I want to escape to the Maldives, because I love diving and I hate English winters.
I think you know where I will be traveling to! Still many more places in Turkey to explore and check Skyscanner and they do internal flights across the country.
We’re going to escape to Western Europe and then some starting next year on our second gap trip. Since we’re going to be gone to 1+ year.. it’ll help! We’re both 26 but will be 27 when we leave.
We would love to go anywhere!! We are wanna-be world travelers who are still getting out of debt (14 more months!) and then we will begin saving. Would love to take a trip with our kids to Costa Rica for a Spanish immersion course… we want to begin to world-school our children. Thanks for offering such a wonderful prize! 🙂
I would probably use this prize for our honeymoon next year. I’d really love to take Mike to Iceland- it’s the most beautiful place i’ve ever been and it absolutely MUST be seen via roadtrip.
Sigh.
I just hate doing this. But desperate men do desperate deeds.
Sigh.
Oh, somewhere warm and sunny. Not picky at all. Myanmar will do.
Well we are traveling from Malaysia to Spain but after reading about your time in Egypt (brown nose points for saying I read your entries right?? :), we decided we really want to spend at least a week, maybe more there on our way.
I love archaeology an want to show the boys Egyptian history at the same time. If I say Minecraft will that sway the vote from Zach?? Minecraft, Minecraft!!!
I’d love to escape to South America, especially Patagonia! It’s one of the only uncharted territories left on my travel bucket list!
Ohh, so many places to go… I would have to choose Brasilia, Brazil. I’ve never been anywhere in South America, so I think it’s time.
Hmm, totally forgot to leave my age. Awkward. I’m 28.
I would love to escape to Istanbul, Rome, Pompeii and Athens because I study Ancient History & Late Antiquity but I am still yet to explore these beautiful ancient places.
No question, escape to Bhutan ANYDAY. It’s only money that is keeping me away.
Oh money, can’t we just be friends? You can come hang out with me in my wallet or bank account, then I’ll give you to nice people so I can go to Bhutan. Let’s do it together, money! TEAM!
Ski season will be starting soon. How about Steamboat Springs, Colorado? I’ve been to many resorts but not this one.
We’re going to escape to paris, France.The most romantic city and the most beautiful language will make us so relax and forget about our life pressure.
I would escape to Ghana because it looks wonderful and would freak the fuck out of my Mum.
I’m, like, 24.
We would love to escape to South America with my 3 girls!
Antartica! I want to step on all 7 continent. 🙂
I would like to escape to South-Eastern Europe on a road trip with my husband (I can’t really take the cat so I guess he’ll have to do…) 😉
Whoops forgot my age – 29! Teach me to read the small print before commenting…
I have a friend who hasn’t been traveled anywhere (outside of a 2 hour driving radius from her home) since 2007, which I think is crazy (and not the good kind of crazy). I’d use the prize to go toward taking her on a vacation. We could fly to Seattle, a city she loves and hasn’t been to since 2006, and do a west coast road trip right to the southern tip of California, and maybe even into Mexico (she’s never been outside of Canada or the US). We’d check out some cities like Seattle, Portland, Sacramento, San Francisco, Los Angeles, and San Diego. And in Oregon we’d take a detour to visit Astoria, which is where The Goonies was filmed (we both love that movie). We’d visit some great parks like Olympic National Park, Yosemite National Park, Muir Woods National Monument, and Crater Lake National Park. Moreso I’m sure we’d find a lot of really /unique/weird/wonderful treasures we never knew about. I’ve always thought a US west coast road trip would be amazing, and to help my friend get back into the travel groove would be great.
Oops I forgot to put my age as well. I’m 28.
I am a 33 year old single mother of 3 wild and wonderful kids who are all excited to get out in the world and become world travelers and let the world become there class room 🙂 we have decided we will start with somewhere warm…
ROME! I’ve seen the Vegas replicas but would love to see the real thing in person! Almost 42 and dream of travelling the world.
I’d head for Hanoi because I’m tired and ashamed of writing linkbuilding articles for my SEO agency’s travel company clients without ever having visited the countries I’m writing about.
The Nordic countries to study wolves (as research for a book I’m writing); to see the Northern Lights; to meet, for the first time, the toddler daughter of very dear friends in Oslo; to see Stockholm; to take a sabbatical from my job, which I will have been doing for 10 years this coming January; to visit a countries that do not usually seem to me as the affordable option; to… hang on is there a word limit to this?
My 11 year old son looks up at the frozen sky. His gloomy eyes Watchig the snow fall, i know what’s about to escape his angel lips. “oh my god mom!! I was meant to live somewhere warm!! Not this frozen wasteland.. 9 months of freezing cold, snow pants, frozen car, 28 winter layers, square tires… please this year can we just be somewhere warm for a little while?”
He reminds me that Australia would be wonderful.
I know it’s a cool 6 grand to be there and back, our australia savings fund has a smidgett of this amount in it.
we negotiate between Oz and Jamaica, Mexico, we daydream of maldives, Thailand, Bali, brazil, Peru..
we read through your blog one more time, and he wonders like most of us do sometimes what it would be like to live differently. Scrawling through escape artists adventures it’s hard to not be tempted in yearning for a new place and new adventures.
I wish for him to see the world. to wake up with new ideas and emotions and understanding of this big beautiful world, I suppose I wish the same for myself:)
I’ve had the opportunity to miss our home, I want this for my young son. to learn an appreciation for the life that’s been provided, mixed with a tiny little bite from a travel bug:)
best of travels to you both, please know you’ve got a couple of fans in Canada’s north!
33 years old:)
No there isn’t an obvious word limit, so picking up from where the typos kicked in: to visit a number of countries that do not usually seem to me to be affordable options; to explain to Fred what a fjord is; to visit islands where Roald Dahl holidayed as a child; to drink vodka in Helsinki; to travel beyond the main cities; to get lost in forests… Um this isn’t open to friends is it. I’ll stop now then. Just thought you’d like to know!! x
Actually, it’s TOTALLY open to friends — and for that matter family (although it would look a bit crap if a family member actually won)… Rafflecopter does some sort of magic with it, so apart from the 15 points for the most creative entry when everything closes, I really can’t fiddle anything at all.
