All of these look so great! My husband and I really want to do the Galapagos Islands.
Nice video, thanks👍
Thanks for the video, always great info.
Just curious, what about the Big Island for you puts it above the other Hawaiian islands?
I've been to a few places on your list and want to add new ones. Loved Costa Rica, I stayed in La Fortuna and Guanacaste. The Big Island is my favorite Hawaiian island too. Lots to do but not as congested as Honolulu. The Dutch Caribbean or ABC islands are my favorite in the Caribbean. I saw you included a shot of Bonaire too. Riviera Maya is fun and a short flight.
This was super helpful.
Nice to see you give Seychelles and Mauritius some love. Had Port of calls there along with Madagascar back in 2001. Beautiful.
Ignore this comment as this is a personal msg for someone
Other people say im a serious type because I talk about ideas and I like informative and intellectual topics sometimes.
But actually, im not really very serious about life. I laugh at serious things. I think other people are more serious in life than me.
Very good explanation.
Which one has the best missile defense systems…could be important…🎉🎉🎉
I’m staying home and guarding the house. 🧨🌟🧨💥🧨✌🏽✌🏽🧨
I’m a little surprised the Turkish Riviera isn’t on the list. Is it a different kind of location, not with the topic of the video?
