I would like to take a two month vacation. I live on the east coast of America. It would start in the early fall and my wife and I would drive out to the west coast on the northern route, down the west coast and back along the southern route. There would be no set agenda. If we saw something we liked we would stop. If we didn't, we would just keep going. Personally I think this would be exciting and the trip of a lifetime. I definitely need to retire first.

Answer 2

Mel, about three years ago, I was commissioned by a disaster relief program and traveled to Haiti to provide housing repairs, along with medical aid. At one point during the operation, we were told to go and scrub an orphanage from top to bottom. Of course, while there, the local Haitian children were intrigued by this "boy who's hair his on fire" (my hair is red). Thus, I made many friends among the children.

That was our last job we completed during our time there. As we loaded our belongings onto the bus, a small Haitian child named Jumi approached me. I believe he told me he was seven years old. He tugged on my shirt to get my attention since I was taller than him by a considerable amount. I got down on my knees, looked into his eyes, and let him know I was listening. In a mixture of broken English and Haitian Creole, he asked me to promise that I'd come back. In extremely broken Haitian Creole, I vowed that I would.

I have not been back to the orphanage since this encounter, and it's been eating at me since we landed in the United States. Before I meet my maker, seeing Jumi one last time would mean the world to me, and it would certainly mean the world to him. Plus, that little man still has my sunglasses. :)

Answer 3

This is going to sound silly and obvious , but I'd want to spend a day with all of the lads from Westlife. My reason? Because I am accomplishing slowly all the things I set out to achieve on this journey called 'Life" , now of course some achievements take longer than others.

But I'd meet Westlife because right now it seems the only infeasible thing that can ever happen. Passing my exams , saving the world , helping Orphans are all things I can and will do now, in my days of youth (or not if I die) , but I am free to do all those things. Meeting Westlife seems to be the only thing I am unsure that will ever happen. Why? Because with my hectic life and their busy schedule it doesn't seem so possible. So if It could be on my death wishlist then that would be great!

Also another thing would be to change someone's world, make a difference to someone. It doesn't have to be charity , it can be anything from putting a smile on someone who is forever sad or giving a helping hand to someone that makes a massive difference.
