Since I am at home these days, I thought I’d get a head-start on planning our 2016 and 2017 holidays! The June holidays are just about a month away and we are considering a number of options to travel regionally.
I came across this list from TripAdvisor and this seems to be a good starting point for anyone wanting to travel around Asia. Here are the top 25 Asian destinations of 2016. Of these, I’ve been to roughly half this list. I now need to start looking at the others, but I do know there will be some I won’t go to which may be overrun with backpackers and are famous for activities I am not interested in.
The top 25 Asian destinations are:
- Siam Reap, Cambodia
- Hanoi, Vietnam
- Ubud, Bali, Indonesia
- Bangkok, Thailand
- Hong Kong, China SAR
- Tokyo, Japan

This list has seriously awakened the travel wanderlust in me, and I need to start planning for trips out of this region. We have pending trips to meet family to both Europe and North America and I need to start saving up for these trips. For a family of four adults, this will be serious $$, especially flights!
OK, gotta start looking for jobs now!
