If your world's feeling a bit too routine lately, stay with us and we'll take you to some places you've probably never been.

On today's travel with Rick Steeves, I talk with author Patricia Schultz, who's identified a thousand places we should each see in our lifetime.

She reveals a few of her favorites.

The sound of the gongs, the smell of the incense, the sound of the children laughing and the

old people who come and exchange news, it's lovely.

Yvonne Wakefield shares what it's like to teach art to women in Kuwait.

It's like the diamond in the rough.

It's retained a lot of its cultural heritage and the architecture there is

you know out of this world.

And discover a part of Germany free of Laderhosen and other Bavarian cliches, but with its

own unique treats.

Northern Germany is flat, lots of agriculture,

think seafaring, very good bicycling, lakes.

We're going to some new places.

It's travel with Rick Steves. In a bit, we'll look

into the highlights of overlooked Northern Germany, and an American describes the unexpected

challenges she faced and overcame while teaching art to women in the traditional Arabic culture of Kuwait.

Patricia Schultz has recently revised her bestseller a thousand places to see before you die.

She joins us now to update our global bucket lists and tell us about some of her latest favorites

around the world.

Patricia, thanks for joining us.

Thank you, Rick.
