[GAME] Shiritori: travel destinations

351869_GettyImages-180409764_ForYou.jpeg

 

Hello everyone,

 

I would like to propose to you a game a little bit different from the ones we usually prepare, inspired by a Japanese word game: Shiritori. In turn, each of you will post one  word and each word must start with the last syllable of the word before it.

 

In order to keep the topic organised and allow for a bit of escapism, let’s only use words corresponding to destinations, e.g. countries, cities, regions, mountains, lakes, monuments.

 

 Here is an example to demonstrate this:

 

Doncaster > Donnington

 

Now it's up to you to take the next step!

 

Wishing you all a lovely week ahead 🙂

Bahahahaha. Sounds like a plan, cos my word is too hard. I have one idea that is borderline.  There’s probably somewhere in China that begins with gao

I think we should change Versailles to Vermont. It’ll be much easier to get the next place.

@Pat271 I think we could continue from Vermont. Let's see... 🤔

 

Vermont -> Montpellier

But Montpelier is in Vermont - it's the capital of the state - so you can't really leave Vermont to go to Montpelier 😂😂😂. But you can go from Vermont to Montana!

 

Or Vermont - Montreal - Alabama...

@Pat271 What is wrong with Silesia? 

@Mike-And-Jane0  It doesn’t start with the last syllable of the previous word, which @Sarah977 already pointed out.

Silesia - Siargao (phillipines).  (spelling, not pronunciation)

@Quincy  I don't understand how Doncaster -> Donnington works if you use the last syllable of the previous word to start the new word.  Shouldn't it be more like Doncaster -> Terre Haute?