The only people it’s not open to are employees of my lovely sponsors. So… wibble away!
I’m really enjoying reading these — so many different places that people dream of…
Talking of typos I think you meant to say: The only thing you HAVE to do to enter is leave me a comment saying where you’d like to escape to and WHY, then click “enter” on the widget below.
Not: The only thing you HAVE to do to enter is leave me a comment saying where you’d like to escape to and WHERE, then click “enter” on the widget below.
Thanks. Fixing now. <>
Thanks for the great contest. Our dream escape would be an African safari. We’d love to see the big animals on their migration. Someday… someday…
I would love to escape to Africa! Can’t believe I haven’t set foot on the African continent yet, but there are a million things I want to do there: take a tour of the Sahara desert, cruise down the Nile, see the pyramids in Egypt, go on a safari in Kenya, swim with Great white sharks in South Africa, see the Victoria Falls, climb Kilimanjaro, enjoy the beaches of Zanzibar, go sandboarding in Namibia and a million other things 🙂
Oh, my…most def the Caymans. We live in Minnesota, where your skiing picture is very apt. It’s cold here more than half the year. The Caymans (or something of their ilk) would be JUST the ticket come Jan or Feb!
Oh yes, and um…WAY over 28, but not yet quite to the “big 5-oh” mentioned!
I’d love to go to Iceland. It just looks like such a fascinating place. Plus, I turn 30 soon and want to start this decade of my life with a huge bang.
Wow. So many choices! I think with extra travel bucks we would definitey visit Myanmar. I think it would be great to visit a very undeveloped nation and then come back many years later to see the progress!
Last time I checked, I was 40!! Ohmigod delete this comment!! l
Oh goodness, where wouldn’t I like to go?! There are plenty of places Aidan and I haven’t been to. Looking at Skyscanner, I’d happily escape to Cuba or Peru. I’m the child of Cuban exiles, and I’ve always wanted to see where my family came from. My best friend is Peruvian, so would love to go there, too. (Plus, I hear the food scene is glorious, and there’s plenty of outdoor activities to be had.)
Would it be weird to say that I’d let Zac pick? Being that you started this blog when he was 9 and my own spawn is 9 at the moment, I think it’d be quite fun.
I’m 28, btw.
I want, actually make that need, to escape going home … wherever that is. I’ve been on the road 8 months with plans for 6 more and budget for way less than that. The more I see of this amazing world the more I want to see, the more I need to see. I’ve no idea how I am going to settle again. But if I do, there’ll always be a couple of beds in … well somewhere in Oz for you guys.
Huge congrats on 1000 days. I’ll raise a drink to 1000 more
I would love to escape to Buenos Aires. Last I went, the kids were so young that they don’t remember much. Now they’re old enough to truly appreciate learning about my family’s cultural heritage.
I’m 22 but I’d like to escape because I feel that the longer I stay here – finishing my degree, working two jobs – that I’m getting pulled into the 9-5, the mundane, exactly where I don’t want to be!!! (yet :P)
Oops didn’t leave my age but trust me when I say I’ve over 25. Like way over
I’d go to Bangkok again because they have cheap beer (not like Oman which has virtually no beer) AND I’d like to track down the chap who stole my underwater that were drying in the hotel window last time I was there.
I want to escape to South Wales, because the cliffs are breathtaking, and the sheep don’t talk back.
Ha! Awesome comment. I studied overseas in Wales (Carmarthen) for one semester when I was in college and it was beautiful.
I would love to win this trip. I am soon hitting a big milestone — yes — the bit ‘5 0’. Yikes!!!! I would love to begin the next 1/2 century (OMG – the more I write – the older I feel – lol) on a trip to remember. I think I would return to Scotland to visit some old ghosts during a genealogy search for both my husband and my long lost/departed families. Who knows…..maybe I’ll bring one of our ghosts back with me 🙂
We would love the travel to Europe and China, but top on the list is Belize! We have friends from Belize and would love to travel with them and see their family. Their family has come here before, so it’s our turn to visit!
I would like to escape into space. Float around in zero gravity and swim through the spaceship catching floating balls of grape juice and maltesers that hover deliciously in front of my nose. I would like to see the earth rise and marvel at things like the Great Wall of China and bulging cities and alien space craft and passing satellites.
Failing that I would love to escape to the Galapagos Islands and swim with the fishes.
I am 33 🙂
I want to escape to Denmark as a starting point. My ancestors came from a Viking clan in Denmark and over the centuries wandered to the US. I want to hit each significant spot on their journey- Denmark, Normandy France, Scotland, Ireland, and on to the US. Of course, I’ll enjoy the cultural aspects of each instead of burning villages, stealing gold, and taking prisoners. That would create havoc with exit visas and carry on bags.
I was 50 this year and I spent my 45th birthday in Auckland Bay on a RTW trip. I’ve spent a lot of the last 5 years trying to find a way to get back to NZ, which is the only one of 40-something countries that I’ve visited where i felt genuinely sad to leave. It felt like home, and i want to go back, badly. Right now i am working in Slovakia (EFL teaching) and need to get somewhere more kiwified! Thanks
I’d go to SE Asia with my wife. We are setting off for South America this December, so why not use this to jump over to our next continent. Sure we’d likely need a little extra airfare to get us both there, but with all the other prizes we will have a great foundation once we touch down!
Or if we get accepted into the Peace Corps we could use the airfare to return to the US before the send us off to wherever we are needed. The rest of the prizes could help us on our adventure in South America.
Liking the new blog design!
I’m 27 and have been living in Spain for the past five years. While the life of sunshine and siestas more than suits me, I’ve been dying to escape to Africa and teach for a month or two like several of my friends have done. I’m thinking Namibia or Malawi…though, let’s face it, I’d settle for just escaping my master’s program and getting to nearby Málaga!
I want to escape from the isolation of NZ. It’s so darn expensive here! I turned 30 last month and I’m on a quest to see 100 countries before I’m 40. I’m only at 22 so I need to get a wiggle on!!!
