Hello Jasper, You should really go to the Machu Picchu. Machu Picchu in the Andes Mountains is one of the worlds most renown ancient cities. You can choose between different kind of routes. A great adventure for sure! If you go, make sure you choose the ”difficult” route. You can go hiking or by bike. Its very crowded and if you go by bike you’ll be one of the first people who arrives at the top! A breathtaking view! Let me know! Greetz, Aline

Summit Ol Doinyo Lengai

Namtso lake in Tibet – strongly recommended. Altitude 4718 meter, it is the highest salt lake in the world. Its purity and solemnity are symbols of Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, and it is one of the three holy lakes in Tibet. The meaning, according to local , is ” The Sky lake”, you can imagine the crystal clear blue. You can also ride white yark near the lake, and join the prayer ( in Sep 2009, Kathy was leading a Belgium NGO project , I joined her there for 10 days. Celebrated Yoghurt Festival. Special memory.)

Hi Jasper, Hier nog een tip voor je bucket list!! Mountainbike downhill van Bolivia’s Death Road… Dit is een van de gevaarlijkste wegen ter wereld en is heel goed downhill te rijden met een mountainbike en schijnt echt geweldig mooi en indrukwekkend te zijn.. Oja, klein weetje, op deze weg vallen gemiddeld een kleine 300 doden per jaar dus je moet hier en daar wel een beetje uitkijken!! Dit avontuur staat bij mij ook nog erg hoog op mn bucket list dus als je hem gaat plannen, let me know!! En anders verwacht ik wel dat je weer eens langs komt in de Philippines om te kitesurfen 😉 Greetz, Maarten

Hey Jasper, cruise bij de Galapagos eilanden en een bezoekje aan Paaseiland mogen niet ontbreken…

en als je dan toch naar Mendoza in Argentinë gaat, moet je zorgen dat je er heet eerste weekend van Maart bent, tijdens de wijnfeesten, echt een aanrader.

ja Jappe, een marathon lopen! beetje beweging zal je goed doen!

You should definitely try to go to Taroko Gorge in Taiwan, you might rent a bike or even a canoe to go through this beautiful gorge.

Also you should try to go visit North Korea!

Visit Ice Hotel just for the pleasure of having easy access to Vodka.
Scotland – Look for the Loch ness monster (trust me its beautiful and Ill join you on this trip).

If you want to do the Amazon hiking this year u can count on me ;D I live here.. not for long tho ( I hope ahha).

– jump naked from the bridge into Krka lake
– get served unlimited gratis beer in one of Sanya’s posh clubs only because you are white skin:)

Your travel bucket list is a lot more exciting than mine 🙂 I’m a travel foodie, so something on my wish list would be having the opportunity to taste some of those amazing dishes prepared by contestants on Iron Chef America! But otherwise travel location wise, making a trip to Israel is still on my bucket list.

A couple suggestions:

Oregon Coast: Breathtaking…and as a Dutchman you would likely enjoy seeing this from a bike 😉

Rockies: Road trip from Waterton National Park to Montana on the road to the sun.

Vancouver Island: West Coast Trail.

These are items I need to repeat on my bucket list!

Amongst other travel I did a trip some years ago overland from Beijing to Islamabad, following the Silk Road. Not always comfortable travel, but some of the best travel I’ve done. I liked especially the part in Western China (Khotan, Kashgar, Karakoram) and Northern Pakistan’s NWFP (Hunza Valley, Gilgit, Chitral, Peshawar; Khyber). Very nice people, even though they seem to like Mr. Bin Laden. Also traveled Nepal to Lhasa overland: highly recommended.
Another suggestion would be Ethiopia, easily one of the most beautiful and interesting places I’ve ever seen, with lots of history and an amazing variety in landscapes.
For desert travel I can recommend Namibia (very nice), Libya (a bit unstable but actually much safer than people make it out to be) and the south of Morocco. North West Kenya is also interesting desert.
Make sure you put the great plains of East Africa on your list, Serengeti, the annual trek of wildebeest, etc.
Fishing tigerfish in Lake Cahora Bassa in Mozambique is also not to be missed: much better than anywhere else on the Zambezi.
If you can get a visa: Mukubal country in the deep south of Angola, the Pedras Negras and the Calandulo waterfalls in Malange province are well worth the effort.
If you want to see something odd, go to Yamoussoukro in Ivory Coast.
You are young, and these are places you can visit now. You can leave the more comfortable / easier to reach places for when you are old and infirm. Everyone does the Inca trail, Macchu Picchu and the salar de Uyuni.

Hi Jasper, come to Pakistan and you will be amazed by the Glaciers, Mountains, culture, history, hospitality and deserts!

Very adventurous list…What are you targets for 2014?
