I need new hobbies.

#1

1. Which country do you want to go to the most that you have NEVER been to before?
If I went to Japan, I'd eat sushi by the dozen and literally shop till I die. The culture is so cute and fascinating.

2. Which is the oddest country (excluding the above as an option) you want to visit?
Iceland is cold, it's spawned many great musicians, the scenery is breathtaking, and people believe in leprechauns and elfs there. I can't think of a more interesting place.

3. Which country do you have NO interest in visiting?
Cuba. Who wants to go to Cuba?

4. Name the top 10 places or monument-types you want to see before you die?
The seven wonders of the world, the Louvre. I'm more interested in the people and customs than the architecture though.

5. Name the best country you've been to?
Hong Kong was perfect.

6. If you had to pick one country to live in, which would it be?
America.
I know it's awesome to live in other countries, but unless you've been there and done that you don't know how tiring/frustrating it can be. America's a good place to live, and there are plenty of diverse cities to choose from.

7. What is your idea of the ultimate vacation?
Backpacking through Europe, getting lost, learning the language, meeting people, and experiencing the country without a tour guide.

8. Do you want to speak any other languages? If so, which one(s)?
I want to perfect my Chinese and Spanish and pick up some like, Japanese and French.

9. Besides the state you live in, which is your favorite US state?
Like I'd say Texas...umm, New York is the best. It's so fun.

10. Give a brief description of the best trip you've ever been on?
I'm putting down two.

3 weeks in New York City without parentals, studying at Columbia University, going to trendy restaurants, shopping in Chinatown, and hanging out with people from Florida, California, Croatia, Turkey, Kuwait, etc.

4 days in Hong Kong with three other girls, shopping everyday and getting lost quite a bit.
