THE moment you all have been waiting for...
*DRUM ROLL HERE*
MY last place I shall go is to Fiji!
QUICK fact: Fiji water is my favorite water to drink... It is a bit expensive though...
HELLO gorgeous beaches, sunshine, and palm trees.
THE water is so blue and crystal-like.
THIS would be the perfect oppurtunity to scuba dive or swim in the ocean freely... and one of the best parts is that I do not have to worry about not being able to see what is in the water around me.. just in case a shark decides that it is hungry when it is around my leg.
FIJI is known for many of its small villages. I would go and tour many of them, including the Art's Village. There are many cultural experiences that I need to experience.
TO be honest, I really have never been on a boat besides a paddle boat at Lime Stone Lake, so I would have to take a boat through the Mangove Forests. It is known for its wildlife.
ANOTHER experience to see more animals!
IF you haven't noticed throughout my blog.. I absolutely love the wildlife and animals. I am not much of a spider person though, just throwing that out there!
THE only thing better than a nice massage is a trip to a hot spring and a mud bath. College is stressful and this would be the perfect relaxing point!
FIJI is also known for its tourists.
I can see why, this place is gorgeous and the perfect vacation sport for me!
THE water is so clear, I am already in love! This would be the perfect sport to go sailing, kayaking, water boarding, fishing, snorkeling...
HMMM.... I have always wanted to learn how to surf.
NATURE is beautiful, especially sunrises and sunsets. I would have to lie on the beach and watch the sunset and the sunrise.
BEFORE I would leave, I would have to go to at least one of the waterfalls. It would be so pretty!

WELL there is folks! There is my blog and all of the many places I would love to travel. I have high hopes that someday I will get this great oppurtunity. I hope you all enjoyed and learned a thing or two :)

ACCENTS! When someone says the word accents I think of Australian people over British people.
I adore Australian accents.
ACTUALLY there is an Australian guy on campus and I had asked him if he had ever seen giraffes there... little did I know that Australia does not have giraffes in the wild.
PRETTY much to sum up that conversation, I felt incredibly stupid.
MY biggest goal while I am in Australia is to see as many animals as I can.
THE list of animals I plan to see are listed below:
KOALA BEAR
KANGAROO
PLATAPUS
SALT WATER CROCODILE
WILD SNAKES
GIANT SEA TURTLE
PORKUPINE
DINGO
TAZMANIAN DEVIL
KOMODO DRAGON
ORANGUTAN
AND MANY MANY MORE!!!!

THE Great Barrier Reef! You shall see me there snorkeling.
SALT water animals are amazing.
NOT to mention the water in the Great Barrier Reef is gorgeous. I am going to bring an underwater camera and capture every moment I can.
I want to swim with the Sharks and see a Great White Shark.
CAREFULLY, I want to observe the Box Jellyfish, one of the most dangerous animals in Australia. If perhaps I do get stung, I must apply Vinegar on it and then see medical attention ASAP!
SOMEDAY, I hope to own my own Saltwater fish tank, so I want to see as many Nemos and Dorrys (Reference to the Pixar movie Finding Nemo) as I can!
HECK, I even want to see a Stingray, Starfish, and a Seahorse!
LOVE the water! I love the bright blue water and the fresh breeze and the smell of the water! It is so relaxing!
ALONG with seeing the animals, I want to observe the Coral Reef!
SNORKLING just sounds so much fun, I cannot wait to try it out!

AUSTRALIA seems like so much fun! I hope that when I come back, I take back one of those cute accents with me! :)

KONICHIWA!
HEY everyone. If anyone does not know what Konichiwa means, it means hello in Japan. My next visit is to Japan.
ONE of my main interests to go there is because a very good friend of mine who passed away in a car accident, the summer going into my Junior year was Japanese. He told me that he and I would go sometime. He would show me the inside scoop.
SO someday, I will live up to my word to him and go there!
BEFORE I go to Japan, I am going to have to buy myself a Kimono, that way I can fit in.
I absolutely love Asian food. I cannot wait to go try some of their food out. Rice is one of my favorite foods. And I hear they make some fantastic noodles.
ALSO, you all should know I am not very familiar with Japan except for Tokyo, so that is probably the only city I would tour until I knew more about it.
CHECK off list:
TOKYO Tower! To me the Tokyo tower, which is red and extremely tall, resembles the Eiffel Tower... so I would just have to see both.
NATIONAL Science Museum. I am not a huge fan of museums, but I do like Science Museums. I find them highly interesting, especially ones dealing with animals.
TO me, Tokyo seems like it is always lively and there is lots of light everywhere. So I would hope to take a helicopter ride at night and see the city from above.
MARTIAL Arts, I have always wanted to learn how to do Karate or some sort of Martial Arts. I would have to learn a few new tricks while I am there.
CHOPSTICKS! Chopsticks are almost the death of me.. I have no idea how to use them and everytime I try, I get frustrated. I always have to use the cheating chopsticks.
AKIHABARA reminds me of downtown New York City. I think of all of the clothing, electronic, and food stores. There is tons and tons of shops similiar in Tokyo. I just can't wait to spend my money there!
KOISHIKAWA KORAKUEN Gardens of Japan are very pretty and one of the oldest around. It has a beautiful scenery. The trees and plants and flowers are very pretty! I would love to sit down on a park bench and read a book there or take pictures around there!
ONE of the last things I would do there is go to some dance clubs and go where everything is lively. Tokyo overall seems like a very fun and lively place. I would definitely fit in there!

