Which countries have you visited

[MissHoneychurch]

and which ones do you wish to visit?

I visited:
Most of the European countries (OK, I have an advance by living in Germany)
Ukraine (yes, it is a European country as well, just not one that is normally on one's radar)
Iran (I would go there in a split second again)
USA (more than once)

I wanna visit
New Zealand
Canada
Egypt
Japan
Ireland
Also what I would love to do is hop on the TransSibirian train and take it from Berlin to Peking. The landscapes passing must be amazing

[RFKHumphreyObama]

1. Not as many as you but

Australia (well, technically I live here but I did visit before we moved here -Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Tasmania)
United Kingdom (England, Scotland, briefly Wales)
Czechoslovakia (OK, OK, in transit for six hours in an airport with nothing much to do). It was the year that communism collapsed in that country but unfortunately I was only eight so I wasn't paying attention
Cyprus (again in transit)
India (again in transit)
Brunei (small country but beautiful and highly underrated. Very cheap rates for 4 star hotels which actually come quite close to being luxury hotels despite only having a 4 star ratings)
Ireland (Dublin)
Canada (Toronto, Montreal, Ottawa, Quebec City, Niagara Falls Kitchener)
United States (California, Washington State,Maine, Minnesota, Indiana, Michigan, New York, Connecticut, Delaware, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Virginia, Washington DC, Maryland, New Jersey, Kentucky)
Thailand
Malaysia (Kuala Lumpur, Penang and Johor Bahru mainly)
Singapore (lived there for ten years)
Indonesia (Jakara and Bataam)

[MissHoneychurch]

2. That is quite a list

for some reasons Asia isn't really on my radar (except Japan). Never really was interested in visiting Thailand or the Philippines.

[sinkingfeeling]

48. A few, but want to do a lot more. Here's where I've been:

England
Ireland
Scotland
Canada
Mexico
Italy
Austria
Grenada
Belize
Guatemala
Peru
Ecuador
Costa Rica
Puerto Rico
All of the United States except Alaska

[yankeepants]

3. England for 6 months in college

Ireland 3x
Scotland
Wales
France
Italy
Greece
Canada

US of course. Born and raised.


I don't think about traveling too far these days: two dogs, two horses, three cats, hubby and lots of commitments. I'm thrilled to get on a plane and get away for 4 or 5 days to anywhere.

[MissHoneychurch]

4. Did you study in England?

Of course with all those animals traveling is hard. I understand that. And the U.S. has so much to offer, it is almost like visiting other countries.

[yankeepants]

6. I did

I was there through Binghamton University studying theater and writing. I was at the City University in London for classes but we went to performances from the National Theater to pub theater 3-4 nights a week and traveled all over the country every weekend. I was quite an experience.

You are right about the US. My last job had me traveling several times a year so I got to see a lot of it including Alaska. It's an amazing country. There are a lot of places I'd like to visit again.

[MissHoneychurch]

9. What an experience!!

I did internships in Glasgow, Scotland and in Savannah, GA. Also I was a nanny in Charlotte, NC. All three experiences made me stronger a person than I was before. Looking beyond one's own nose is for me one crucial point in understanding other cultures. A lot of the problems we have these days could be solved if everyone spends some time in a foreign country.

Places in the U.S. I still wanna see are the Dakotas (I wanna see the Plains) or Washington State. The nature is what fascinates me.

[6000eliot]

5. Canada, Mexico, Bermuda, Jamaica, France, and England.

Plus, I've been all over the USA.

[MissHoneychurch]

10. Cold and warm

now there is a combination :D

[Crystal Clarity]

7. The TransSiberian train would be alot of fun I bet

Actually I like your entire list. Where you've been and where you'd like to go.

I live not too far from the Canadian border, so I've been there many times. (Quebec only though). I also have been to Mexico and Israel/West Bank. On the Israel trip, I had a 3 hour layover in Brussels, Belgium so I suppose I can say I've 'been' to Europe, though I technically didn't 'visit'. Would have loved to, had I more time.

[MissHoneychurch]

11. I hope one day I will be able to take the trip

I love riding the train and having the time to see so many different landscapes and also be able to relax.

[hobbit709]

8. Austria, I was born there

Germany, Italy, Switzerland, Yugoslavia-when it was still called that, Liechtenstein, Greece, France, Netherlands, Great Britain,Turkey, the former USSR, Mexico, Jamaica.

[MissHoneychurch]

12. I haven't been to former Yugoslavia

but I heard the area at the Adria is supposed to be impressive.

