So far the coolest place I have been is Costa Rica. We saw a lot of cool herps: iguanas, american crocodiles, dwarf caiman, spectacle caiman, all different kinds of frogs, cane toads, and a slender hog nosed viper. Not bad for only being able to dedicate 1 day to herping. We went on our Honeymoon. BUt I really want to go to South America and see Anacondas in the wild, Africa, Australia, and Galapagos Islands to see some awesome tortoises before its too late.

It was a luxary of the job I did from 2002 until 2008. The down side was only getting to spend a couple days here and there with my family for a total of about 60 days for the year.
After that I got a 8 to 4 desk job for a little over a year and really learned I am not one to sit behind a desk.
I quit that one and just started a new job last Friday (Nov. 6th). I'm back to travelling, but it is supposed to be a lot less travel. About 6 months out of the year and most if not all will be domestic. I think the wife likes that since I think she was sick of seeing me every night for a year. No matter how much you love someone you need some seperation time to help you appreciate each other fully. That has always been my major concern if I ever hit the lottery, what would I do to make sure I wasn't home and annoying the heck out of the wife every day!

Woe David, you've been a lot of sweet places. I hope I'll have the chance to see as many cool countries. Looking forward to my trip to Australia this coming April! I'll let you know how it is:) Brian(Sbtv)

Lets see here! Slovenia was a really cool place to go and party. The people were really cool and friendly.
Spain was OK. It was nice to put my feet in the Meditranean sea, but the people were a little rude.
Aruba was really cool, but you have to go down to the locals section or you get raked over the coals everytime you buy dinner or a beer. The beaches were great.
Stay away from Trinidad, as the beaches suck and the people are rude. Supposedly Tobago is a lot better, but I wouldn't know.
Germany is so so, but I can't get over warm beer.
France would probably had been nice if I liked wine and art, but not for me!
Argentina would have been totally awesome if I wasn't married or at least didn't have any morals, if you all know what I mean.
I've been to several other countries and all the main land states in the US.
As for where I would like to go, I would love to go to Russia and see Moscow. My wife lived there for 6 months before we were married and talks about it a lot. I just want to see it so I can get a reference for some of the things she talks about. Another place I would like to go is on a walk about in the Australian outback. Ever since getting my Childrens pythons I have gained a big interest in finding out more about the Australian pythons. Various species, habitats, wild behavior, and what they actually eat in the wild. I would love to go for a year and just watch and document all the behaviors of the verious pythons in the Antarisia family as well as some of the other species of pythons in Australia.

I actually have two destinations on my bucket list. First, I would love to visit the Galapagos Islands. I think it would be soo cool to see all the Galapagos Iguanas basking on rocks and swimming in the ocean. The other place I really want to visit is Seal Island off the coast of South Africa. I would love to sit in a boat and watch Great White Sharks jump 15 feet in the air attacking seals. Who knows, maybe I will even get into a shark cage and watch the action from below the surface LOL!!.

Have yet to go to too many exciting destinations... but top of the dream list would have to be Socotras and that crazy crystal cave in south america. Which, anyone is forbidden from entering... but hey a dream's a dream?