Why have I not discovered your blog before? It’s fabulous! My son is two but we’ve already taken him to the Amalfi Coast, Barcelona and the Swiss Alps…. we’re building up to long haul and your blog is an inspiration!
Our dream escape would be to Sri Lanka – the tea, the tastes, the elephants, the snorkelling, the Buddhas, the tuk tuks! Just gorgeous.
Oh, and I’m 38!
I would love to escape together with my family to Venice for a weekend!
Cool photo taken with a durian!
I have had enough of the cold and rain of England and Scotland and would love to escape to South East Asia ASAP! Malaysia is looking pretty good to me right now.
aww would put it towards Borneo and the swing bridge now thats back on the to do list (brownie points) lol and would also have to have something to do with the wildlife animals!
Age? Do we need that? Really? 20, there you have it, yo!. Or whatever.
opps age 41 but 30 at heart lol
I’m 49. If I was to travel solo, I’d go to one of the following destinations that I haven’t visited: Machu Picchu, Peru, or Greece as I’m interested in ancient history/ architecture or Portugal as I read that Lisbon is a nice city, and the Algarve has nice beaches. However, I have a cute son and I’d take him with me to any place with nice, sandy beach as he loves playing with sand, and we enjoy each other’s company when we travel 🙂
New York! I would love to go and wander in central park and see the Empire State building.
(age 50 )
I’m 39, my hubby is 38, and my boys are 10 & 9 years old. We’re gearing up for long term travel, starting with a practice trip to the UK in February. Isn’t it creative to leave our grey, chilly Seattle, Washington winter to go to, um, grey, chilly UK?
Seriously though…we want to go anywhere and everywhere. However, we would use this airfare to go to one of the many remote-ish islands my youngest son really wants to go. Probably Tasmania. It’s his first pick. I read many of your top 100 to my family on a car trip yesterday. #46 really struck a cord. And, we can’t wait to show our boys #49 around the world. Congrats on your great milestone!
Going to Costa Rica in a couple of months, so I can cross that off my bucket list. Next, my dream vacation would be to New Zealand because that is where the filmed LOTR/Hobbit! I’m 37.
I’d love to go to New York again, so I can shop, shop, shop! I’m 29
Leaving for Italy in a couple weeks… Still searching for a cheaper fare. Skyscanner was $100 less thank anywhere else!! Awesome! Take me to Italia!
Today, I would like to escape to Taipei, so I can have some delicious dumplings and a bubble tea 😀 Age? 37 and proud of it!
I would love to take my son Diego to Morocco, as he is dying to go to Africa!
I’m 38 and I’ve been thinking about how much I would love an escape from family and work to be blessedly ALONE!! I am now leaning towards Slovenia. Somewhat undiscovered place 🙂
We as a unschooling family would love to go to Greece! There we would reconnect with long lost family and explore the rich history of the land where some of our family comes from! We are setting our sights on becoming a worldschool family and I know that this would whet our appetites!
I’d like to escape to…anywhere! Ok, not ANYwhere. Just anywhere that I don’t have to cook/clean/change diapers. And preferably somewhere hot. Mama needs a break.
I’d escape to Italy, this time the south, Amalfi, or / and Puglia. I need to go to Italy because I’m an aspiring travel photographer and Italy is one big photo op. And there’s always a chance I’ll end up staying because I’ve met the man of my dreams.
Seeing as my attempt to strap myself to Curiosity failed and Mars is still out of reach, I’d like to escape to Iwakuni, Japan. I grew up there and haven’t been able to return for a visit (23 years and counting). My Mom recently went through chemo for breast cancer and I started a 1000 paper crane campaign. Little did I know that news reached my old neighborhood and they came together to fold 580 and sent them to my Mom. Not only would I like to return to my childhood home, I’d like to thank them in person. True story: http://cultivatehopeineducation.wordpress.com/2012/08/12/1000-paper-cranes-and-counting/
Aside from all this schmoopy moppy schtuff, Japan is awesome. I’d like to eat sushi until I puke, sing karaoke every night and see the cherry blossoms in spring.
P.S. Now I understand this is a giveaway and I shouldn’t be so particular but I have no desire to drive in Japan. There are bullet trains! Why would I drive!? No need for the rental car voucher for me and I don’t take tours, I’ve got my own two legs. They’ve gotten me in and out of plenty of adventures time and time again. And I don’t call people when I am escaping. Escape means escape.
I’d like to escape Down Under to Australia and New Zealand to see if everything is topsy turvy just because their seasons are opposite ours.
I live in Abu Dhabi where the weather is always the same. All. Year.Long. I know that I should hope for a tropical vacation like everyone else, but I want to go somewhere cold. Very cold. So cold that I’ll have to buy a coat I’ll never wear again. Perhaps even cold enough that I’ll feel like drinking hot chocolate, which I don’t really like. Again, someplace so cold that my skin will chap and turn red from windburn. I’m thinking Poland, or Russia. Or maybe Detroit.
$400 in flights isn’t going to get the three of us very far. Perhaps if I won, I’d nip off for a lovely holiday ON MY OWN. I’m dying to visit a friend in Mongolia and Sri Lanka’s looking pretty good too.
I’m a perpetual 35. 🙂
Anywhere away from the GMT +8 timezone would be nice for a change! I’m thinking Ecuador, specifically the Galapagos Islands.
I’m 107, but don’t look it most days. I’d totally be putting that flight money towards a trip to the Galapagos. Need to get there, like, yesterday.
I’m 23. I’d definitely love to escape to the Maldives. Got to see it before it sinks!
I’m 25 (in 12 days) and I’d love to escape to Hawaii! I’ve been dreaming of it since I was 10. I think it’s about time I make this 15 year dream come true!
CHINA, CHINA, CHINA! We are about to escape round the world with our children for as long as possible and as far as possible. My 6 year old desperately wants to visit China for the Great Wall, the food and just the whole China vibe. Some freebies would get us off to a good start. Thanks ( now I’ve found another travel blog to read!) Alyson.
I would combine my airmiles points (needed to get to the Northern Hemi!!), and bounce from the Middle East to Croatia and explore by roadtrip, including a visit to Sarajevo, which I have always wanted to see! Perfect!
