Picturesque. That was a new word to Rincewind the wizard. It was one of a number he had picked up since leaving the charred ruins of Ankh-Morpork. Quaint was another one. Picturesque meant - he decided after careful observation of the scenery that inspired Twoflower to use the word - that the landscape was horribly precipitous. Quaint, when used to describe the occasional village through which they passed, meant fever-ridden and tumbledown.

Twoflower was a tourist, the first ever seen on the discworld. Tourist, Rincewind had decided, meant ‘idiot’.

Can't get weirder than Jaywick! It looks like it should be in Afghanistan or Iraq during a war.

It’s was freezing so I went to the shop to buy gloves but none of them fit. Apparently they only sell 6 fingered gloves on Wearside

Alicante, Spain. (Sometimes in Wales)

".. has anybody been to the more unusual"

I spent a week on holiday in Beirut once. A really friendly, beautiful place at the time. People thought I was crazy going to Beirut, but I was living in Kabul at the time!

Coventry

A few less salubrious and perilous locations in the Middle East and Africa. Unfortunately not holiday, but work. But travel is a great education and I've seen humanity at its darkest but also its best. So definitely wouldn't change it. After all I chose that career path to travel and find adventure and that I got.
