A really long time ago, there was a big battle at a city(-state) called Troy. If you were geographically inclined, you might be interested to know that it is in modern day Turkey, but I digress. The war started over a woman, who apparently was the most beautiful in the world. Courtesy of Aphrodite. The war lasted for around a decade. At the end, Odysseus tricked the trojans with the Trojan horse. Needless to say, this trick cost Troy everything.
My ideal DREAM journey would be across World War II Europe. Not affiliated with a particular faction, just to fly/drive all over the place and see all the vehicles, (TANKS!TANKS!TANKS!) airplanes, and big battles. I would most like to see the battle of Prokarovka, the biggest tank battle in history. Granted, it was one of the most deadly battles, but that adds to the history of the event, making it harder to forget.

Most people write about how they want to travel the world and sightsee, but your journey has a specific purpose and shows something that you are passionate about. The visual aid and unique syntax (crossing words out instead of erasing them) makes for an interesting read. Nice work!
