    What's the point? If it's a work of art, you can stay home and do that. I have seen most of the "interesting" natural sites in the US (not Alaska). It's entirely a function of finding the interests you have within yourself...not externally. You can visit travelogues for that

They are not cheap but are e collect reliable units. I have used them to power my house during power outages. They ran the induction stove, well pump and AC units with no problem. They have symmetrical waves and power iPad, Computers and other electonics.
