Japan, it's the first place outside the Philippines that motivated me to see the world. The picture of Mt. Fuji and the travel documentaries featuring the festivals all over Asia made me appreciate how small my world view is until I see what's out there.

Out of curiosity, what was the first place you traveled to? or what motivated you to travel? I know some would answer it's part of their job and they ended up loving it, or a friend introduced them to the habit, and most would just say they were driven for their wanderlust.
