Winter Vacation: Where should I Go?

[xidigow]

Come to mogadishu..it is 100% cheap good food, BOG OCEAN and ...you know the rest

[Shilka]

I don't think the current circumstances allow for tourists. Mogadishu is last on my list, tied with Kabul, Baghdad, and Tijuana.

I was thinking something closer to my home.

I'm telling U go to Galinsoor. If I liked it you would too. Next vacation back home is explore my grandma's hometown of JigJiga. Its a vacation and a learning experience all in one package.

[Shilka]

A small town in Somalia is the last spot on my list. In Somalia, I would be most interested in the larger cities. Especially Hargeisa, Boosaaso, Berbera, and the livestock market in Galkaayu. I would love to visit Kismayu and the surrounding Bajuuni islands once peace is established in the South.

Mombasa

[SummerRain]

U would be suprised in what you find in rural Somalia. Life is simple and mighty fulfiling. Makes you want to marry under a tree and settle down in a mud house. Yaa Salaam.

And if the crime in Kenya disturbs you

Dar Es Salam then

[Shilka]

In that case, then I will settle, Ismahan. I just hope that Galinsoor is a serene sort of small town, not an impoverished and abandoned ghost town, because I have seen those. Insha Allah, it will meet my standards.

Fah123, the one thing that attracts me to Mombasa is the Islamic presence in the city, and the nearby port, also the fact that the areas surrounding Mombasa are literally islands within Kenya itself. Very beautiful and interesting landscape.

Cabo. Very nice vacation spot and not very far.

[reena]

Cali is always nice. Even though You said it is not on your list South America is the only place I can think of that is warm, has nice beaches, and is cheap.

[gurey25]

supposedly you are in brazil.

now if you want to go somewhere warm during winter, head south.

i think the southern hemisphere is in thier summer during the winter.

Australia, south africa, southern chile etc etc

phuket thailand is good during winter too, a bit rainy but still sunny days

[Shilka]

I wonder why the middle east has yet not been mentioned. Turkey would be beautiful this time of year, counting on a warm winter season.
