So where would I like to visit?
I think I’d like to visit every country in the world. I can do that virtually on YouTube and Google Earth. I don’t imagine that I’ll ever be doing it physically. I live in Ireland, and I’ve often been to the UK, but I would like to go back to the same places and some new places in Wales, England and Scotland. I also developed an interest in the Alps a few years ago. I had the VZfit virtual cycling game on my Oculus and I found myself cycling through a village near Mount Blanc. That set me off on binge-watching YouTube videos of people holidaying in the Alps.
So, I suppose that would make me want to visit:
- France
- Monaco
- Switzerland
- Italy
- Liechtenstein
- Germany
- Austria
- Slovenia
I’d like to see Israel too, given that I’ve read about so much of it in the Scripture and all the places where the Apostle Paul visited across Syria, Turkey and Greece. But I’ll probably just do it all virtually. I’m an armchair traveler 😀.
Travel seems so central to modern life, but in the past, not everyone travelled much. I remember watching a show about South London a few years ago and an elderly lady living there said that she’d never been north of the River Thames 😀. I think the furthest I went was Pompei in Italy, and that was many years ago.
Anyway, this being a Christian blog, I’d like to close with a hymn and a verse about the whole earth in the future:
Isa 11:9
9 They will neither harm nor destroy on all my holy mountain, for the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the Lord as the waters cover the sea.
I’d like to think that we’ll do a lot of travelling then. And I won’t have to struggle with sore feet and getting lost all the time 😀.