ITALY! Italiono, Regutti, Spaghetti...
MY biggest dream is to go to Italy. Since my family is Italian, I have always wanted to go Italy and visit my ancestors and my heritage.
I do not even know where to begin. This is my favorite place and the one I want to visit the first in my life. It is a MUST!
MY first big stop would be to Rome. From watching the movie, When In Rome and seeing tourguides and pictures of it, the place looks beautiful.
I would first have to go get some good Italian cooking food. I love to eat food. I would try all of the pastas, sauces (even though I do not like sauce), pizzas, and especially sweets from a bakery. I hear Italy makes really good sweets.
VATICAN City! Even though I first learned about Vatican City through the movie Eurotrip (great movie), I still want to see it. I would take a day and view the museums and book a tour. Everything would be more fun with a tourguide.
ALONG with modern day Rome, I would have to go see Ancient Rome and go visit the old structures that are still standing today.
SINCE I am hungry while typing this, I would go eat some more food in Rome.
BACK to traveling, I would also go visit many of the statues and museums. For example, I would go see the Trevi Fountain. I first saw this statue in a movie, and it looks so pretty.
I would also have to go travel to Sicily.
SICILY is where my father's side of the family originated from. My great-grandfather came to the United States from Italy. When he came here, the spelling of my last name changed from Rigutti to Regutti. I am the only Regutti family in the United States, so I am the only Kailin Rose Regutti in the world. Which is pretty awesome.
IN Sicily, I would see if I could trace back my family history and go and visit my ancestors I would do that.
SICILY is the largest island in the Mediterranean Sea! I would go swim in the Meditterranean Sea. I hear the water is very pretty and the color is a very deep blue.
I would go to the Rabbit and Favigana Beach. The water there looks very pretty too!
TEMPLE of Concord is calling my name.
I would even take my chances and go see the Stromboli Volcanoe.
FOOD! I would go try food in Sicily too!
CULTURE. I would have to do some shopping as well. I love to shop and I would love to see how their clothes differ from United State's clothes.
LASTLY, I would go see the Temple of Athena.

PYRAMIDS and hyrogliphics!
KING Tut, I will find your tomb! Just kidding.
I would next travel to Egypt.
I find Egypt incredibly exciting. The idea of the mummies, Cleopatra, Pyramids, and Egyptians all excite me. Egypt was one of my favorite things I learned about in history class.
LIBRARY of Alexandria is the biggest library in the world. I could spend days, heck even a week or two there. That would be my first place I would go and visit. I would have to take a look at everything, from ancient works til modern day writing. That would be one of the best experiences of my life, as nerdy as that sounds.
AT least one night, I would at lay out in the sand and stare at the stars. I bet the nights are beautiful in Egypt.
THE Cairo Tower use to be the biggest structure in Egypt until the Hillbrow tower was built. I would have to do some sight-seeing at the tower. The view from there, especially at night has to be amazing. Hopefully my fear of hights does not affect my visit.
EGYPT is known for its City Star Mall. By the picture at the bottom of my blog post, the mall looks freaking awesome! I think I may have to add some Egyptian clothes and culture to my closet and my style.
HOW cool would it be to go tour one of the last surviving members of the Seven Wonders of the World. I am going to travel and see the Pyramids of Giza and the Sphinx. Pyramids really fascinate me. I have always been curious to what actually lies in them, not to mention it would be awesome to see how these were actually made.
YOU cannot forget about traveling on the biggest river in the world, the Nile River. I would take a Felucca along the river and watch the sunset.
ALSO on the Nile River, I would go crocodile hunting. Actually I would want to go observe them, but not kill them. I hear they have giant crocodiles.
REVOLVING resteraunts? Cairo has a resteraunt in the top floor of the Grand Hyatt, it actually revolves! Freaking sweet! I would make that a top priority to go. It is a bit expensive, but the resteraunt is definitely worth it.
MY trip to Egypt would be worth the wild. I would be out touring and sightseeing every day and I would make sure that I would try new foods and see as much of the pyramids and temples as
possible!

