Countries you have visited or want to visit.

[Moinul Moin]

As for where I'd want to go, I want to say Nepal.

It might be a wonderful journey to visit Everest(Me and my family can not visited it due to some problems)

Moinol, what a fun question to ask everyone!
I've visited India,

I think you have faced some strange experinces.

[Moinul Moin]

For me, it's Japan, Canada, Colombia, Uruguay, Brazil, Argentina, France, Hungary, Greece, Turkiye, Italy, and Switzerland.

Palestine (coming up in October hopefully)

How can it be possible?(I mean in this war)

[Danihel Txechescu]

I'd actually like to go back to a lot of those places[...] Maybe now that the kids are getting a little older, I'll be able to.

I went the opposite direction: Once my kids grew old enough (they started paying full fare) we didn't travel anymore all together. Even before then, just the logistics for getting us all from one side of the planet to the other were not very enticing. Last trip like that was to Hong Kong, and that was only with two kids.

If you want to make a difference, Moinul, there are times when you need to determine the amount of acceptable risk. My personal limit is probably higher than most when it comes to human rights especially.

When I was in Colombia for another delegation the village we were observing was bombed by the ELN. There are ideals that one must be willing to put oneself on the line for.

Other than my home country, I've been to, in rough order of first visit:

• Austria (all landers except Voralberg; 3x Vienna, among my favourite cities)
• Germany (2x Munich, 2x Berlin, 6x FFM/Mainz/Hesse)
• England (4x London, shamefully)
• France (I really need to visit again)
• Czechia
• Portugal
• Belgium
• Vatican City, fwiw
• Slovakia
• Ireland
• the Netherlands, visiting dear friend @Glüc last year

Gaping holes in the map and/or new places I want to visit next:

• Anywhere outside Europe (but I will travel to Istanbul in September for PhD related stuff)
• Spain (too hot. I don't like hot.)
• Switzerland (almost visited once, but the composer/conductor friend who invited me to play for their national holiday concert fell ill. Probably too expenso to visit in the near future, just like Scandinavia.)
• Slovenia/Croatia (if you live in NE Italy, pretty popular for beach holidays. Not with my parents, apparently)
• Hungary (but I am determined to pay homage to Magyar Peter by sneaking in a trip soon)

All of this contingent on my meagre PhD salary and saving up to fund my expensive skiing habit.

Moinol, what a fun question to ask everyone!
I've visited India,

India was one of my favorite places to visit!  I wrote my thesis there while living with @Béneditsch Ardpresteir for a few weeks, plus I traveled all around the country for months.  Delhi was great, but also we had a particular love for Varanasi and Sikkim.

I'd actually like to go back to a lot of those places[...] Maybe now that the kids are getting a little older, I'll be able to.

I went the opposite direction: Once my kids grew old enough (they started paying full fare) we didn't travel anymore all together.

Yeah, my wife and I haven't traveled anywhere significant -- outside of a few places in America and to Canada -- since we had our twins.  Partially it's the expense, but also it's because all the kids are still kind of too young to appreciate it.  We plan to remedy that in a couple of years and go down to Mexico... I'll be hitting you up for advice on where to go!

Gaping holes in the map and/or new places I want to visit next:

The States isn't in your list, probably for understandable reasons right now, but if you ever want to come visit (probably post-Trump) you'll have a free place to stay in Massachusetts!

That's a powerful perspective. Your experience in Colombia shows the kind of courage and commitment that human rights work sometimes demands. I have great respect for people willing to stand up for their principles despite the risks.

Sikkim was absolutely wonderful! (When I have visited)

I hope I will be able to take you up on that offer some day!
