If you won two free plane tickets, where would you go?

If I could I would visit not only the main tourist spots but those reminding me of home. I’ve heard they have some fjords in New Zealand and there must be small towns in Canada that somewhat similar to my experience living in the districts regions of Norway in the Northern parts. And I believe in experience different cultures within a country so I would like to meet Maori in New Zealand and First Nations and Inuit persons in Canada. I want to learn from my trip in all regions and every experience will be useful to my understanding of the World around us all. Maybe the Norwegians and Saami are considered kind of unusual or exotic in distant countries? If so that would also be interesting to me.

I would visit places in Canada and New Zealand. I’ve been living and visiting only Northern European countries in my current life. I have been wanting to see for myself how English speaking cultures are in real life experience. As may be known I’m from Norway and our culture is often more Scandinavian in nature, I’m heavily Finnish and Sámi influenced by heritage and family cultures. It would be quite different being a true outsider even though understand very well the language spoken.

And I often feel like I’m an outsider in Oslo, not about my autism spectrum condition or schizoaffective but like almost it’s a culture shock just being for a couple of hours on public transport like the especially the train or on the airport Gardermoen. We don’t have any trains in Troms county and Finnmark county. Some few places in Nordland county have trains, but otherwise none in Northern Norway.

I’m wondering how the natural environments are in these locations, I’m used to fjords and the coastal regions with the mountains and pine trees. I remember Northern Finland thick forests and oak trees in Agder county, exotic environment to us. I went outside today in the heat and sunshine it’s lovely but I’m happy to gwt home also, drinking pearberry type Battery energy drink in the Darkness of my firsr level ground apartment.

I hope to know more about our World out there and I would definitively visit if the tickets were free.. and the rest also for free!