Been to Liechtenstein more than once. I used to live at the Bodensee (Lake Constance) so we used to make day trips through Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Austria, Bavaria and Germany ;)

[Callalily]

13. Oh gosh . . . here's my list!

England
Germany
Austria
Swizerland
Lichtenstein (yes I'm counting it! :rofl:)
Canada

Islands listed here:
Barbados
St. Vincent (short stop)
Bequia
Grand Turk
Providenciales
St. Croix
Cozumel

[MissHoneychurch]

14. Yes, I remember your pics from the Islands

very jealous about it - still ... :rofl:

:hi: Callalily :hug: :loveya:

[Callalily]

17. I'm thinking in a past life

I must have lived in the Caribbean. I'm working my way through the islands. :rolf:

Already planned my 2011 vacation - scuba diving on Cayman Brac. Will also visit Grand Cayman that same trip.

Certainly something to keep me going through these upcoming COLD winter months.

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

[Skip Intro]

15. I've been investigating the beautiful state of South Carolina all my life.

more years than I'd like to mention...

[MissHoneychurch]

16. Except visiting Charleston

I only drove through SC on my way from Savannah, GA to Charlotte, NC. Never stopped or explored the State I have to admit.

[Skip Intro]

20. Charleston is beautiful. I live just outside Charleston, in Summerville.

I like Summerville better, less crime, or the appearance of less crime. But Charleston is the city. So much history and true beauty to behold. And a nightlife that I really can't see anyone topping, even with the 2am closing time. Then the beaches aren't far from there. Folly. Isle of Palms. This really is a great place to live, if you have to live in the South. Although, I'm not one to be hating on the Southern states. But I do have a hard time imagining a better place to be in the South. I really do like the area. I like my town. I like being only minutes from the famous Battery. I like the fact that Charleston wast't burned in the Civil War (civil, lol). I like, in a strange way, I cannot continue...

[MissHoneychurch]

22. I lived in Savannah, GA for half a year

during my internship. It was one of the best times in my life. So I totally understand what you say. I enjoyed being able to drive to the Atlantic in less than half an hour. The history of the town. Its people.

You won't hear me say a bad word about the South. The people I met were friendly and welcoming and wonderful. And the food is delicious.

I prefer Savannah over Charleston, but that is me.

[Mr. Ected]

18. USA, Canada & Mexico

Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, France, Luxembourg, Lichtenstein, Switzerland, Italy, Austria, Czech Republic, Sweden and Denmark.

I would like to see the rest. And all of the above, again.

[MissHoneychurch]

25. You better get started then

:)

[Mr. Ected]

62. Oh, man, I forgot 2

England and Ireland. Must've been pretty intoxicated.

[meow2u3]

19. I've visited only Canada

I'm US born and raised...

...and I want to visit:
Portugal
Italy

...and I'd emigrate to the former if I had the money to do so :(

[MissHoneychurch]

26. Haven't been to Portugal

but been to Italy more than once. It is a beautiful country. Very romantic *sigh*

[rug]

21. I went to Niagara Falls once and crossed the border.

Otherwise, the most exotic trip i took was to South Dakota.

[MissHoneychurch]

27. Both offer wonderful nature

so that is nothing to be ashamed of :)

[cwydro]

23. OK

Germany
England
Wales
France
Spain
Ireland
the Bahamas
Austria
Mexico
Canada
Haiti
Puerto Rico
Virgin Islands

I would love to do the TransSiberian train trip! Always been a dream of mine!

[MissHoneychurch]

24. So let's plan the TransSiberian train trip together

more fun that way anyway :D

[cwydro]

32. I would do that in a minute!

I'll start researching it today!

[Deep13]

28. Freedonia, Vulgaria, Parador, Derka-Derkastan

Oh, wait, those are all fake countries from movies. (Duck Soup, Chitty-Chitty-Bang-Bang, Moon over Parador, Team America)

Actually: England ('93 & '99), Germany, Austria, Hungary (all '93)

[HughBeaumont]

29. Canada. Just Ontario, to be specific.

Yeah, that's about it. No money tree in the backyard, sorry . . .

[MissHoneychurch]

31. Hey there HughBeaumont

:hi: :hug: :loveya:

I heard Canada is a wonderful country :)

[HughBeaumont]

33. A lot of love in those smileys . . .

I'd like to go to Montreal. That's likely my next stop up there, but we'd have to hit Ottawa before that.

I only went because from NE Ohio, it's driveable for me. We did Niagara Falls, Toronto and Ottawa 3 years ago. I'd like to visit Vancouver someday.

