Q: - presuming you have savings/vacation time, etc.

A: Well, best case scenario where money isn't a problem. I'd take a European scurge. I'd go to London, Paris, Milan, Rome, Berlin, Amsterdam, Oslo, Moscow, then head home. SPend about 3-4 days in each spot, that'll be 4 weeks. The last two weeks should be spent with visiting family members. Now, on my salery, I'd just take Fridays off for the next 6-8 months. Or if you want to stay in North America...goto British Columbia. It is BEAUTIFUL up there! I highly recommend it. For hiking, fishing, or whatever. The people there are beautiful too.
