Travel Photo Thread

Wife's family is from there originally, we're buying a villa there this winter for our vacation home. I absolutely love Sicily. Love it.

My dad's family is originally from Baucina, a small town in the mountains near Palermo. We went through there while on vacation, and pretty much everyone closed their doors and ran away from us. Seemed like they were just scared of tourists, it was actually kind of funny.

I would love to go back though, we drove from Palermo to Agrigento, then over to Catania (stayed in Taormina), and down to Siracusa for a day, during a week long trip. Went to Malta afterwards, which was pretty cool too, though pretty touristy.

Привет Пит! Привет из России!

Hello Pit! Greetings from Russia!

I enjoy these photopictures (except from Mr. Vadimivich, who has insulted me previously.)

И он должен заплатить. Ха!

Here are some of my favorite photopictures:

The beautiful wilds of Russia, summer:

Contrast. Just outside Moscow, winter (with Dmitry, he's so cute!). I call this photo "Snow":

Lovely Jakarta. The people are so welcoming. Some of the greatest folks on earth:

Thanks for the photopictures (except for Mr. Vadimivich...he can...идти ебать козла и лизать ее шары).

Husky, what do you do? You have amazing pictures from some pretty bitchin' places.

Haha, thanks. I've spent about half of the last 5 years backpacking around. When I'm not traveling I've been managing a hostel in the US. Though hopefully soon I'll be opening my own. But yeah, pretty much all my money goes to travelling. It's a pretty serious addiction.

That's awesome!
 
If there's one thing I've learned from this thread, it's that the Pit has some pretty adventurous people. There's some great pics in here.
 
I'll play.

I have pretty much resigned myself to living vicariously through Husky for the rest of our lives. On the plus side, it's awesome to be related to someone who has pretty much scoped out any destination you can think of when you are trying to plan family vacations.
