This natural light show is something I'd love to view, and hopefully soon. Apparently the auroral activities peaks every 11 years, with the next time being 2013! So hopefully, an awesome thing I can do fairly soon in is view the Aurora Borealis, also known as the Northern lights.
After some research, I've the discovered the best place to view this natural phenomena are the Northwestern part of Canada; particularly Nunavut, Yukon and Northwest Territories. After learning the science between these lights in several of my school classes, it would be nice to actually view the Northern Lights up close and in person.
Awesome Things to Do in the Near Future :D

7. Crystal Ice Cave: Skaftafell, Iceland
As a person who loves exploring, the renowned Crystal Ice Cave in Iceland are a perfect destination! Almost all the air has been pressed out this glacier turning the ice into a beautiful blue shade, much resembling crystal. One awesome thing I would love to do in the near future is visit the caves and explore them.

5. Visit Japan!!
From when I was young and watched anime, I have always wanted to visit Japan. As I grew up and started enjoying other aspects of the culture (i.e. music, food), my desire to go to Japan increased even more. One of the awesome things I want to do in the near future (hopefully after I graduate) is visit Japan and immerse myself in the various cultural and social aspects this country has to offer.
When I visit Japan, I would definitely start my vacation in the nation capital of Tokyo! After this I would move to other cities, most notably Osaka, Kyoto and Hokkaido. There are several sites and activities I would love to experience including eating a traditional Japanese meal, dressing up in kimonos, viewing the capsule hotels, maid cafes and hot springs. Though, the most prominent thing on my to do list would be to eat....eat A LOT. I absolutely love sushi, and being in Japan where I have access to authentic Japanese food, would be amazing. On this trip there's no doubt I'd come back at least 10lbs heavier then when I left, but it would be worth t to partake in 'real' sushi, mochi, pork buns, bubble tea....the list goes on!

4. Pamukkale Hot Springs, Turkey
After doing a project on Turkish culture for my international business class in high school, I discovered the beautiful Pamukkale Hot Springs in Turkey. These natural springs, also known as the "cotton castle" are famous for the unique way they formed, due to the flowing water. One of the awesome things I would love to do in the near future is visit this site and swim in one of the hot springs that cascade over the mountain.
The Pamukkale were formed when a high concentration of calcium bicarbonate flowed over the edge of a cliff and then hardened creating solid calcium deposits. Not only are the waters warm and perfect for relaxing in, they are also said to have healing qualities. I think this would make a great vacation, not only do these hot springs look enchanting but visiting Turkey would also be a great cultural experience!
