Cities you'd like to visit around the world - Darth-Apple - December 23rd, 2022
For me, it'd certainly be NYC (been once, want to see again), Los Angelos, Rome, London, and Tokyo.
What cities are on your bucket list to visit? Which cities have you visited that you would recommend?

I've been to both NYC and Washington DC... NYC I think the most memorable thing was standing atop the empire state building and seeing lines of taxi's that stretch off into the distance. for DC... it was the smithonian Museum
places I'd like to visit... Tokyo, Rio de Janeiro, Dubai, London, France... and while it's not technically a city.. McMurdo station. Because antarctica

Tokyo would be a great one. France seems like an excellent country as well, although learning the language would probably be difficult.

you'd be surprised actually. english is a mix of german, saxon, and french. and french is also a derivative of Roman latin. so if you're familiar with both english and at least one latin language it's a lot easier than say japanese

I tried to learn some French a little while ago, didn't get terribly far. Pronunciation is difficult.
Spanish is much easier for me, but perhaps that's just because I've been exposed to it for a good portion of my life.

Maybe put Quebec City on your list... you could get exposed to it there in a place where people speak both french and English...

Lucerne would be nice - or anywhere in Switzerland, really. Trouble is, the place is just so expensive!

For someone that can only understand about 2% French That would be AWESOME.
