Yeah, I'm actually quite aware of the hotel, I think there's one in Scandinavia too (Sweden?) but I'm just curious about how you find it afterwards.
There's some dj called Victor Calderone at stereo Feb 13th. Stereo, where you can bring in anything now 'cause they don't check your pockets anymore? :p;) |

not for the world cup either.
it is a toss up.
Argentina, because I hear nothing but good things about Buenos Aires, and the culture, food, beauty of it intrigues us.
South Africa because one of my gf dreams is to be able to be up close and touch a cheetah. The safari stuff looks really cool, although it costs a fortune. One of my dreams is to swim with great white sharks (in the cage:p). Shark week on discovery is awesome, and i always wanted to feel the rush of seeing those jaws open and come after you. They are beautiful animals.
You can swim with great whites in mexico, but yeah, we both don't do mexico because there are too many mexicans there:p |

Went to go see temples in Cambodia. I am quite amazed with Cambodia, its such a nice country but really bad history. I really liked the food :) yummy crocodile.
As for Thailand pretty much went to relax and bake in the sun for 2 weeks in the South East. Plus spent a few days in Bangkok shopping and visiting. I'd for want to go back to Bangkok and see a few things I missed, like the floating market and some muay thai (which is like 90 mins outside the city) |

Quebec couple got shot in Mexico, just read that today.
Those trips are once in a lifetime experiences, especially if you can see the animals or swim with sharks. |
