Today I'm thinking about orchards and the Tian Shan region, which has the most amazing fruit forests. It is the place where all our apples originated. It's in my top ten places to visit, very near the top of the list, maybe at the very top. Other places on my list (sadly, more like tourist traps these days) have always been Easter Island (amongst other Pacific gems) and Teotihuacan. And India. And I need to take someone to the Maldives (before they disappear under water). But I wouldn't want to go to any of these places as a tourist.
