One of the things that I always try to maintain in my past time is to travel the globe. Together with my husband, we try to squeeze in as much time as possible between our day jobs to travel. My ideal travel destinations are those without any sight and sign of Starbucks or McDonald. Not that I am against the highly popular chains, but i would prefer to travel to places where authenticity is still thick. Otherwise, what is the point of travelling if all is same as anywhere else in the world?

However, I realize it is too high standard. There are very few places in the world that are still untouched by globalization. Now I challenge you to try find those places! ;)
