What cities do you want to visit?

Thanks to the internet I have made friends all over the globe at various points in my life, so naturally I want to visit the countries and cities they call home.

There’s also FoodTube, so I want to go visit specific places and restaurants purely for the amazing looking food.

Unfortunately, I don’t have the time or funding to go to all these places.

For a short list, though, here’s the top of my priority visit list:

• St. John’s, Newfoundland, Canada
• Austin and Dallas in Texas
• Atlanta and Savannah in Georgia
  
• Denver, Broomfield, Fort Collins, and Loveland in Colorado

After all that? No idea. There are several places I’d like to visit but I’m not prioritizing them.

St. John’s has a large group of friends I’ve made through Twitch that I have spent countless hours playing games with. I was actually planning a trip out there earlier in the year but funding didn’t pan out because of other expenses.

Austin and Dallas have a few friends that I’ve made in roughly the same time as the friends in Canada. My roommate and I actually met the one in Austin at TwitchCon in 2019, and although I’ve always wanted to visit Austin already, they moved to the area in the last couple of years so that’s all the more reason to go.

Atlanta and Savannah are in a similar situation to Austin and Dallas, but additionally there is DragonCon in Atlanta and I’ve always wanted to go to that.

Colorado is where I grew up, and I have friends that moved out there that I visit every couple of years or so if they don’t come back to South Dakota to visit family. There’s also great hiking, as well as beer and food that I want to have again.

Someday I’ll get out there again. Someday.
