Whore.
I've only been to 2, although I have been to Chile, just not those places listed.

Real jelly.
Most of mine were the American ones a la Nola & Vegas as examples but I was fortunate enough to make a trip into Spain (Barcelona in particular), Cairo, Egypt (Where my Aunt is from), Jerusalem, Italy (My other Aunt lived there for 10 years), Ireland & Greece ... Also have been into England & Scotland as well.
I love traveling more than anything in this world.

I need to travel more. 
I got to go to Chile to teach cheer camps, and it was pretty awesome. I would love to have your list.

6 (although I don't remember actually looking at the sunrise in Santorini, I know I was there for one. Just didn't think to look)

I've done 2, but I'm only 21.

Yeah I classified as if I had been there or not been there ... not so much if I did exactly what it said to do when there.

Been to the Strip in Vegas and NOLA during Mardi Gras. Also toured Chicago, but by bus, not boat.
Lived in Greece--I'd have to say seeing the Parthenon or Mount Olympus with your own eyes trumps a sunset over the Mediterranean.
Also been to Italy and Germany, but didn't do the specific activities listed.
ETA: Left off that I've been to Istanbul's Grand Bazaar. That place is fricking nuts, let me tell you

I completely agree. I'm one who is much more impressed with what man has built over the years than what nature has.

i don't know how you could say that after seeing the grand canyon.
But some of man's great feats definitely trump a sunset.

Man didn't build Olympus, but I get what you're trying to say
You could see the mountain from the front porch of my family's house over there in Larisa, Greece. That thing is majestic to look at
And there's really no picture I've seen that does justice to the scale of the Parthenon. That thing is huge and still impressive even though the Ottomans trashed it. Get up close and you can see how the Greeks built parts of it to purposefully lean, so that the building appeared to be composed of straight lines when viewed from a distance. Freaking incredible

I've done 6, Really want to go to Chile, but you'll never see my arse on a train in Russia.
The cool thing about traveling is there's SO much to see right here in the States and it can be done on a small budget if you choose to do so.

Why I love America ...
I have somewhat come to terms I won't be able to go to all the places overseas that I'd want to but I will be able to see most of the stuff in America if I choose to ... and even there would be so much else to see.
But I will have to say I prefer European, Classical & Ancient History to ours though. To me it's just more rich & intriguing. But doesn't mean I value ours any less it's just not as captivating to me. Fwiw

There are just some truly amazing places built by humans. It's just more impressive that a set of hands can build it as opposed to thousands of years of natural processes.
