This is a picture of the super beautiful Naples, Italy. It is my origin of heritage. My grandfather immigrated from Naples in 1925. Therefore, it is one of the main places I want to go before I die.
I have been out of the country a handful of times. Once to Canada and several times to Nassau in The Bahamas several times. I lived in South Florida from the time that I was born until I was 21 years old. A certain cruise line offered great deals to Florida residents. $165 to go from Fort Lauderdale, Florida to the Bahamas for the weekend. It's only about 90 miles, and since the drinking age is only 18 in international waters, my friends and I went numerous times. Infect, in my senior year, we took our class trip on this boat. 220 drunk 18-year-olds. We pretty much over ran the entire cruise ship. We all had the times of our lives.
Now though, I am really starting to get the urge to do more traveling. I want to see the world. I don't aspire to be filthy rich with lots of cars, $600 high heels, and mansions. But if I came across a lot of money, I'd get a passport and head out. And Naples would be my first choice. I had a hard time choosing a picture. They were all so beautiful, but this one really stuck out to me.
On top of Naples, I would love to visit the rest of Italy. I'm curious to know about the place that my family originated from. I carry an Italian last name. It only seems proper to go to the place that my name is from.
Besides Italy, there are many other places I want to see:
-Paris, France. I've always dreamt of falling in love in Paris. However, since I'm already in love, I now dream of going there with my boyfriend. Matt is the love of my life. Nothing seems it could be more romantic and fulfilling to fall in love all over again in Paris. Call me cliche. Call me a hopeless romantic. It's all okay. It seems like a real dream.
-Amsterdam, The Netherlands. I've heard some great stories about Amsterdam. It's a stoner's paradise. A friend of mine who has been there said that there are "registered pot sellers." He was approached by several people as soon as he got off the plane. He also mentioned there being marijuana on the menus in several restaurants (or coffee shops, whatever). Imagine this: "yes, I will take a tall latte and a side of two joints." LOL. I'm not a smoker. I was in my younger days, but I eventually grew up. However, this just sounds awesome.
-Hawaii. Yes, it's obviously part of America. But it's so far from us Floridians, that the travel distance is equal to visiting another country. The scenery is so beautiful. I used to be a total beach bum when I lived near the water. I could most definitely see myself laying in a hammock in Hawaii with a frozen margarita in hand. Nothing could top that.
-China. It may be overpopulated. They make take all of our manufacturing from America. But I hear that the architecture over there is amazing.
-Columbia, The Virgin Islands, Jamaica. Really anywhere that is near beautiful water.
I could probably go on forever. I'll never have the money to do all of this, unless I win the lottery. But a girl can always dream, can't she?