[MissHoneychurch]

35. Well, I haven't seen you in a while

so a lot of love collected :D

[Brickbat]

30. Lived in Russia; visited Finland, Bulgaria, Germany, Austria, France, England, Canada.

I'd like to go to Iceland and Ireland.

[MilesColtrane]

34. England

France
Germany
Holland
Japan
Mexico
Scotland
South Korea
North Korea (very briefly at the DMZ)
Wales

And, after November, Singapore.

[cwydro]

36. I forgot to say which countries I want to see.

But there are so many.

Italy
all the Scandinavian countries
Czech Republic
New Zealand
Russia
More of Canada
Iceland

and many more...

[Fleshdancer]

37. Japan, Malysia, Thailand....

Spain, France, Italy, and Canada. Oddly enough, I'm one of the few Texans who has never been to Mexico. That needs to change soon.

I can't think of any country I wouldn't want to visit, but the top three on my wish list right now are Iran, Columbia, and India.

[MissHoneychurch]

38. As someone who has been to the Iran

I can only recommend it.

[Fleshdancer]

40. I watched a travel show on PBS years ago on Iran...

and ever since then, I've been itching to go. I'm a sucker for travel shows, but I've visited enough places to know that the show could never to the location justice. Assuming this is also the case for Iran, the architecture alone must be a feast for the eyes. The people seem very nice too.

What took you to Iran?

[MissHoneychurch]

41. Vacation

my mom went there a couple of times for work. She was so fascinated by the little she's seen that she convinced us to go there for vacation. We went in May for 2 weeks.

I posted some pictures here from the trip. You can see the pictures in my journal.

[kentauros]

39. As an adult, just one: New Zealand.

As a child, our family took a cruise of the Caribbean in the early 70s. I'd be hard pressed to name the islands today (I was 11 or 12 at the time.) And a couple of the Texas/Mexico border towns in the late 70s. Other than that, economics has kept me pretty well in this state most of the time.

Then again, Texas is a "whole other country" anyway ;)

[kayakjohnny]

42. Well, I've been fortunate to have most of my international travel done before flying got so hard.

Have made it to New Zealand and was able to stay for 6 whole months.

Costa Rica for 6 weeks.

Guatemala

Belize.

Brazil.

Bahamas

Mexico.

Most of the US.

Hope to make a big trip to Africa before I get too old.

[MissHoneychurch]

43. So mainly the Americas

what about good old Europe?? :D

[JCMach1]

44. UAE, Oman, Lebanon, Turkey, Germany, Lux, Belgium, Netherlands

France, England, Armenia, Nepal, Greece, Kenya, Caymans, Jamaica, Bahamas, Mexico, Haiti

and most parts of the U.S.

Want to see Scotland, Ireland, Eastern Europe, Egypt, Morocco, Spain, Thailand, Japan, China, Russia, Ukraine and Italy... so have some work today.

Most pleasant surprises were Armenia and Luxembourg. We loved those places.

It pays to be in a bargain air hub in the middle of everything! I live less than 1K from the Sharjah Airport.

[bikebloke]

45. Here goes...

Western Europe, except Portugal (Eastern Europe was still off limits back then.)
former Yugoslavia
Greece
Israel
Cyprus
Turkey
Morocco
Palestinian Territory
Nepal

Australia
New Zealand
Argentina
Mexico
Canada

Still on my list:

[Courtesy Flush]

47. Depends what you mean by "visit"

I've made day trips into Canada and Mexico, but spent only a few hours there. Same for the Vatican.

I've only seen the sunset in the US and Italy.

[Kali]

49. Mexico, Canada (Vancouver Island only), Hawaii (LOL), Taiwan, Japan, Germany, France, and Turkey

Was supposed to get to Australia this year, but the economy sucked those plans down the toilet. Will be heading back down to Chihuahua, Mexico in a couple of weeks, though. Kind of looking forward to it.

[foxfeet]

50. Studied for a year in (then) West Germany.

DDR
France
Italy
Spain
Portugal
Netherlands

South Africa
Iceland
Brazil
Peru
England
Wales
Scotland
Ireland
And probably more.

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

51. Was stationed in Germany for a little more than a year

Just south of Stuttgart.

Not a good place for dieting :). But, saw a bit of Europe during my stay, I liked Spain a lot.

Is Turkey a European country? Are they in the EU, or trying to get in? Anyway, I visited the non-european part of it, on the coast in Izmir.

A short visit to Morocco.

Canada many times, sometimes just for lunch.

