Iceland is unreal, go go go! I really want to visit New York, and hopefully will within the next couple of years :)
Abadesi
@de The Big Apple is a must! One of my fave cities I enjoy it more every time I go.
Brendan Weinstein
@de @abadesi Come hang! NYC could use a Producthunt offsite weekend! @rrhoover ? Personally, I'm with you Dan - I Gotta get to Iceland.

@de The music, the books, I want to go to Iceland.
Sooraj Chandran
It was Iceland for me too. But I'm going in two weeks \m/ Next in the list would be Faroe Island, Peru and Norway.

I don't know why but Newcastle, UK. I've visited nearly every place on England but couldn't find a chance to see Newcastle upon tyne.
Abadesi
@yigitpinarbasi haha that's certainly a unique choice. How good at you at understanding UK regional accents?
Yiğit Pınarbaşı
@abadesi Yea right! Well, I'm not that bad actually, I can clearly say that I can mimic the English accent quite good, haha.

I've been to Iceland, and it's awesome. Would love to visit Tahiti
Abadesi
@dhruv_bhatia Ooh la la Tahiti! What would you do there?
Dhruv Bhatia
@abadesi I used to surf when I was much younger and in California. Now I'm just old and scared, and I would spend time like an old man on the beach :)
Dario
Borneo, the home of the Orangutan! 😊
Abadesi
@yapartase Yes! That would be so cool. I've seen it in many documentaries.
Abadesi
@yapartase Have you ever seen an orangutan IRL?
Dario
@abadesi Same. David Attenborough FTW! 😎 Haven't seen one IRL yet, and I don't fancy seeing one in captivity 🥺
Madison Taskett
@yapartase I've been, it's great! I thought Kuching was a fun little city and recommend visiting that area of Borneo and taking some day trips to longhouses and national parks (and of course the orangutans) :) People are really kind, food is amazing, and there's tons to see. Go!
MEKH
Are you preparing a new traveling services ? :) that would be awesome!
Abadesi
@aboubakr_mekhatria Product Hunt Travel Agency? We could be Kitty Kouriers. Maybe! haha
Phillip Martin
Lisbon is one on the bucket list! Heard its a great city. Should get over for a Web Summit one of these years
Michael Andreuzza
Rapa Nui....one day will happend
Abadesi
@michael_andreuzza I had to Google that to work it out - that would be epic. How long would it take you to travel there from where you are?
Michael Andreuzza
Hey @abadesi , according to distancefromto.com ( put 5h more because i need to get to Finland's main land, just because I live in the Aland islands and I need to take a 5h boat trip ) Distance from Chile to Finland is 13,800 kilometers. The air travel (bird fly) shortest distance between Chile and Finland is 13,800 km= 8,575 miles. If you travel with an airplane (which has average speed of 560 miles) from Chile to Finland, It takes 15.31 hours to arrive. And according to farecomprare.com Answer: The average Santiago, Chile to Easter Island flight time is 5 hours and 25 minutes. Question: How far is Easter Island from Santiago, Chile? Answer: The distance from Santiago, Chile to Easter Island is 3,749 kilometers (2,330 miles). I am also a surfer, like @dhruv_bhatia so i guess is our call
Artem Galenko
Japan is my dream)
Abadesi
@unrealartemg Great choice! I am thinking of starting a Japan savings pot so I can work my way up to making an epic trip there in the next few years. I have visited Tokyo before but back in 2012 and would love to see Kyoto and other places. Where are you most interested in going in Japan?
Phillip Martin
@unrealartemg great shout, was in Tokyo a couple of years ago visiting a friend who was working fro Adroll over there. Great, great city. Interestingly if I remember correctly its actually rude to tip there, maybe @abadesi can confirm or deny?? Also being Irish have an interest in the Rugby World Cup that is happening there in October.
Rahul
Iceland & Switzerland! 😻
Abadesi
@rahulmfg Niiice! Would you go to Switzerland in winter or summer?
Devdeep Bag
Haha sorry if this sounds like a cop-out, mine is also Iceland, in fact - I've been doing a bit of travel planning for next year. It's just really really far from where I am.
Abadesi
@devdeep_bag not a cop out - its an incredible place.
Douglas Souza
Montreal 🇨🇦😍
Abadesi
@8dsouza8 I've never been to Canada! Great suggestion. Have you been to other places in Canada?
Emile Patry Blenkiron
@8dsouza8 @abadesi Highly recommend Toronto if you're in tech! For landscapes, British Columbia and Alberta are my favourite regions.
Douglas Souza
@abadesi @emile_patry I lived in Toronto for a few months. What I most liked is the diversity there, I met a lot of people from different countries. Toronto is near Niagara Falls that is an amazing place to visit. I really recommend 😉
