Which countries have you visited?

I've lived in America, Spain, Saudi Arabia, and Iran. I've visited or passed through Mexico, England, Ireland, Germany, Greece, Italy, and Lebanon.

It was 40 odd years ago and wasn't on Trump's radar yet. Thing is I had two visitors with me. One was on probation so luckily we made it back to the US.
I'm your huckleberry.
Wales is the most visited, because of my brother living there. Other than that, the occupied counties, England, France, Netherlands, Germany (both twice), Sweden and Portugal. I also spent a night in Bruges on a school tour to Germany, though that was less a visit than finding a place that would sell 15 year old me beer.

While camping ca y2k, we walked across the border into Mexico to get some cheap wool blankets. Wife looked at the weather for Phoenix (hot) but we were camping in the mountains, ~ 4k feet up (NOT hot). Liked to have frozen our asses off. Didn't pay a lot for those blankets, and we still have them.

Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.

Just Canada. I traveled around the U.S. a bit when I was young, but gave up on travel vacations at a point.
I no longer care much for traveling myself. I would rather watch a good travel show. Some of David Attenborough's later nature documentaries are amazing.
Oh, I forgot to mention Netherlands, we spent three days there on our way to Iran in 1974.
Canada
Mexico Costa Rica Brazil England Ireland France Germany Italy China Singapore Indonesia Mostly for work. |
