Where in the world?

It has been a long and boring Easter weekend.  I wanted to blog about something, but nothing is going on at all.  So, I decided to rank my preferences of all posts worldwide.  I used this website for a list of all the diplomatic posts.  This is a fluid ranking and is done in a relatively short amount of time.  I have ignored the fact that I need to serve in a language post for my next tour.  (I ignored all of the special missions, such as UNESCO or OECD, except the UN).  Overall, Belmopan would fall around the 50s or so for a post.

A bit about the list - the bottom ten was about as hard to put together as the top 10.  A few places like Kabul and Baghdad were sent up the list because of the overtime possibilities, as well as the fact that they are usually only one year posts.

The top 60 or so are the places I'd really like to go.  The next cut off is around 100, I'd still be excited to go to these places but not jumping over the moon.  The 'I don't want to go to this place' list starts at 157 and below.  That is not to say these places don't have redeeming values, but they won't be making the top of any list I turn in.

Several decent places, in Central and Latin America, were down graded simply because I will have spent the last two years in Belize.  I really don't want to spend the next two years in another central American post.

Finally, there are a lot of places, especially in Africa, that I know little to nothing about.  I only know that much of Western Africa is crowded and some of the places are bad.  So, there may be gems in Africa and central Asia that I don't recognize at this time.