Age!!?? Eeek! I am over 25….at the time of comp close I will be 34, but 35 just after that – thanks for reminding me! 😉
I think somewhere in South America would be awesome… Snowboarding in a Chilian Ski Resort!
I’m 21. At first i wanted to go across Europe to Nepal by car or motorcycle, but even more, I would love to go to Italy, beause it feels much more like home than the place i’m currently at.
What an amazing competition! When I was 20 I visited Italy. Now I am 31, married, with two kids and I would love to take them all to Italy. It won’t be the same, but Im sure it will be better. The art, the culture, the pizza, the gelato, the history, the religion. It has everything. And of course the thing I never saw while there is number one – The Blue Grotto; Capri, Italy. Perhaps we could manage a stop at the weirdly beautiful terraced pools of Pamukkale in Turkey?
i live in norway and am already suffering through temperatures that are colder than anything ive ever felt…and its OCTOBER! i need a winter escape somewhere warm before i end up buried under heaps of snow!
and the place would have lots of winter sunlight 😉 beggers cant be choosers
So you’re probably pretty sympathyless, but I’m a Texas girl freezing my ass off already in Germany. TAKE ME SOMEWHERE WARM AND I’LL BE FOREVER INDEBTED! I also just moved and have ZERO money to fulfill my travel itch, always cool.
I would like to escape from Bergen, Norway and go to San Diego, CA. I haven’t been home in almost two years. I don’t not have the finances to go back home and see my sister graduate and head off to college. Norway is really hard on foreigners. I can’t get a job, a drivers license cost more than 4,000 USD, my husband and I have to live in his parents basement apartment, and now knowing I can’t go home for another year and a half is horrible. So I’d go home and see my family even though my husband and I haven’t had our honeymoon yet.
Get me out of ASIA! pretty please? ^_^
I want to escape to Germany or Austria, (or Italy, England, Lithuania, Norway, Turkey etc etc).. I’m above 18 and just want to travel to other continents, so please get me out of here :))
If we could escape to anywhere? We’d escape to EVERYWHERE!! The World is huge, with amazing things to see, and experiences to have (a Babel-fish would be nice, too!!).
We’d visit old friends in other countries that we’ve met while they were visiting Australia, and Australian friends who have chosen to move to another country- going to- Scotland, Ireland, England, Japan, Canada, America, Brazil, France, Germany & New Zealand, so far, off the top of my head.
We’d see all the sights & experience all the cultures, try all the food & learn all the dances, go from the calm of diving at the Maldives to the chaos of buying silk at a Chinese marketplace, from ice to desert, rainforest to ocean, totally lose ourselves in the World.
And Why? For the experience, and for the love of it!
Given the prize, however, we’d probably opt for a trip to Adelaide, to visit some of the family, with a lovely Dive with the Dolphins thrown in, because it sounds amazing, and a drive around the Adelaide Hills, because they’re lovely 🙂
Hi again, just letting you know, we’re totally old enough to be driving a car… 41 & 36 respectively 😉 (Oooh, & China, we’d like to add that, too… and….)
Tonga, ever since i heard the name i have wanted to escape there, it looks so beautiful, with ancient culture and beauty everywhere, foods , customs , lovely.
I’m 28 and a Special Education Teacher and my Mom who grew up in the 1950’s on a VERY rural farm in the southern part of the U.S. taught me to dream of traveling at a young age. She’s always wanted to go to Australia. So If I win, I’ll take my Mama on the trip she’s always dreamed about.
I’m working for a study abroad company, which basically means I sit at a desk reading and writing about the amazing destinations students are heading off to– so right now I’m very jealous! After writing so much about it without having ever seen it, I’d like to go to Barcelona to see the Gaudi architecture and Park Guell.
I am 49 and my 3 (of 9) youngest children and I just enjoyed biking along the C & O Canal. We had such a lovely time! I would want to go somewhere warm that has some fantatic biking scenery. Do you have any great ideas for me?
Well, yes, I have a bunch of them. But we’re in Bali right now, which has the most seductive landscape of ricefields and temples, palms and hills and herons, plus a couple of volcanoes. And it’s tropical, so warm all year round…
I’m turned 40 this year and although usually I would say my favourite destination would be the South if France as its my 40th year I’m going to say that I would love to see the Northern Lights, I’ve read it’s the best year to see them and I think it would be spectacular so for a once in a lifetime expierence I would love to do that.
Albuquerque, New Mexico so I can catch a ride into space via Virgin Galactic (by way of the VLA and the Trinity test site where the first atom bomb was dropped). I think that ride is a bit more than what one sands to win here, but you just asked where and not that it had to be realistic, just that I wanted to do it. 😛
I will travel anywhere!!! I have a hankering to see Antarctica and breathe in the cold fresh air. I want to hear ice crash into the water and see what wildlife tolerates the temperatures.
Being over 40 and thinking I am at least 29 years old makes me feel better about my true age. Age real is a measure on someone else’s measurement tool. Youth is in the heart and your actions;)
Norway. It’s absolutely gorgeous & unlike anywhere else. I want to hike around the fjords!
I’ve been pining for Mexico lately – think we’d do the Pacific coast. There’s a statue in Mazatlan I want to get my picture taken in front of.
I think my ideal escape would have to be somewhere in central or south America. I’m not sure where yet, but I’m leaning toward somewhere like Mexico.
Great giveaway btw!
ooh I forgot to say I’m 33! (argh – crap at reading instructions obviously….)
The dream is to drive from Ireland to South America! It will involve months of living in a truck but I hope this dream will come true.
I’m 45 and NEED to take a bit of a sabbatical from work!! Alaska is my top choice, as I would like to test my outdoor skills in a rugged environment!
A trip to the Big Island of Hawaii sounds pretty tempting right about now!
Oh – why. It’s Hawaii – do I really need to give a reason? It’s, you know, awesome and tropical and relaxing and beautiful and there’s a live volcano there.
Duuuude. Age too? You didn’t ask for age in the purple thing that says, “All you need to do is leave me a comment saying where you’d like to escape to and why, then click ENTER on the widget.” I’m 39.
