Days 1-14: visit all the islands of Hawaii and several of the hiking trails.
Day 15: establish a residency there (it can't be perfect if I have to leave, now can it?)
It is a pipe dream for now, but if I ever win the powerball....
An alternative to Hawaii would be Thailand. Much cheaper. If you think Miami has a tropical climate (which it does), then Thailand is like Miami's summer even in what would be the winter. There is a reason much of our coconut water produced in the world is from Thailand. Coconuts grow in Florida, but are not native. I love seeing coconut palms grow in their natural habitat. Have done enough cruises. I like the jungle type of tropical more than the island type(btw, Hawaii has both so that is why I put it first). Thailand is one place where I can feel the tropical humidity just from a photograph.
Also, Borneo. Would love to see some wild Orangutans in a jungle.
Id also like to check out Manaus and the Amazon rainforest. Tropical rainforest is beautiful. Wish I could live there in Brazil.
Singapore is not on the list. Too many laws...can't even chew gum there.
Don't really have any desire to go to northern locations. The cold reduces biodiversity and one hectare of tropical jungle contains more species than all of Europe.I will probably never travel to the UK in particular. Least interesting western European country in my opinion (sorry).
And since we are dreaming, may as well go big. How about visiting a super-Earth with a globally warm tropical(subtropical at poles) climate. I wonder what the equivalent of palm trees and jungle would be on a planet more suited than our own for life. Would be interesting to see the weather too
