North - Pond Inlet, Canada (An artificial island off the northern coast of Alaska being a close second).
South - The touristy spot in Key West, Florida. :/

Edit: I forgot about Hawaii, I think that beats Florida.

Hawaii does beat Florida.

Anyone been to Antarctica? 😀

I have put some serious thought into taking a job down there. I live in Alaska right now, and if I left here at the height of Winter to go there, basically it would be just like being here, weather-wise.
 
North - somewhere in alaska while flying to japan
South - Kenting National Park, Taiwan, 120o 45' East 21o 57' North

What kind of a job? :Q

Midnight sun. 😎
Polar nights. 🙁

I have been dealing with Alaskan Winters for most of my life. Antarctica wouldn't be that big of a step for me. 😛 The Winter with the darkness would suck, yes, but I am used to it. I'm crazy enough that they might even take me for the job, and I can change a car radiator outside at -73F. 😛

 
It's funny I've traveled a lot but am kind of weak in this regard.. Amsterdam (if that is farther north than Whistler) and Singapore.