I am 25 and I’d like to travel, with my fiance, to Pakistan. I’d love to see the other half of the partitioned India, meet the people, hear their language, see their culture. I’d love to BUST some stereotypes of Americans and be a great ambassador for my country ANNNNNNND I would wet my pants, faint, cry and then laugh manically at the sight of the KKH (Karakoram highway). whooot whoot! Islamabad, KKH, K2, trekking, other side of the Wagah border (only been on the Indian side). Thanks for the great contest!!
I want to go to Istanbul and soak in the Black Sea and eat baklava and Turkish coffee for breakfast and see the Blue Mosque!
I plan on moving to Chiang Mai with my 9yr old son mid February for 6 months so this would help. My other choices would be Ecuador or Paris (his choice).
I would totally go to Cappadocia because that ballooning looks amazing, and I want to do more of that, having whet my appetite for taking balloon photos down in Spain 😀
Wow! This is an awesome giveaway. I’d love to win and either go to Cuba or Southeast Asia!
I could really use a lovely sunny beach getaway this winter because it gets really cloudy in the winter where I live.
We are trying to decide where to take our next family vacation in 2013 since it will be the last before our oldest daughter leaves for college. Want to make it special!
I want to travel all around South America to TRULY become fluent in Spanish. Being a counselor in the future for women + children rescued from sex trafficking necessitates another language in my mind, and Spanish is it.
Dream destination: Mongolia. Why? I’ve always dreamed of riding a yak across the Gun Galuut Nature Reserve, tenting out in the Cobi Desert, and participating in the arching event of the Naadam Festival, clothed in traditional deel wardrobe.
I would love to win an Escape to Guayaquil, Ecuador! My family (My husband Rob, beautiful son Makai and me) is in the process of selling most of what we own to slow travel through South America. We have yet to sell our home and get our Expat Experiment under way:( Winning an Escape to to Guayaquil would be the kick start this family adventure needs!
If we could escape to anywhere? We’d escape to EVERYWHERE!! The World is huge, with amazing things to see, and experiences to have (a Babel-fish would be nice, too!!).
We’d visit old friends in other countries that we’ve met while they were visiting Australia, and Australian friends who have chosen to move to another country- going to- Scotland, Ireland, England, Japan, Canada, America, Brazil, France, Germany & New Zealand, so far, off the top of my head.
We’d see all the sights & experience all the cultures, try all the food & learn all the dances, go from the calm of diving at the Maldives to the chaos of buying silk at a Chinese marketplace, from ice to desert, rainforest to ocean, totally lose ourselves in the World.
And Why? For the experience, and for the love of it!
Given the prize, however, we’d probably opt for a trip to Adelaide, to visit some of the family, with a lovely Dive with the Dolphins thrown in, because it sounds amazing, and a drive around the Adelaide Hills, because they’re lovely (& there’s cheese & wine!) 🙂
I want to go on an African safari. Our family loves wildlife and there’s nowhere else in the world quite like it. Zoos don’t cut it anymore 🙂
I would love to escape to africa. I have been to mexico a couple times and the experience was amazing but I feel like going to africa and experiencing a whole new world would be incredible. I don’t wanna escape to another paradise I wanna escape to another world.
I want to escape to Rome – been there done that – but I want to go for more!!
Oooh…I’d escape to East Africa. I would lie and say it’d be to do dissertation fieldwork, but who can honestly write essays in Zanzibar.
Besides Israel, which is next in my plans, definitely Jordan.
wishing in a flight of freedom to Crete, a free dive
Iceland. We would love to take our son to Iceland, and knitnerd that I am, I want to see Icelandic knitting and sheep. That’s right, I want to win so I can see sheep.
I would love to visit New York City!
I would like to go to a pilgrimage from the Pyrenees of France to Santiago de Compostela in Spain. My Dad promised me when I was still a kid that we will go there together, but he suddenly died of cardiac arrest nine years ago.
My name is Joel from the Philippines, and I would like to fulfill that promise for my Dad, even if he’s gone. I hope I get this chance.
I want to go to Socotra off the coast of Yemen. Everyone keeps telling me it’s too dangerous but it’s still relatively untouched and has a ton of exotic life that is located no where else on earth. It would be awesome to have the opportunity to visit!
California, to visit my favorite uncle that i don’t see enough of. If I were to leave the country, I’d choose Costa Rica.
I want to escape to Thailand to go on an elephant jungle trek!
I’d love to escape to Asia visiting Bali, Vietnam, China, Papua New Guinea and many others with my beautiful baby girl to begin to show her how beautiful life can be. To soak up the warmth both from the sun and the people and create the life I’ve always dreamed of for our little family full of passion, purpose and endless possibility.
Mommy age 32, Daddy age 35, Baby Gigi age 10 weeks ;-))
Feeling the need to visit Canada again. This time with my kids. They keep saying they want to go. I think Canadian Rockies would be a great introduction to this wonderful country.
For me i never saw a real snow in my life and wont be sure if i will be able to do that during my life or not!! if i have a wish i will be happy to visit a country which have loads and loads of snow. Who know dreams might comes true one day!
travel travel
far and wide
where to go
i can’t decide
here the competition’s tough
must work hard
strut my stuff
sea and sand
snowy slope
is saying ‘both’
too much to hope
how to slice
between the two
i’ve been before
nothing new
i love to ski
i love to dive
how they make me
feel alive
back to Dahab
plane to Sharm
cost is low
so there’s no harm
in flying to Geneva too
see my daughter
eyes so blue
Theodora
please tell Zac
i’ve made my choice
when do I pack?
I’d escape to Chicago, USA, because my Dad lives there and I’ve not seen him for over 2 years!
Hi again Theodora,
In the rush to post my poem above, I didn’t spot that the first word of the last line should be ‘when’ and not ‘what’. I know I’m being OCD as usual – my fault and I should know better – a failed perfectionist; but ‘when’ makes better sense at the end, seeing as the poem already indicates that packing might be complicated.
I guess you don’t have a lot of time to reply to silly demands of this nature, but I’d be so grateful if you could help with this one, teeny-weeny edit. If not, no probs, I promise not to bear any grudge 🙂
Thanks and best wishes,
Alison.
