I travel very little and when I do I go to visit my parents, I would like to travel all over the world and get to know many places like the pyramids of Egypt and the Chinese Wall.

I've never flown in a plane. Because, I didn't have the opportunity. But, I would like to visit Poland. I love the culture and the past history of Poland.

I haven't ever traveled by plane at the time I'm writing this. Yet I keep the dream of going to Japan for its blowing-up, exotic culture, and live in Canada o Alaska.
