    I've been to Japan but have never been to France (or any of Europe), so that's next on my list.

    As an art history student, I think my first choice would have to be Italy. There's just so much incredible art there!

    Canada! Though I've traveled to many places throughout the world, I've never been to our neighbor north! The Olympics have inspired me to plan a trip!!

    That's funny, because the country i would love to visit is Japan. Because of the art of course, which is totally different than european. And because in Poland, where I live ,everything is happening rather slowly, and there, in Japan, live is so fast, I would like to feel it, just for the moment. There is also another reason. My favourite film – "Lost in Translation".

    I used to say France, but given how much I've learned about architecture this year, I would have to say Italy. To see the classism and innovation in the architecture of Rome and eat such good food!
