It'll be great one...in case you are wondering.

Have any of you been to any of the listed 100? If so, how was it? What did you like and what did you not like?

The Continent of Natural Beauty: South America




It's always been a dream of mine to go to South America; Rio de Janiero in Brazil, Machu Picchu in Peru, the city of Santiago in Chile and Patagonia in Argentina. I'm hoping next fall (Fall 2013) I can make the trip to Rio de Janiero, Brazil and then the other places will have to come over the next few years. These places are definitely on my bucketlist. I mean gorgeous tan-skinned boys, beautiful beaches and mountains, great food and it's a new place to explore. Sounds like heaven on Earth. Take me there, I've been dreaming of you South America. Any South American readers? Tell me about your continent, I'm very interested!