I have time for ANYONE who writes me a poem! Fixing it for you now…
And… also, I am loving all these entries…
Thank you SO much!
I really want to go to Lisbon: I’m a sucker for metropolitan transportation systems and I just found out about the street elevators.
I would love to escape to GreenLand. The reason is simple, i just want to taste the adventure trip and toughest extreme sports on such kinds of places! Thanks
China please! My 6 year old son says it’s his favorite country, so we have to go to keep young sir happy.
54 YRS. Tonga i need to go Tonga, stunningly beautiful, you can swim with whales and they love to have a gathering/party where whole spit roasted suckling pig is thoroughly enjoyed,happy faces, beautiful people, a life time dream.
Send me somewhere warm quiet and relaxing my kids are driving this 44 year old single dad nuts.
Oi galera! Vou escrever em Português para ganhar mais pontos de criatividade. Me chamo Rodrigo e eu tenho 27 anos…… brincadeira
My name is Rodrigo and I am 27 years old. Since I am Brazilian, I think I would most like to go to Mozambique to meet another colony of Portugal and see how the mixture of the native African cultures and languages with the Portuguese has created a special culture (similar to how the mixture of African, Indigenous and Portuguese has created a special culture, language and accent here in Brazil). I would, of course, also love to see the beaches, the history and the wildlife there as well! I mean really, just go look up Mozambique in google images and you’ll see! Thanks!
I am 27.
“Its not the destination, but the journey that matters most.”
Using the airline voucher, I’d fly to Chicago with my father. From there, we would rent a car (a convertible of course) and begin traveling down Route 66 to Los Angeles. We would stop and visit the Trail of Tears, the big blue whale and Cadillac Ranch.
If you combine my age with my father’s age and divided by 4, we would still be over 25 years of age.
I would like to travel because it terrifies me; the thought of travelling alone with my son, having responsibility for him in new places & making decisions without another adult present, who loves him as much as I do, scares me to the point of paralysis. I was never like this before – I often travelled independently, even as a teen.
My son is going to be 9 in January. I too am a single mum. Perhaps one trip will lead to more ‘travels with a nine year old’ adventuring?
I’d like to start by taking my son to Corfu to find out more about Gerald Durrell he read about in ‘My family and other animals’ (who lived a lifestyle my son craves – freedom, intellectual & physical). There is a week in May that looks fascinating for a start: http://www.durrell-school-corfu.org/GDCorfu2012.htm
Education & Exploration – a lifestyle that really draws my interest right now. I’m not quite ready at this point to take on a neverending journey … but a taster may well set the fire alight. 🙂
Ooops…realise that was not particularly creative!..will blame this on a wet day spent persuading my son to go to School – dragging him up the hill…to an evening trying to persuade him away from his after school club…
Yours, shattered mother of gorgeous 8 year old son. (38)!
Well, you can always have another go…. I don’t think I’ve communicated how the competition works terribly well – but it’s a lovely comment, anyway.
Thank you 🙂
The US. Why? Because sometimes it IS nice to visit…even if it most certainly is not home for us, anymore!! 🙂 I think by next summer my family will want to see us again!
(wow…that sounds so lame. Should I have said I want to go to Bali and Italy first? Hmm…because I most certainly DO!)
I just turned 21! I’m definitely too young to sit in an office before I saw the world. Cause I´m young and FREE! God of travel please rescue me! I´m ready to travel whereever the wind will carry me, just set me free 😀
Hello. I would like to go on a Cargo Ship as a passenger, preferably across the Atlantic.
I’d love to go travelling to Australia as I have never been before. I am from the UK and apart from America, I have only ever been to countries in Europe. It is a dream of mine to travel to other far away destinations and Australia looks the perfect place to go! I am 26 years old.
The thing I miss most about being away from home is “being connected” with those I love and miss from home. I wait anxiously for emails or messages. So, because you are away from home, I am expecting you like to “stay connected” too. I will give you hints of where I would like to go and why as a message on your Facebook page. A little puzzle to keep you connected to someone who is reading and give you a little anticipation every day.
Anywhere away from it all
I want to escape to Iran. It’s somewhere I’m being continually told is too dangerous to visit, to alien, to hostile. But I know that is far from the truth. I want to get out there and see for myself because I’m convinced that it’ll be one of the greatest places I’ve ever been. With some of the most hospitable and interested people anywhere. If I got out there I’d tell the world the truth, whatever I found, and try so hard to break down the lies and propaganda we hear at home.
Of course, if it turned out to be impossible to use this prize to reach Iran then I’d go and explore the American Dream in a road trip around California, probably fitting in Coachella festival and a nice trundle around plenty of vineyards!
So here goes my attempt at the extra entries for creativity
Now 26, I’m itching to see all countries in Asia before I fly farther to the west. I am excited to hop from one Asian country to another, making memories along the way.
corralego on fuerteventura, we spent our honeymoon there, and it truly was paradise, we are desperate to go back but have’nt been able to afford to
my dream is to be in Time Square, New York to welcome in a New Year. Not just to see the ball drop (they so need to change the name of that event!!!) – but also to do Christmas Shopping and hopefully get tickets to see Wicked on Broadway. I’ve never been to the USA – but definately will in the future.
My Husband grew up in various places in New South Wales Australia from the age of 4 to 16 years old when his parents moved back to the UK.
He remembers that time in his life so fondly and is always talking about what a great childhood he had.
and I know he would love go back for a visit, to see old school friends and take me to all the places from his stories.
It would be an amazing surprise and I know I would love it to as I have always wanted to go to Australia.
I am 30 years old 🙂
I’d like to escape to London because London has everything: great theatre, restaurants, shopping, soccer games, sightseeing.
I would love to be able to travel to Italy! As Unschoolers, we love to travel, and to learn by living..what better way to learn than to dive-in…head first and emmerse yourself. We all (Mysel, wife, and 11 and 8 year old daughters) have the dream to be able to go to Italy.
I would love to go to Fork’s, Washington. I’m a massive Twilight fan and my dream is to see the actual film locations. It would be amazing!!
