Reply to comment by vnevner in I want to see the Andromeda Galaxy with my naked eye. I can't, I have a method of finding it using Cassiopeia and a field to walk out on to get away from the lights. by vnevner

That is a link to a list of all of the Dark sky preserves worldwide.

Your age doesnt have to be a limiting factor. Sit down with your dad and pull up this list and see if you guys can plan to visit one. They are all over the world it may just be a few hour drive.

I didn't see the stars with my eyes until I was 29. It is an extremely moving experience. Good luck!

I can see stars but to get away from cities I kinda need a car. Thanks for the link btw!
