Travel Roster - I
I have developed for myself a travel roster intended to continuously track the travel I undertake in whatever years are left in the aberration defined as my life. The longer this aberration aberrates, this roster would be appended and refined. In case the aberration is indeed that flash-in-the-pan :-) well at least you all would reckon I held Megasthenic ambitions.
Travel Roster - I as on this day, this time has two themes - Countries and Wonders of the Ancient World. My objective for each theme has been articulated below
Theme 1: "I want to visit 100 countries in the world"
Countries Covered: UAE, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Egypt
% Target Achievement: 4%
Remark: For a person who first sat in a airplane only when he was 24, 4% is not bad at all!
Theme 2: "I want to visit the seven wonders of the ancient world"
1. Great Pyramid of Giza (completed)
2. Hanging Gardens of Babylon
3. Statue of Zeus at Olympia
4. Temple of Artemis at Ephesus
5. Mausoleum of Maussollos at Halicarnassus
6. Colossus of Rhodes
7. Lighthouse of Alexandria
Remark: Nah! If you know me well, you would understand why not the medieval or modern world:-)

Along similar lines... my travel plans include visiting every state in the US of A.(Illinois,North Carolina,California are done) Once that's done, there definitely are more places to go!
thats cool..well i want to visit Alaska for sure...and then all eastern states of India on bicycle. Semantica has been updated. Keep a eye there.
i dont think the hanging gardens of babylon exist anymore. Do they?
liked your goal-setting :)
i think you should include India in ou list of countries covered.
wow, I liked ur travel roster and the 4% you have covered :)
way to go!!
lemme see, guess i have covered three out of seven continents.... not good!
and heyy .... all the best!
:)
i am sure u'll make it to each one of them......
and i dont think the lighthouse exists either.....unless u meant the ruins!!!! :)
666...i have only been to two countries..but travelled reasonably extensively in both...India of course at leisure over the 27 odd revolutions that this rock took aroung the sun since i was born..and Indonesia these last two months, and yes have been to more parts of indonesia than even most locals ( the downside is i haven't yet been to bali, and the locals are smart enough to ensure they've been there atleast)..but the thing i'm ottin this comment here is that recently i was in a spot of immigration bother (nothing major just a few hours of boring wait at the nearby immigration office) at a place called Muara Enim..and i couldn't help thinking that thats an interesting enough combination of rough consonants, almost egyptian in its sound (especially as the "R" is rasped with a half sibilant)and well, its close enough to a Hat shaped peak called Bukit Selero and a dormant volcano called Gunung Dempo that now nestle lush green acres of tea plantation and as far as i can tell from my travels across indonesia this is one of the most beautiful places in the world..might want to add that to your list of places to visit maybe :D
have you started travelling, or just been too busy to blog?
