I'm a sucker for islands.

  • Terceira is super awesome, especially Angra, but only in summer
  • I also love the North Coast of the Dominican Republic, a bit away from the too touristy places... i.e. follow the coast to the east of Puerto Plata. Lots of gems there away from the resorts.
  • If mainland Europe, and cities: Bratislava > Vienna, Amsterdam > Berlin, Barcelona > Rome. But these are so insanely touristy nowadays that I'd rather just go to a quiet place in the middle of nowhere.

I loved the Seoraksan National Park near Sokcho. Great nature. At least a few decades ago it was very peaceful there.

Happy cows make yummy steaks make happy opti.

also, outside of the fields, especially both at the coastline, and closer to the big caldera and the Mt Brazil peaks, I've seen quite the ecological diversity. It's been an amazing place to grab a bike and just go wherever the wind blows. Oh and biking down the main volcano is scarier than up, which in turn is more of a battle tho, lol

We stayed east of Mt Brazil based on my photographs.

Ditto on the ecology.
