I would try to do something that you normally would not do. I know that doesn't narrow it down but you should take advantage of traveling somewhere you wouldn't pick in the future for a "vacation." Good luck!
Ali
go to morocco!

I would pick Slovenia, Croatia, and Serbia mainly because they are countries that are not the norm for visiting; plus my dad's best friend is Serbian and him and his family are fun.
Otherwise, Morocco.
I vote for making and creating art (ceramics?) in Umbria. Put all that great artistic talent to good use! Plus, you might get the chance to eat at Medio Evo in Assisi, it's incredible!

Selfishly, DC would be great. Could meet at Ben's Chili Bowl.
Namibia would be another continent (Africa? or am I thinking of someplce else) Same for Morocco.
My actual vote would be for Greece/Turkey, although I kind of hope DC wins.
