Exotic Holiday destinations

For the past 2 years I see a trend amongst my friends. They are not interested in the usual holiday destinations anymore. They begin to avoid places like Bangkok, Hong Kong, Australia, USA or even China. So where are they heading to these days?

Iceland is a very popular destination now. Out of 10 friends, 6 has gone there ! Surprising right? Not really. Singaporeans are a well travelled bunch. We do have a bit of money, & we have been to all the neighbouring countries twice over. So to proceed to more exotic destinations seem almost natural.

Beautiful right?
Now what about myself you might ask. Haha.... Me in Iceland ? That'll be like a NEVER !!! I don't see the fascination about the Northern Lights. True they are beautiful, but seeing the lights online is better right? What if you are there, you couldn't  catch it? It's known to happen. And it's like super freezing. Plus many of my friends who were armed with only a hp, couldn't even capture the beautiful lights. It seems you'll need a camera , probably with the right speed as well. Sigh... that'll be too much trouble for me. And have you seen the terrain? It's kinda barren & not as pretty as said, New Zealand ....lol....
