Authors, Writers, Publishers, and Book Readers

If you could visit any country, which one would it be and why?

I would choose Norway. I have a lot of family in Norway that I have never met and I hear that quite a few of them are successful authors and musicians as well. I have looked at videos and pictures of different places in Norway and it just looks beautiful and seems like it'd be a great place to be. The city that I want to visit the most is Oslo. I believe that Oslo is the biggest city in Norway, however I do hear that things are very expensive in Oslo. I am very excited to go there and hopefully it'll be happening some time this year!!! Well please let me know where you would choose and why. Thank you, Phillip Christoffersen

I am lucky I have visited a lot of countries over the years. I would like to see Antartica though, it has always intrigued me. The white wildness with the sea approach. One day I will go there. The feeling of the place would be most humbling and enlightening I am sure. A little like being in the middle of a desert, though different.

That is cool. You don't hear many people wishing to go there. I however, would like to also one day. So what countries have you visited thus far? Thanks for your response Sean and I hope to hear back from you soon. Also, I hope you are having a great year so far.

Here is a link to my travel map so far.

I have been fortunate to travel the world, mostly by sea, having sailed for twenty years. Good life experiences. You see many things at sea that others do not. I would like to say it brings wisdom, but I still make my fair share of gaffs in life. Still it has helped form my perspective on the world which helps me, mostly.

I would pick Japan! Funny, I wrote a report about this same topic just the other day :) Lol, well first, I've always had a special tie to Japan, although I'm not sure what it is, does that make any sense? Oh yeah, and the culture! I think that the history, folk tales, and the way they have! I also think Japan is the most beautiful country in existence! :)
