor sea lions that were stranded on the beach because they didn't know where to go. ? Chicago has a great one in the Shedd, if you ever get over this way. Also, was surprised by the one in Gatlinburg, TN. Was a glorious escape from all the tourist traps. And had ginormous jellies!

ps. Going by that second pic, I must also have a thing for stairs. 😄

thanks for telling about that on New Orleans. that is so sad. Omg on Sheriff's killing sea lions. Why couldn't they just ship the sea lions to another sea world type place or the beaches. 😢

Katrina really destroyed so much - people, their homes, everything. I was reading about how Brad Pitt/Jolie set up shelter homes after the Katrina incident. It's nice that a lot of people who have a lot of money do something good with it.

You can travel America, i get only 350eur a month, thats like 400-440usd for a month, do you consider that much?It's shit.. But i still manage to survive and save up for the trips, while in other countrys you get 1000or more monthly wages so yeah, you just have to know how to spend the money if you trully want to travel, you'll always find a way. America is a huge country, traveling her alone would be a lifetime experience, many places to visit. 🙂 There's places and nature to visit in each country! 🙂
