I finally picked up a passport for myself. (Well, I sent in the application about five weeks ago, and just got it last week.) Now I just need to have someplace to go, and the money to get there. And knowing why it costs $80 for an ID attached to a notepad would be nice, too.
Anyway, I'm thinking the first place I'd want to go would be someplace English-speaking, like the UK or Australia. From there I'll branch out to places where I can mangle the local language enough to squeak out a barely-intelligible "do you speak English?"
Luckily for me, almost all Western European countries refer to the nectar of the gods as "beer." Nice to see we can all agree on the important things.
