10 of my most "dream" places to visit

When i was young, my grandmother (may she rest in peace), used to tell my parents that i was born to travel and this child would go places, probably because there is a mole in my heel. supertstitious belief it is, but i do hope its true. I have always dreamed of travelling, i mean not just go places but really explore the place, learn something and have fun. It is expensive, but i've always believed money cant buy happiness, if that cliche is indeed true, then with just a low budget, you can go to a place and have a fabulous experience. Sometimes, there would be certain places or specific restaurants in a country or anywhere, that i would love to go to..there's this old pizza restaurant in brazil which was featureed in the tv, but unfortunately i couldnt remember the name. maybe because of the countless times that i would sit and watch the discovery channel, that i also "travel" with it. its a nice feeling to dream to be in those places, i think its a very simple way of satisfying the mind.



here are my ten most dreamiest places!!

Although i've been living here in the philippines almost all of my life. Vigan, Ilocos Sur still seems to be an eluding place for me. I love old towns. I want to feel the nostalgia since i have this weird belief that i might be an old soul, kinda spooky. It would be a very nostalgic experience to see the remaining orginal ancestral houses, the streets during the spanish regime, and i guess have the simple chance to feel a piece of the past.







2. Lentil Restaurant

I love food. Love to dine anywhere which serves spectacular dishes.I've heard there's a special restaurant in Australia, where they cook really great food.. mediterrenaean and asian cuisine. The intriguing catch is that there are no prices listed in the menu. The customer decides on how much the food deserves to be paid. I find it a little bit weird, but probably more intriguing, i mean if this restaurant relies so much on their cooking, then they must serve really great food i guess.









3. VortexesPhotobucket - Video and Image Hosting


There's a special place in Sedona, Arizona.. a mountain with an amazing rock formation. Vortexes, a science phenomenon i guess. I've learned that this place produces a very special energy amongst its visitors. an unexplained energy, but a good one. some of the locals say, that it does seem to be quite big mystery by nature. I'd love to visit this place and feel, if there is indeed some kind of energy from this place. =)





4. Rennes Le chateauPhotobucket - Video and Image Hosting




the place where all the intrigue and mystery came from in the Da Vinci Code. There was a priest here named Sauniere, whom they believed discovered a "treasure", which the researchers believe would turn the religious belief of mankind, upside down, apart from that it does have a series of religious castles near the place, related to its past. I want to see the place, because it has an interesting issue and i want to know what is so special about this place. I do know that it even has a very "special" geometrical measurement, a pentagonal pattern.







5. Louvre Museum

I think the only explanation i can think of why i would want to go there is that.. I love art and this would be one hell of a paradise for me.










6. Rome

well if would get lost in any place in the world, would love to be here. I have read books and Rome is always in either of them. But there are intriguing churches that i would want to visit. A one day tour would not be enough. I think i would always gasp and be mesmerized everytime i see a statue. it would be a breathtaking moment every time for me, im sure.

okay, a close friend sent some pics of some vintage italian towns, its so lovely. can't get enough of it, because i'm a "walking" person. I love walks. not just walks, but around nice places. especially old and small, i dont know but i think i do enjoy it, theres a special feeling to it. and here's one pic of church nowhere, which i still dont know the name of the place. I find the place so special. especially this picture.
