This is very tough to choose as so many places are great and yet are nothing alike. For outdoor activities, I would select Goa India. The people are wonderful, it is a fun area and very inexpensive.
Seoul and Tokyo are very interesting. There is a mix of old and new in culture, food, architecture,etc. Rome, Paris and London would fill out this group. Of the various large cities though, it would be New York. NY is the only true world city with a mix of every culture, food and language.
For stupendous views: Main, Alaska or the Southwest US. (And of course Las Vegas at night has no competition.)
For me, if I could leave tomorrow…it would be a tie between New York and Goa.

The Philippines,
while it not as poor as many thought it was. but there is a mix of really poor sections and really First World Standard of living, your family can even volunteer to live in a demo farm where people from the western world are living as volunteers teach the locals how to improve their lives,.
i am recommending these experience because if the experience is too much you guys can retreat to familiar surroundings...i do not want yout noble intentions turn into a trap for you.
your kids can see people living in really poor situations, your kids would hopefully appreciate how better off and how much things are going for them.

How about Seychelles resorts? As I know it is amazing place. I read many reviews about their hotels and chose Savoy 5*, near the Beau Vallon beach. I also found good offers on the hotels website - savoy.sc/offers/. Who was in this place? Can you advise something? |

Kenya has some of the most friendliest people in the world, and you feel welcome from the minute that you land at the airport. You meet smiling people who are very easy to work with, and you hear Karibu Kenya around you. Once you get people are friendly, everything else tends to flow naturally.

Dubai is the largest and most populous city in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).On the southeast coast of the Persian Gulf, it is the capital of the Emirate of Dubai, one of the seven emirates that make up the country.
Dubai is a global city and business hub of the Middle East. It is also a major transport hub for passengers and cargo.Oil revenue helped accelerate the early development of the city, but its reserves are limited and production levels are low: today, less than 5% of the emirate's revenue comes from oil.Dubai's economy now relies on revenues from tourism, aviation, real estate, and financial services.

I believe Seychelles is one of the most exotic destinations ever..We have been there at the hotel Savoy, highly recommend this place! It has great location just by the beach. Massive pool. We tried the restaurants, bar and all were up to the mark. Room was clean and spacious. Spa is also great. If you interested, here are their Seychelles vacation packages savoy.sc/offers/ |

Where is the best place to travel during the holidays? I like sea countries. Diving of Egypt, islands of Greece, seafood of Bulgaria is such a beauty |

Places I plan to visit in Greece (in near future I hope) don't include any northern/central Greek destination. They include Samaria Gorge national park, city of Rhodes, Santorini, and Nafplio. |

Samaria : you can find the tallest True Greeks there. Very Slavic-like. Greeks there are also true Dorian-type.
Rhodes : The best and more advanced True Greeks I have met (together with Cyprus). They are of Ionian-type (just like the Cypriots). Santorini : Some true Greeks still live there. The locals. Not the vlah-arbanite ppl from Athens who have bought property there. Nafplio : has some beauty due to the Austrian design. Apart from that, the locals are plain-type average vlah-Arbanites from south greece. Nothing to write home about.

Example .
In Athens finally they set up some system to cancel the ticket electronically inside the bus. This happened this year or the previous. In Esthonia/Cyprus they had it for ages.
Now watch this : Rhodes : the local bus driver asks your destination and then clicks the destination in some touch screen hand device which is all in Greek lang and the ticket gets printed! FUNKING wow!! Same like in Poland. In Athens I guess this is virtual reality. The Athenians just could not get this going / working.

So its all better than here. Here we have private company that sells the plastic cards which you add driving credit to, and all is sold in corner shops. This money goes to the private company that doesn't give any share of the money to the local government who would invest in public transport infrastructure. |
