2006: The Year in Cities

Category: Life, Travels

It’s about that time of the year again… At the end of 2005 I joined in the internet meme of posting a list of all the cities I visited (one night or more) that year. Here’s what 2006 looked like for me:

Moscow, Russia*
Hurghada, Egypt
St. Petersburg, Russia
Kyiv, Ukraine
New York City, NY
Salt Lake City, UT*
Redding, CA
San Francisco, CA
Spijkenisse, Holland
Newcastle upon Tyne, England
Glasgow, Scotland

*’s denote multiple visits to the same city.

I have to admit that it doesn’t seem totally accurate in portraying the intrepid traveller that I am; my time in Belgium and Luxembourg were just multiple day-trips from a homebase in Spijkenisse, so they didn’t even make the list.

What’s your list look like this year? Feel free to post it in the comments or leave a link to your site if you’ve posted there.

Anya, Nick is a friend from Moscow (although he recently moved back to the States) who went to university around Redding. He still has friends in the area. In fact, he was the one who recommended us to go to Yak’s Coffee shop.
