The first independent travel I ever did was to go and see a volcano erupting. There's not many more spectacular things you can see than tonnes of molten rock being hurled into the air, and there are places in the world where you can sit in geothermally heated water while watching. Here's some photos I've taken from volcanic regions around the world.
