Travel philosophy
Live to regret the things you've done, not the things you haven't done.
Craziest place
Depends on your definition of crazy. Hong Kong was definitely the most chaotic place I've ever visited.
Bizarre experience
Following my Balinese friend as we climbed a mountain and he hacked a path through the jungle so that we could visit his grandparents which still lived in their car-inaccessible tribal home among groves of coffee and clove trees, and who then assumed I was to be his new wife and brought out the dowry to show me after chasing down a chicken to kill it for dinner.
Advice
Don't overplan.
Dream destination
There are so many! I have been lots of great places I would to which I would like to return, as well as new places I would still like to experience. Would like to see China, Japan, Costa Rica, Vietnam, Morocco, Spain, Kenya, Egypt, many places in South America.
