I've done a little bit of travelling in my days and I find that I like visiting the big cities in different country's and seeing what they have etc...

I've been fortunate enough to see a few places in my day.

Of all the places my favorite one was Rio de Janeiro in Brazil. Not for the faint of heart, but a really cool place. I was there for just over a week a few years back, and of course part of that was during the great Brazillian version of carnival. I'm sure the atmosphere at the time clouds my opinion, but I loved the sights and scenery, the beaches, and just the general vibe of the city. If you have a bit of experience travelling and can get around in a place where you don't need everyone to speak English, I reccommend it. I would also reccommend to stick to an area like Ipanema as your base as it's a much safer part of the city, but during busier times of the day you can go to most of the area's and it's relatively safe.

What are some other great cities that CP'ers have been to?