:hi:

[MissHoneychurch]

52. Let me guess

you've been in Sindelfingen :)

Been to Madrid and I liked it a lot. Still wanna see more.

Turkey is still trying to get in the EU .... doubt that will happen soon.

There is so much to see on this Earth .... but not enough time and money.

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

53. No, I missed Sindelfingen

My impression was that it was just a town for factories.

I was just outside Mohringen, a little town surrounded by farms. I imagine by now Stuttgart has grown so all the farms are developed into suburbs.

Tubingen was a nice little drive, well worth visiting.

:hi:

[ceile]

54. Germany, Austria, Mexico and Ireland

I would love to see Turkey, Sweden, New Zealand and India. Trying to convince my man that Goa would be a great honeymoon destination. Or maybe Bruges....

[jonnyblitz]

55. Canada, Korea, Thailand, Phillipines, Singapore, Israel, Bahrain

(lived in Bahrain for a year), Holland (sister lived in Amsterdam for a few years, had lengthy visits),Italy, Sicily, France, Israel, Saudi Arabia, kuwait, Oman, UAE,Australia, Tazmania, and England. If i can think of more I will add them on an edit. I must confess I was in the US NAVY and travelled that way though i went to Canada and Holland on my own. I would give anything to visit your country, Germany, particularly Berlin. If my sister would have lived a bit longer in Amsterdam I would have visited Berlin from there. I visited Paris instead.

oh, and I hope you are well! :hug: :hi:

[MissHoneychurch]

58. Hey there jonnyblitz

:hi: :hug:

if you ever decide to come to Germany, there is a bed you can use :)

[racaulk]

56. I live in the USA and have visited the Bahamas, Ireland, and the United Kingdom.

I was a very sheltered child, and have a lot of traveling to catch up on! :hi:

[NewJeffCT]

57. Italy, France, Monaco, China, Aruba

still want to go to Canada, some more islands in the Caribbean, Japan, plus most of Western Europe. Those are probably realistic. I'm sure I'll go back to China a few more times as well.

Places I'd like to go, but I don't really see happening: mostly for the history - Russia, Turkey & Greece, Egypt, Mexico. Plus, Australia & New Zealand.
.

[frogmarch]

59. Born in Karachi, Pakistan when

it was till India.

I've been to Australia (I took my first baby steps there)

I lived in Tokyo for four years in the 1940s with my family when my dad was in the Army.

I visited England as an adult.

I'd like to visit Ireland, and I'd also like to visit my sister in New Zealand someday.

[sakabatou]

38-40, depending on how you count it:

and assuming I counted right:
1.US
2.Mexico
3.Jamaica
4.Bahamas
5.Germany
6.UK
7.France
8.Spain
9.Morocco
10.Andorra

My family lived in Germany for about 17 years and made traveling a priority.

As for which countries I'd like to see - I'd like to go back to several I've been to already, such as Germany, Greece and Egypt, plus Scotland (I've been to the UK, but only to England) and Iran - assuming the political situation were more congenial. I have a lot of interest in early Middle Eastern history and archaeology, from the Sumerians and Elamites to the Zoroastrian kings of Persia and would love to see some of the archaeological sites in person. I might also like to see some of Central Asia, but I'm not sure how comfortable I'd be with that. Maybe it'd be worth facing an organized tour for something like that.

[MrMickeysMom]

66. Not as many, but they were all later in life...

Caribbean
Canada
Italy
Turkey

Mississippa (sorry)

[KamaAina]

67. Canada and Hawai'i

I was born in the U.S.A. and so am not a visitor; obviously, I missed Hawai'i's independent era by a century or so.

[distantearlywarning]

68. My list:

Tahiti, Australia, New Zealand, Mexico, Canada, England, Scotland, Germany, France. Also been nearly everywhere in the U.S. including Hawaii (but not Alaska or the deep South).

Going back to Paris this Christmas because my husband's never been.

Places I'd like to go and maybe will get to in the next decade: Africa, Egypt, Italy, Norway. My absolute dream vacations are one of those luxury African safaris, and a first-class trip on the Orient Express from Paris to Istanbul. This trip looks really fun, too: http://www.bharatonline.com/rajasthan-tours/camel-safari.html

69. I'll count countries I stepped foot in

Not necessarily visited.

United States
Mexico
Ireland
Germany (Frankfurt-Hahn Airport :hi:)
Kuwait
Iraq

I would like to visit Scotland, the African continent, South America(doesn't matter what country), and Canada. I would like to revisit Germany and explore the country. I would like to see other parts of Europe as well. I would like to revisit Iraq if things ever settle down over there.
