Lori / Canada
speaker Oh, right now, the adventure I am planning is an extensive trip in Southeast Asia. I've always dreamed of going to Angor Wat, so I want to see that place before it's been overrun with too many tourists.
Chris / England
speaker Well, I always said that I wanted to try parachute jumping, and I had the chance when I was in high school to do that but my dad stopped me going in the end because he said ... well, I'm quite a big guy - quite heavy ... and so, he was like, "Well, if you want to do it, then you really should lose a bit of weight because, you know, you're gonna fall and you're gonna shatter 1 your legs" so he was very supportive of my dream, so in the future I think I'd like to try that, but maybe I should lose some weight.
Aki / Japan
speaker I want to go to Antartica and maybe go on a dog sleigh. I don't like the cold weather, but I want to experience that sleigh and actually I want to go on the dog sleigh for my honeymoon 2 and experience Antartica with my husband.
Amir / Iran
speaker I would like to do skydiving, yeah. Skydiving, because I have acrophobia 3. This would be the biggest adventure I could can take. Just falling from the airplane for a few minutes. You know, now silence there. It would be strengthening me from inside, doing this adventure.
Helen / Canada
speaker Well, I would really like to go cycling somewhere like Nepal or something like that, where there's lots of rugged 4 mountains and beautiful scenery. I don't think I'm in shape enough to do it just now but maybe some time in the future, when I have more time to work out and stuff.
