my top 10 are....
1. Rarotonga
2. Beijing
3. Greek Islands
4. Paris
5. Venice
6. Honolulu
7. Chang Mai
8. Brazil
9. South Africa
10.Tokyo
Some places I didnt put the city name cos I didnt know which city to go to, I just know I want to go to that country! |

Yeah, thats how I was choosing as well.. plus if its free airfare and free hotels.. I chose some damn expensive cities like Tokyo (already been there, but free hotel for 10 days and it would be real fun). |

I'll answer this post posing as one of my university students (with whom I posed a similar question and got similar results).
1) Seoul
2) Pusan
3) Jeju City
4) Dok-do City (There will be a city there soon-don't worry)
5) Tajeon
6) Taegu
7) Kyeongju
Jeonju (for the bibimbap, yo!!)
9) Kwangju *
10) Everland (not really a city, but...)*
* For those students who have family abroad, 9 and 10 are Los Angeles and Chicago respectively. |
