Hi /trv/ me and my friend are planning on a trip around the world.
So we basically search for places you have to see before you die?
Any ideas?
All the unesco sights

f the places I have been, I'd mark the Galapagos Islands, Iceland and Cambodia as the DO NOT DIE BEFORE GOING THERE spots.
The Galapagos for the scientific significance coupled with the scenery and wildlife, Iceland is the most beautiful place I have ever been, Cambodia, between the Khmer temples and conversations with people who survived the Khmer Rouge genocide just made for a really powerful travel experience.
Slightly next tier -- Rome/Venice/Istanbul if you know and are interested in the history of the places, Yellowstone in the winter and Japan/China in one go for the contrasts vs. similarities of culture.
Definitely Machu Picchu, it is absolutely breath taking and I loved every minute being there.

Was there with my family in early spring -- there was still too much snow on the ground and in the air to get around the whole country,, but we got about on the south coast and got a guy with a Super Jeep to take us up into the interior a bit. Where we live, it is pretty warm, so that was a very different experience for us.
But at that time of yeat, it was not crowded, at least.
I'd go back in the summer just to see the change of pace and weather.

We had first thought of going there when thinking of a place to see an aurora. Partly that's why we went then there were still longish nights.
It was cloudy every night we were there, and when we went to bed out last night -- got call from the front desk at abut 3 am -- "The clouds are gone and there is an aurora."
Was spectacular, even though there was a full moon so it was not as dark a sky as would have been ideal.
Still, pretty amazing thing to see. 10/10, would stand in bitter cold while underdressed again.

FYI heli rescues are *for free* in iceland. but i suggest you don't use it unless you're in really deep shit, cuz the public pays for it and they don't really want to. hitchhiking works really good in iceland as long as you stick to the ring road, on other roads you might have to wait a bit. everything is really expensive there expecially tourist things. just walk around and explore, theres enough to discover everywhere, stay safe.
