Catherine in Asia says:
It is probably no. 20 that will be most difficult but most interesting! Now the space tourism starts to come in several places around our earth... There will be journeys from Kiruna,, you may have to look at it,, but it is perhaps only the G force you get to experience....

Katarina in Asia, yes number 20 is definitely special!!! Tourism trips are on the G and apparently they were planned for 2012, but now they seem to be postponed to 2013...?

Yes, I read that list. Really fun with Dalarna!

Space gets a little tricky perhaps, but...
I would love to go to Antarctica...

I'll probably give up number 20 and I'm missing a place. On the list, I would probably bite on Jordan right now.

Camilla, I'm actually not that keen on space... can take it to Discovery.
😉
Annika, yes, it's a bit funny that they discovered Dalarna and Helsinki over there in America.

Znogge, Jordan sounds interesting! My colleague was there, and loved it!
