    @pui: I trained and was, but went in a different direction for my MS. I work in the industry, though. I kinda miss my shovel bum days.

    @pui: It's cool, plus the people involved are generally awesome as well. It is quite the little subculture.

    Maldives, probably. I've been almost everywhere in Asia but I think Maldives was the most exotic and my favorite.

    Africa, and within that, either Zambia or South Africa. Both were veeeery different from anywhere we've ever been before!

    Ummm exotic? Let's see, India, Peru, Brazil, Ecuador, Costa Rica, Australia, Panama? Hawaii, Alaska, St. Lucia.. hmm. I don't know which of those is most exotic.. I was in Brazil for a year though so hit some pretty random parts of the country. Oh oh i'll say the San Blas islands in Panama. That was middle of absolutely nowhere.

    Hmm. Maybe Turkey/Cyprus or Oman/Dubai?

    Jamaica is probably the most exotic, or the Bahamas...both very commercialized,but Jamaica you had to drive through the villages to get to the resort.

    Egypt, Ivory Coast, Senegal, Ghana, The Gambia

    Marrakech, probably. Cartagena (at least the part we went to) was much less exotic than we imagined it to be!

    @mynoahbear: Would love to go to the Maldives! I'm guessing it's as amazing as I imagine it to be?

    Exotic, I'm not sure which would define it best but - Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, Cambodia, Indonesia, Australia? Or Mexico, Dominican Republic? I want to go absolutely everywhere! I think the world has so much to teach. It's my dream to be able to take our children to many different parts of the world.

    Hmm...maybe the summer I lived in Zimbabwe? Or the northern-most state of India?

    I hope to visit my DHs country at some point, and it's pretty exotic, I guess. We were going to go this summer for a long, late honeymoon, but now with LO on the way, we have to wait *sniff*

    Budapest, Hungary...I've been a lot of places in Europe and the Caribbean, too, but I think Budapest is probably the most exotic.

    I spent a year in Ecuador when I was really, really young (16), and have travelled a little, but I maintain that the most exotic was living in the Canadian Arctic in the 80s. That was when long distance was crazy expensive and flights cost twice as much (in today's dollars) as they do now. I-so-lated.

    Probably rural Jamaica. It's the only place where I've been to somewhere ungooglable.

    @lemondrop: OOOOH! I'm jealous! I wanted to go there so bad!!!

    I think there's a tie between Aruba and Santorini, Greece.

    @lolabee,@orvis18: it's an incredible place. It's kind of a pain to get to, even coming from Asia, it was kind of hard. We went from tokyo to Singapore to Male to another smaller island all by planes, then we had to take a boat to the resort, which is on it's own island. But once you're there, the trip is so worth it. I want to go again but am a little worried about how LO will be going and coming.

    @BKCaribBaby: & @T-Mom: we had our honeymoon in Bali & Singapore last year...those sunset dinners on Jimbaran Bay & the bicycle rides through Ubud - it was literally heaven on earth! And singapore still, hands down, has the best food we've ever eaten in the world.

    @sweetchic: one of my favorite trips was when me & my best friend went to Buenos Aires & Rio for 2 1/2 weeks. the sunsets on Ipanema were absolutely dazzling! and the FOOD and WINE in buenos aires....i still dream of going back!

    other favorite exotic adventures - japan (tokyo & the surrounding areas - we climbed mt. fuji!) & the philippines (but i don't think it really counts, since my family is from there!)
