I've been a few places. I've been to North Carolina. I don't remember much because I was 6, but I did like the beach.
I've been to Canada...Niagara Falls. I loved the water, but I want to go back so I can learn to appreciate more of the culture rather than the obvious tourist spectacle.
(My favorite!) I had the good fortune of going through a leadership program (People to People) and spent 3 weeks in Europe. I went to Germany, Switzerland, France and Spain. All I can say is...be careful in Spain because their crime rate is sky high, and if you can go to France... GO! It's one of the most amazing places I've ever been in my life...and don't just go to Paris! Paris is beautiful, but some of the best places aren't in Paris. Lyon, Orange, Mont Martre...go if you get the chance...you won't regret it.

My mom and I took a trip one year to Venice, Florence, and Rome, Italy. Loved it! We want to travel basically all over Europe (Mom especially wants to see Eastern and Northern Europe, and I especially want to see Western Europe and the Mediterranean), but we'll have to see if we can save up to do it.

This fall I'm going to Europe for the first time. I'm going to be living in Germany but hope to travel around a bit. Florence, Paris, London, Cologne, Rome, Geneva, Glasgow...the list goes on! I can't wait, but I really hope I don't give of that "bad tourist" vibe. Haha.

Haven't been to Europe as of yet, but my fave show is Passport to Europe on the Travel Channel.
Places in Europe I would like to visit:
1. Spain! Well, I'm going there this summer, so I guess I can check that off.
2. France. It just seems like a really pretty place. I'd like to go to Paris, but also go to Nice and Cannes, and maybe Leon.
3. Italy. Who doesn't want to go to Italy? THE FOOD, THE FOOD! Oh, and the culture.
4. The UK. All over! I love those accents.
5. Switzerland. Chocolate, skiing, cheese... how can you go wrong?
6. Germany. Not so much Berlin, but Bavaria.
7. Sweden. Not sure why, but it appeals to me.
8. Amsterdam. No, not because I want to smoke pot. Think outside the box, people.
9. Portugal. Like Spain, but different, and Lisbon has some really cool places to see.
10. Greece. Particularly the islands (Mykonos, Santorini, etc...)
11. Poland. Not sure why, just seems cool and different.
Oh, sod it. Just look at the list of cities of Passport to Europe. I'm sick of typing.

I just got back from a week in London and a week in Paris. It was so amazing, I adore Europe. If you travel with no illusions and don't expect everything to smell like home, and you learn to adapt to situations, it's fantastic. I stayed in a dirty hostel and I still loved it. I'm going back to France in January to become fluent. <3

I live in Texas, but I move around a lot.
Hmm.. Summer of '06, I went to Germany for (of course) the World Cup. Had lots of fun there. So many soccer fans and A LOT of traffic.
Hmm.. besides the World Cup, I went to Hamburg to meet my relatives, then went to Berlin, Hannover, Travemünde, Kiel. Then went to Holland to meet my other relatives. And then we went to Amsterdam from there. Ugh. I stayed in Amsterdam for about 5 hours and then had to drive back. Such a pain. I didn't even get to see Anne Frank's house.
Hmm.. Besides Europe, I went to Victoria,Canada for a while to visit my relaatives again. And I think that's it so far.
Still no countries from Asia. (Hoping to change that very soon.)

In my life i travel trough:
-Portugal (my contry): I've traveled specialy trought the north and center of Portugal, ive went to most of the main citys and im currently studing on Oporto city, and i love that city! I've only went to Lisbon 3 times in my life and i can only say, that if u want to eat well dont go to Lisbon or to Algarve, the best food is on the "Minho", "Alentejo" and "Beiras", this names arent citys. This is how we split our contries, into areas that have certain names and in each area there are a certain number f citys and villages. My favourite citys here in Portugal are: Aveiro, Oporto(Porto), Guimarães, Évora and Bragança. Ofcourse that there are mutch more cities that i like, ut those are my main favourites ^_^
- France: i cant remember because i was 2 years old lol
- Switzerland: i was 2 years old, so i cant remember either
- Italy: I went on a cruise and i spent 2 days in Venice and 1 day on Bari. I loved the food specialy and i felt like i was in Portugal lol because the language was really easy to understand, the streets were a litle dirty ( what a stupid thing to say lol), like in Porugal, and the culture was very looked like ours! We are latins! ^_^ I also loved the city of Venice is gourgeos!!!
- Spain: I also know a litle of Spain, because its near Portugal and its easy to go there. I've went to Asturias( i loved the montains!), Galiza ( Galiza its almost portuguese, because if u ask whitch country they prefer(Spain or Portugal) they will say Portugal lol we have a strong link with that part of Spain, mainly because of the short distance, because of the language that in that zone is almost portuguese and, again, bacause of the food lol yes we love o eat! well! lol
i also know Barcelona quite well, i spent 10 days during my whole life in Brcelona city. I love that city! I love the way the city is organised and all that streets and animation during winter to summer ^_^
I also know a litle of south spain, but i dont like it very mutch, because it has lots of people during Summer...
- Holand: i've went to Holand 4 years ago and i went to Amesterdam, Roterdan, Haya (i dont know if its this way that its spelled) and other villages. I loved the cold weather(i went during winter) it was a really neat and organised contry, but i wouldnt be capable to leave there, because i think that they are really different from the contries from south Europe. Anyway its a really beautyfall contrie!!!
-Greece: Another contrie with a similar culture with Portugal and that i also loved lol I went to Olimpia, Mikonos, Rhodes and Santorini. It was greeaat! The weather, the food, the people, the culture...
- England: i cant remeber i was only 3, but i want to go there again! ^_^
- Scotland: i cant remember either, but its also a contry that i would love to visit

I just got back from a 3 week drip around Europe with my Rents.
I went to Venice, Milan, Paris and London.
Never forget Singapore.
Lol.
It was great fun.
I'm really tired from it though.
The plane trips there and back in economy class is really crap.
I so want to live in Venice.
How nice it would be.
I waited all day in line to get to the top of the Effiel Tower.
But trust me it was worth it.
Went to London where I used to live.
Great.
