Need more places to add to your bucket list? Here are 5 places that you need to travel to ASAP.
1. Iceland
You won't go to heaven if you don't go to Iceland. Kidding. From the beautiful waterfalls to active volcanoes, glaciers to hot springs, the Land of Fire and Ice is a study in extremes. Go to Reykjavik, the quirky capital city, where a host of reputable outfitters like Arctic Adventures offer excursions from scenic horseback rides to extreme ice climbing.
2. France
From Paris to Normandy, there is so much to see! I have been to both locations and my breath has been taken away from seeing both places. When in Paris you have to visit Eiffel Tower, Cathedral of Notre Dame, Louvre, Champs-Elysees, and Arc de Triomphe. Normandy is full of history, Normandy is best known for the D-Day beaches, the war cemeteries in Bayeux, Caen and Colleville-sur-Mer. Also, make sure to visit Abbaye du Mont-Saint-Michel—it's surrounded by water and high tides.
3. Morocco
Personally, Morocco is my favorite country. The pictures I have seen are absolutely breathtaking! The intoxicating experience of turbaned arts and craft sellers at every turn, careening donkey carts, and smiling snake charmers is unforgettable.
4. Israel
Jerusalem has a thriving art and culture scene, most notably the Israel Museum, a twenty-acre complex of exhibits and collections featuring Judaica, Israeli, and European art, plus archaeological findings. The Dead Sea Scrolls, discovered in the mid-twentieth century in caves near the Dead Sea, are housed here. Whether you are religious or not, this beautiful country is a must-see!
5. Antartica
Yes, Antartica. The absence of people means a pristine wilderness like none other, with colossal icebergs, giant whales, and tens of thousands of penguins.
