An answer to my friend Jean when I asked about her favorite places in México: "So... a thumbs up to Mérida and a thumbs down to Guadalajara. Extra points for mentioning the Mayan train. I don't do groups nor tours but as I age I may have to consider that. I try to stay as close to the historical center as possible as I prefer to walk. In Taiwan I prefer Tainan and Chaiyi. In Thailand I fell in love with the smaller cities of SiSaket and Roi Et (Udon Thani was home). In Costa Rica, I really liked Turrialba and Orosi (Pérez Zeledón was home). In Norway, Solvorn and Lillehammer. In Portugal, Lagos and Évora. Lagos is the only beach town on my list; although, I also like Montezuma, CR. Two I would avoid: Prague (too touristy), Cape Town (lovely but a sense of hostility; I didn't feel safe)." Other places to revisit: Tromsø & Trondheim & Ålesund, NO; Göteborg & Ystad, SE; Tallinn, EE; Vilnius, LT; Delft, NL; Paris; Turin, IT; Porto & Lisboa & Tomar & Tavira, PT; Phimai & Nong Khai, TH; Georgetown & Taiping, MY; Luang Prabang, Laos; Gdansk, PL; Lincoln, UK; Cashel & Cork, EI, Beograd, SRB; Sofia, BG; Kotor, MN; Brisbane, AUS; Puebla, MX; Ciudad Quesada & Quepos & La Cruz, CR; Granada, NI; Nara & Yamagata, JP. Why bother? Førde in Norway (nothing there); Luxembourg Ville (beautiful but cold people); Sydney (not my cuppa) & Melbourne (meh), AUS. 6686 |
