How can I hope to start my own travel blog without sharing with you my own travel bucket list, right? I’m blessed to have ticked several places off my travel bucket list already—which I shall share with you in a separate entry—but just to put it out there, here’s a list of places I hope to visit soon, as of this writing. I know that as I tick more of these off my list, I’ll have to come up with a new one. After all, there’s really no cure for the travel bug.

I was inspired to come up with a more detailed, more elaborate travel bucket list after having dinner with a friend, Erwin Gonzales, just the other day. He’s blessed with a job that allows him to travel to several places several times a year (my dream!), and he loves travel enough to make this his luxury. I also consider travel my top luxury (you really wouldn’t catch me buying a luxury bag if I can spend that much money on a plane ticket to, say, the US or Europe), and I try to travel as much as I can, but wow, this guy has been to places I never even dreamed of visiting until I heard his stories!

Erwin documents some of his trips on his Flickr account (which you can visit here), although he only started doing so a couple of years ago. His account doesn’t even cover his travels from before that! As of this writing, I’m asking him to share more photos of those trips with me. I got his permission to post some of the photos from his Flickr account in the gallery below for my travel bucket list visualization, but here’s a rundown of 15 places I hope to visit in the next four years (with corresponding years, just to be more specific). To search and book a hotel in each place via Agoda, click the name of the country:
