Two categories:
Places I haven't been: South Africa (is it blasphemous to say such a thing on the Europe forum?). I have been fascinated by the politics, history music and culture of this country for so long, and would love to go there -- on safari through Kruger National Park, go to Cape Town, etc. etc.
Places I have been: Israel. What a wonderful place to wonder about time and history and our place in it. Fabulous sites, great hiking, incredible stories.

I remember having seen (costly) travels to antarctica. The idea was that you went there on the boat who supplied the scientific stations. I suppose it still exists. In was on a french boat, but I suspect they weren't the only ones who had this idea...

Paris. It is nearly a cliche for Americans to be enamored of Paris but for me it is my favorite destination. I admire the concentration of great art and design as well as the people who appreciate those disciplines. I think it's great to find a city with activity on the streets; with people discussing books, politics, movies and all of the ephemera that is the woven fiber of our world. It may be an overly romanticized version of life in Paris, fueled by its contrast with my own rust-belt existence in the American midwest, but that has always been my experience while in French capital
