Have any of you guys visited foreign countries? Do you travel often? Where are some of the places you have visited in your life?
Vancouver is the most beautiful and scenic place I have been, Seattle which is close by. In the 90's went to LA and Vegas.
India loads of times, Barcelona and Gran Caneria.
went to Spain when I was 4 and had chickenpox, haven't been abroad since.
last time I had a proper week long holiday by the sea was when I went to Weymouth when I was 10 years old.
Is India as dirty as they report it to be?Quote:

Don't know what it is but the older I've got I've gone right off flying. A bad flight coming home from Barbados a few years ago started it and its just got worse....
I am lucky to have travelled extensively, its always impossible to answer the question where is your favourite place.
But here are a few of mine -
Lake Garda Italy.
New Zealand ( north and south islands).
The Hunter Valley wine region Australia.
Napa Valley wine region USA.
The Maldives Indian Ocean.
Sydney Harbour.
Venice.
Aruba.
Barbados ( especially Mullins Beach ).
There are a few of my favourite places, but there are many more.
Alaska (as a kid).... and most of the United States. Also Mexico, Costa Rica, and a trip to Europe a few years ago. Loved Spain, Italy, and the Greek isle of Santorini. Well.... I did some business trips to Europe many years ago and really loved Germany.
On one of those trips actually made it to England as well.
So I have set foot in the United Kingston.
Done some extensive travel but since people mentioned Canada I can say Montreal is a beautiful place even though they get a little snobby if you speak English. Toronto was cool but too much like the US. Numerous other places I traveled I was heavily armed and had a lot of support so I’ll skip those but China is always nice to visit
Where I stayed in the village it was nice, it had toilets and showers.Quote:

I would like to go to NewYork, Australia and New Zealand.
No isolationist but only Country I've been to is Mexico, N and S Baja and many a run to Tijuana during some drawn out summers. Been to a few sparsely populated Bayous in Louisiana by air boat that absolutely felt like foreign Countries ;D. Hope to travel up North a bit sometime, have never been beyond Oklahoma. Have driven coast to coast more times than I can count.
I regret that I’ve seen more of other countries than my ownQuote:

True that. Even though I think sometimes it doesn't matter how big or small the place we live is..... many times we don't get out enough in our own "backyard" sort to speak to explore all of it. Puerto Rico is 100 x 35 (miles) and there are still places in the island I haven't seen. Go figure.
I've still not been to Stone Henge......
Or Birningham (don't plan to)
Too expensive just waiting for the lottery win.Quote:

In Europe: Paris, Versailles, Normandy where d-day took place obviously, saw the Bayeux tapestry, Bruges
I do wish to travel a bunch more. I've gotten around the US a good deal but there's plenty more places to go here and worldwide....perhaps I'll make it to Jolly Old one day and see where my people are from so also Scotland and Ireland as well then.
I stayed in today
I have been to several European countries and several Asian ones. I am not a big traveler, but will do more in the coming decade. I am a useless traveler though. I am the kind of person that will get on the wrong bus and end up 4 hours away from a planned destination. I get confused anytime I go near an airport as I forget the process. Plus they change things and nobody tells me. I got to the UK and the immigration woman looked at me in a stern way and said that I am British and should use the self check machine. What is a self check machine? I have no idea how to use the subway in any city of the world either. Do they even take cash anymore? You end up thinking 'Why did I not just stay at home?' I am a bit like Karl Pilkington sometimes. An obvious genius, but I have issues with the practical things.
Lyle I don't think he meant name all the places you have been , otherwise the thread would be 1000pages long if we all listed everywhere.Quote:
