I feel pretty safe (pun intended) with this one but probably doesn't qualify.

Really? I doubt you will find someone who has been there?
How about bat shalosh army base?
anyone else been to Nablus?
Anyone been to Awarta?
Anyone been to אלעזר ואיתמר?
If that counts I've been to shuafat and many other arab villages.

Abilene, KS (Hicktown of all Hicktowns)

Dont be jealous
Spoken like someone who has never been to Boonville, MO
I think kashrus professionals almost have a monopoly on visiting many boring hicktowns with weird names. Growing up, after summer vacation everyone would be comparing notes. Florida, LA, the wealthy kids would add in Europe and Israel. The "cool" ones would add Seattle!! :) . For me? Ravenna, NE. Hu?

I knew there was another jewish owned cottage there, but didn't know they were on DDF, unless you use my wife's uncle's guest house.

Klaipėda, Lithuania.

May not count, as another DDF member been there (with me).

Old style port town next to the Baltic sea.

We conducted Purim for the little shul there.

While we didn't have a minyan, the few that were there treated us with much undeserved respect (we were Bochurim then)

Felt like back in the 1700's, when a more  learned person would pass through a shtettle, and people would ask them to share Torah etc...
Make stuff happen.

Lopud Island, Croatia

And lots of other places in Croatia, but I picked the place I thought was least likely someone else would go
Jury Duty: Nothing to do there but chill and write a TR. Kinda like the beach but missing the view and ocean breeze.
