Our Dream Trip

@ENKELI omg a cruise around the Nile would be amazing!! i remember as a kid i really loved learning about ancient Egypt so my inner child would love it. also, my friend got proposed to in front of the pyramids!!

oh yeah that makes sense! i think that's how i feel about asian countries too, i've heard sooo much and seen so many pics that i feel like i've already been there lol.

tassie's on my interstate travel list too! and i'd love to visit WA and Cairns too! i've been to GC when i was younger, but i'll be revisiting this year. was LA nice? did you visit other countries in the US?

@AlwaysMyself you know, I was actually thinking Bali could be good for this! What area would you recommend that's not too touristy?

PS: @ENKELI you can come too. hehe

@Former-Member it sounds like there is a real heart-led desire to connect with your family and roots, that's beautiful.

@avant-garde reading your words made me tear up, there's such a sense of hope and wonder in them - I can relate to this a lot.

@Snowie the architecture in Europe is incredible, I really hope you can make it there at some point.

@Appleblossom it sounds like you gained so much for your travels, what a magical experience. What music festivals do you enjoy going to now?

Thank you all for sharing. 🥰

@AuntGlow I've had friends go to Europe and have loved their photos. I am determined to make it there.

I have already done, Bali, Thailand, Japan, NZ and USA and everywhere in Aus except NT.

@Snowie welcome aboard, we're glad to have you travelling with us!

Where in the US did you go and where were your favourite spots?

For me I loved San Diego and Philadelphia most 😊

Wow! Everyone has such lovely ideas for dream holiday, and great experiences of past trips. 🥰

@AuntGlow re: Bali for a quiet retreat. I looked up the place someone I know went: Blue Karma Ubud (https://bluekarmasecrets.dijiwasanctuaries.com/at/bluekarmaubud).

Budget is a popular cultural and retreat area in Bali, but due to being popular may not be the cheapest. But it is easy to get to.

I am going to Menjangan for a few night before home on my trip - it is north-west Bali and much cheaper but out of the way. The accommodation is better value, but the transport to/from costs more due to time/distance. I will see what it is like!

I'd like to go visit North Qld too (but in winter). @Shaz51 can be my guide there 😋.

@Appleblossom I completely agree about the value of learning during travels. Seeing various countries has been great for getting perspective sometimes too.

Hi @ENKELI

I loved San Diego too.

I also loved Las Vegas at night. All the lights were amazing.

@AlwaysMyself Do they have sauna at any of these places in Bali?

I’ve never been. I get very stressed if I don’t have sauna.

@Snowie @ENKELI I'd love to visit LA, Vegas and New York to see what its like because of what we see/hear in movies/tv. I hear it really is 24/7 activity, and that just amazes me. I would likely dislike living there, but I'd love to visit and see it.

@Glisten @ Sauna in Bali... good question. It is a hot and humid climate, especially during the monsoon season. So perhaps the outdoors could almost be a sauna??

There are definitely some resorts in Bali that will have a sauna. So we will just have to find one with both Yoga and Sauna! Maybe a bikram yoga?? (That's the hot heat yoga right?? I would not survive haha)

@AlwaysMyself Can I ride horses in Bali?

@Glisten you most certainly can!