I’m 27 and I’d like to go to Bali because I already have accommodations which I won too haha! I’m hoping winning this could complete an all-expense paid trip and a couple more stopover trips for my birthday! =)
Why I want to go again
I could never tell
but I do…
and every time
there’s a different reason
and every one of them
takes me back
to Paris. with Love.
Southern Europe in the spring!
Hmmm…would I have to take the children with me if I win? Does this come with babysitting services provided by you? That makes ALL the difference. My girls can cook, are good at cleaning and our little guy would idolize Zac in ways he could only imagine.
Nah…wouldn’t be as much fun without them, so I’d have to pick Austria…when it is warm…and take the cheesy “Sound of Music” tour and dress the children up in draperies and make them sing “Do Re Mi” while spinning around on a mountain top while I do my best to impersonate Julie Andrews. Then reward them with some chocolate. Sounds like a plan, don’t you think?
Oops…didn’t realize I needed to post my age (38) until I clicked that I posted a comment. Maybe I need to rewards myself with some chocolate right now…
Yes, that requirement’s causing a lot of hassle. I should maybe have left it out as a requirement. But, y’know, I don’t want to go giving the car hire to someone who’s too young to drive or hire a car.
I would like to escape to Canada and enjoy the view, the snow, the culture, everything.
21
Thailand – because of the Wonderful food choices, cheap places to stay and the amazing culture!
Ops forgot to say my age – 21 forever 🙂
Acutally 38 but please dont tell anyone.
I’m 28 years old and I have yet to visit Europe. For my very first visit it would have to be France. To eat and drink and see everything it has to offer!
Italy. I find the place so stimulating and romantic, rustic and ethereal. Netherlands comes close but Italy was always on the top on my list!
21 🙂

I want to escape to Paris, France, I want to see the City of Lights 😀 TO explore everything that it got to offer. 😀 I’m 20 years Old 😀
Hi. I’m from Brazil and I’m living in India now, my next stop I’d like to be Turkey or Tanzania. I would like to go as part of a mission, I’ve been traveling and want to keep traveling long enough to collect sufficient material for a project called “Notes of Hope” while I go I collect notes of people I meet along the way, talking about their dreams and wishes, in the end I’ll produce a book designed by different artists, representing the culture from the different places, which makes very important to pass by different countries, from India I’m already able to go to SEA and after Iran and Turkey, Africa would be a great call.

I wouldn’t go far, I would take my horse to a local beach for a gallop and a swim
Since I’m already in Indonesia I’d love to go to Papua to see the culture there. Specially that whenever I mention this to Indonesian people they laugh at me and say “why do you want to go to see naked people? they are stupid people and they are not civilized!” and this makes me want to go even more! Because now I am sure that in Papua the culture and traditions are still kept alive!
And in general I would just love to escape, anywhere! You know I really don’t want to head back home any time soon 😀
I’m 23 😛
Having enjoyed and been inspired by your posts over the years, a difficult choice. I’d probably look to YOUR top 3 to choose from if one of them included scuba diving.
If I were to stay local in the 50 states I would like to go to New Mexico I’ve always wanted to go there. If I were to go International I would travel to Ireland, to go and see where me ancestors lived and get back to my roots. I’m 44 and have been married for 16 yrs. I have a son 16 and the only vacation we’ve ever been on was to Connecticut, we live in NY so not far at all. Hope I win, Thanks!
I want to escape to Paris with my hubby to celebrate our 12th wedding anniversary….
I’d like to escape to the bay islands of Honduras to get my open dive certification! Or even Mexico during a cold winter month …
I’d like to escape to the UK. I’ve never been there, and I’ve been dreaming about it since I was little.
I live in the UK – you have to come over some time, it’s lovely. Scotland is gorgeous, all wild and mystical, Wales is loads of beautiful rolling hills, but England is my home and I can’t recommend it highly enough. London for the culture, Cornwall for the coast and the people. I love the US and visit when I can – but I always come home.
I want to escape because I’ve been in a freakin’ hospital since October 3rd and ANYWHERE would be better than here. :]
Seriously though, I’d like to escape to Hong Kong and make the first step towards registering my business there.
And just for you Zac… ;]

I want to escape to Paris with my brother to celebrate sports victory.
New Zealand. My mum and stepdad have been there for going on 18 months now, they will come home in a few months but I’d love to go and see them. Why? Partly because I miss them and I’d love to see the places they talk about, but if I’m being honest… mainly because I’m a single parent with a wonderful, but extremely hard work 4 year old, and if I went to see my mum she’d get up with my daughter and let me lie in! Oh, a lie in… haven’t had one of them for almost 5 years. Is New Zealand too far to go for a lie in? Nope! (Oh, I’m 36 by the way)
I would love to escape to Peru and Chile with my fiancé. I just applied for my passport today and have not been out of the country yet. I am super excited to see the world, and going to Peru has always been my dream! I can’t wait to see it 🙂
I would love to escape to New Zealand as I have heard its fabulous there and the backdrop to many amazing movies for obvious reasons.
My dream trip would be Japan as i love the culture but there are so many places i would love to see such as Norway and the Northern Lights and Peru Inca Trail. Im 32
Have you ever seen Alice in the Wonderland? I loved that movie as a child, well truthfully the first time I saw it,it actually frightened me, then I fell in love!! I watched the movie over and over again just imagining what it would be like to be Alice for a day in that exotic and enchanting forest. I always imagined a place like that never existed, but in fairytales or in my case daydreams. I recently read an article about a place that was 250 miles of the southern coast of Somalia called the Yemeni Island of Socotra described to be like something out of Alice in the Wonderland. I instantly googled everything I could find out about this Island described as a fairytale and about the size of long Island!! Apparently things in dreams do exist and I would be blessed to excape to Yemeni Island of Socotra!!
Sri Lanka. Crumbling forts and colonial buildings, elephants and beaches, places of historical significance in SE Asia. And, of course the beach.
any where sunny

I want to go somewhere I haven’t been yet… how about Ireland? Always wanted to visit Dublin!
think I need an escape artiste to help me get out from under this pile of work and bills >.<
I would like to escape to Svalbard. I just turned 40
I want to go to somewhere with no internet. Preferably right now.
I want to go to Croatia and soak in the blue, blue waters!
