Have you been to a place no one else has been to?

I'll start. The idea is you name the place and a fellow MNer has to say if they've been there. However, you don't have to wait until you've been somewhere to post. Post your places and you'll meet the MNers who've been there. You can post 1-3 places (random numbers).

I've been to:

Rwanda
The Whisundays
Cathedral Grove (Vancouver Island)

Should say, you win if no one has been there.

No cheating. And I won't be checking because admin is not my specialty.

Show quote history

They're just little villages in Wales near to where I grew up, and Cleethorpes is a typical seaside town. All three could do with some investment, but they each have their own positive attributes.

Unfortunately yes…about 6 years ago I had a client who was friends with him. We swung by his estate and I hated the whole thing.
