- Kissing a Kangaroo, Australia
Anyone else now secretly singing the childhood playground chant to themselves?? Anyway, I can't promise that it wasn't in fact wallaby, but for all intents and purposes, I kissed a kangaroo, aged 3, somewhere down under. It's a vague memory, but I think it's awesome! - Posing with a man in a gorilla suit, Empire State Building
Corny? Touristy? Who cares?! I love the fact that this guy was there at the top of the Empire State Building, pretending to be King Kong. AND! we beat the queue. Oh yeah. - Stupid videos, the Hermitage
The Hermitage is beautiful, it really is. It's also huge. I love a bit of culture. I was supposed to be documenting the trip, which I was. It started off as getting people saying something about whatever they were looking at and ended with my friend accusing the subject of a portrait of being on her period. - Multiple people on a scooter, Anywhere in Asia
Anything less than 4 is unimpressive. Convincing a taxi to take 3 of you is a feat worthy of endless boasting. Sadly, remains unaccomplished for me.
- Becoming a tourist attraction in your own right, The Great Wall
It sounds impossible, being more of an attraction than one of the 7 wonders. It's not. Just turn up with Westerners en masse and more 'local' tourists will be taking more pictures of you than the wall, either as sneakily as possible or simply by walking up to you and posing next to you. - Oktoberfest, Munich
It's legendary. It's more than just an excuse to drink beer all day. It's a chance to wear traditional dress, to stand on tables, stomp, pretend you know the German lyrics to the song everyone is belting out. And of course drink beer all day.