BONJURE!
WELCOME to France!
BEFORE I would start adventuring, I will choose to stay in the Hotel Fouqet's Barriere. This hotel has a very pretty decor, a relaxing spa, and the view of the Eifell Tower.
MY first adventure in France would be to visit its glammering capital Paris.
AS cliche as this sounds, I would go and first see the Eiffel Tower. I would want to see it both in the day time and night time with all of the gleaming lights. I have seen it so many times in movies, that I cannot wait to see what it would like in person.
I have never been to Disneyland in the United States, but they do have one in Paris. I would take a day to go there. I think going to one in another country would be more exciting.
I am not for sure, but I may have to go visit a museum. Depending on the time I have there and if I felt up to it.
PARIS is the city of lights, dance, and sound. I would have to go to a few night clubs. I would choose to go to those that are not sketchy, and those that are recommended by tourists. I would have to go visit the La Rex Club and Black Calvados. These both look very lively and energetic. Just a fun place to be.
ONE of the many things I will try to do there is try as much food as possible. I am alwayss up for trying new things. I would go to the Stohrer bakery. I would actually go to as many bakeries as possible. Along with many of their resteraunts. I would not be trying any snails though.
THE Notre Dame Cathedral is gorgeous. The whole building, style, decor is very pretty and eye catching. It has been opened since 1345 and I would love to go and see it.
I would probably fill up the rest of my time with some shopping centers, night clubs, exploring the city of Paris, feeding the ducks, going to resteraunts, meeting new people, and taking random tours.
PARIS sounds like it will be worth the trip someday!

I am trading my California flip flops for a pair of hiking boots!
NEXT stop, the Amazon Tropical Rainforest, the largest forest in the world!!!
MY main reason for wanting to go to the rainforest is to see all of the diverse plant and animal species.
ANOTHER advantage would be to learn about the culture there.
IT is probably a good idea to bring an extra can of hairspray... so I can tame my hair when it reacts with the humidity.
IF I had the chance to see every animal at the rainforest I really would, but since I cannot do that, I will narrow my list down to the top ten animals I must check off on my must see list.
NUMBER one: An Anaconda. Ever since I was little I had this crazy fascination about anacondas. I had an imaginary pet one too. I know that sounds really strange, but I always wanted to a large one, like from the Scifi movies.
NUMBER two: Toucans are probably one of the prettiest birds along with parrotts and male pecocks. In art class back in high school, I did two art projects dealing with toucans. I really want to see one because its beak is long and colorful.
NUMBER three: Jaguars are not only very fast but they are very pretty mammal species.
NUMBER four: Orangutans are bright orange monkeys. I would want to see them swing from the trees and I would love to take a look at their vibrant fur.
NUMBER five: I have never seen an Aunt Eater. Even though I think eating aunts would be really gross, I still want to see a Aunt Eater up close in person.
NUMBER six: Amazon River Dolphin. I think Dolphin's are one of the prettiest water creatures and I have never seen one in person, not even at a zoo.
NUMBER seven: I would not go up and touch it, but I think it would be cool to see one of the poisonous dart frogs.
NUMBER eight: If I went by myself I would need to go find a Parrott so I could at least have something to talk to. Parrotts along with Toucans are very pretty bird species. I love the bright colors.
NUMBER nine: While I am it, I would even have to go to the Amazon River and take a look at the Piranhas. I have never seen one in person and I really want to see what one looks like, not to mention I would want to see how sharp its teeth actually are.
NUMBER ten: Ever since I watched the show Avatar The Last Airbender on Nikeloden, I have always wanted to see a lemur. I love lemurs so much that I named my golden retriver Momo, the lemur from Avatar.

THOSE are my top ten pics of animals I would be sure to see.

EVER since I was little, traveling the world has been one of my biggest dreams.
I have high hopes that I will get to visit the world one step at a time.
IT was not easy narrowing the list down of the places I want to go.
ACTUALLY, I want to travel just about everywhere, but for my readers I have narrowed the list down into eight places that I would love to go.
INSTEAD of going in the order in wish I want to travel first, I am going to work from the west coast of the world starting with California and working my to the other side of the world.
MY first stop in California would be the airport...
OKAY, no I would visit the San Diego Zoo. I absolutely love animals and I have heard so many great things about this zoo. Not to mention, it is the biggest in the United States. I love going to the zoo and I go every year in Ohio.
REDWOOD Forest! The word is not near as big as the trees. I have a huge fascination with big trees and I would make the trip to Sacremento to visit these. I could spend hours just hiking and looking through the forest.
HELLO sunshine! Along with trees, nature, and plants, I love the beach. I would want to go to the Venice Beach. I would lay out all day and tan. If I am feeling lucky, I would take a surfing lesson and hoping I would not get eaten by a shark or drown. I would also visit nearby aquariums, look at the beach houses, and watch the sunset. Oh and cannot forget that I would build a sand castle!
MY last stop in California would be to go to the biggest shopping center, Del Amo mall, in Torance California. Like most girl's I love to go shopping. I love buying new things and looking at new stores that Ohio does not offer.

THESE are the few of many things I would love to do while I would be in California. I am sure I could do a million things there, but these are the few that spark my interest the most.