I’d love to see the rock-cut churches of Ethiopia. 40+ years ago it was a toss up whether we went to Afghanistan or Chad. We chose Afghanistan because it was easier to get a travel grant (Hellenistic remains, any-one?)and the £250 my college gave me funded three months of travel in the summer of 1969. So now I’d like to go to Africa, and of all the things I want to see, Lalibele tops the list. (63)
I’d escape to China. I really want to walk along the Great Wall and see the Terracotta Army.
New York! Would love to get swept up in the busy city, take in some key sights and enjoy the excitement in the run up to Christmas. Nowhere says Christmas like New York!
I’m thinking a long weekend in Paris would do…
I would love to go to Australia! The animals and scenery are just amazing and Im afraid they wont be there much longer. I am 44.
i would love to escape to laos – spent a long time there as a traveller and would love to go back with my son and show him a stunning country where people have hearts of gold!!!
I would love to go to Hawaii with my loving fiance because he does so much for me and i would love to treat him.
I’d love to escape to Malaysia. 🙂
I would like to go to Canada in the Fall – It’s beautiful. I am 42.
I would love to go to a place where there are no flights available from Skyscanner or where there is no need for car rental but a dream place full of adventure and activities. You name it for me and I completely agree!
I would put this money towards travelling again to Arnhem Land and maybe this time spending enough time to work in some of the special communities over there. Our favourite was Mapuru where the people opened their hearts to us. We would all love to work in their little school and pay back a little of their generosity. Thought Zac might be interested in the little story my son wrote when we spent a couple of nights there in 2007. http://www.arnhemweavers.com.au/tours-2007_september.htm
Note: Ramesh is the one wearing the brown t’shirt with the pink elephant from our visit to Sri Lanka the previous year. 🙂
new york i guess im 41
I would escape to Tenerife because of the many happy beautiful memories I have there 🙂 x
I would like to escape to South Africa because a South African safari is something I have always dreamed of!
Mauritius: I have vivid dreams about this destination!
I’d like to give my mom the chance to have a break! I’d use the skyscanner money to book her a flight, hand her a ticket, and make her take a much needed vacation 🙂
I’m 30
I love travelling, getting to know new cultures, new people, seeing different landscapes…
It’s like my eyes absorb everything they see, they are always hungry and never get enough of it.
I love speaking to foreign people, trying to understand their different point of view, improving my language skills…
Though my age I love comic books and hero suffs, and guess what super power I would like to have? Teleportation ( or teleport?)
Just to escape…anywhere!…but I do not have enough money at the moment. I’m an Italian student and unemployed (crisis everywhere!)…
Actually, I would like to escape to the beautiful Australia, a one-way ticket, looking for a job there, starting my life from scratch.
My lover lives there, so if I win, I can also stop daydreaming about a real life with him.
I swear, this is the competition a daydream about everyday 🙂 An evidence of some days ago http://imageshack.us/a/img507/5162/daydreaming.jpg
Anyway, if something is meant to happen, it’ll happen.
Congrats for 1000 days and thank you so much for this huge opportunity.
P.S. Sorry if I made some language mistakes…Oh, I’ll be 25 on Christmas day 🙂 Hope to celebrate it in a warm place 😛
escape……really has to be – ‘anywhere but here’…but somewhere on the amazon, fishing for piranha and swimming with river dolphins, would be kind of peachy…
BERLIN!!!!…..because it’s cool and to see my man!! xx
I want to escape to the world! I just got laid off for the first time in my 35 yrs in the work force & am going to do just that. Could use some money!! Lol
Seeing as my Fiance and I will be spending our first Christmas in Singapore as part of phase one- become expats and save money before quitting our jobs and traveling and running our online business- We would use the prize to go to Myanmar, Srilanka or Cambodia !!! First 2 we have never been too and Cambodia is one of those places I cant get enough of !!!
I cant drive (Tried a few times and failed miserably) but make an excellent passenger… I do have a Fiance (He is 26) who loves to drive which is fortunate as I love being driven!! Our favorite holidays have been renting a car and getting as lost as possible!!!
Phillipines , something different but with familiarity
Hi there! I almost gave up on this, because I was sure I wouldn’t win, but I decided to bring my brave travel momma self here to enter, instead. I’ previously stated (in the wrong section) that i wanted to go to India, but I’ve got two girls (and a husband) who try to travel like you do, but sometimes hit a rut. We are stuck in America, and would love a little, just a little help getting o Thailand, so that they can ride the elephants on the beach, and they can practice their Chinese in China. We have been trying to get to Asia for 6 years, and it never happens. Do I win?
Congrats on your first 1000 days! Here’s to the next 1000+!
I’ve always wanted to escape to Dubai and have an adventure in the desert excess!
Just want to go to the beach and wad in the water 50
I’d escape to Burma in search of age old temples. 🙂
I want to escape to Vietnam so I can see Pongua falls,halong bay and eat pho to my heart’s content!
I’ve long been interested in running away to the east coast of Canada, to fish me up some lobster!
So may places I’d like to escape to!! Top of my list right now, though, is Scotland. I’m MAJORLY obsessed!
It looks like you need to know my age… I’m 38 🙂
I have been planning a round-the-world trip forever and one of the things that has prevented it from happening is money (lack of!). So this prize would really help
Marrakech! I want to take a cooking lesson there. 😀
I’d love to visit Scandinavia to see where my husband’s ancestors come from!
P.S. twenty-eight years old 😉
Asia!
I would love to go to Prague since I’ve never been there. I also, interestingly enough, have a large tattoo that is based on a card from a tarot deck called the “Tarot of Prague” by Baba Studio (you can google it) that references artwork and artifacts found all over that city! I am 35.
I’d escape to Maldives for a winter holiday – it might be a honeymoon destination but doesn’t matter, I’m not married and I want to see it anyway – I can do it alone 😉 24.
Would love to go to New York. Been a dream since a kid, so many memories of great films from the city.
Japan since I haven’t been
I’d go to Japan, then I’d come back and try to go back to japan all over again
I’d love to take a ski vacation. We visited Breckenridge this summer and it was awesome. I’d love to go back for ski season.
Japan
