    I was thinking and well, how many people here have been to another country? o.o (Using the country you were born in as a beginning point.)

    And also, have you ever been to another continent?

    Here, it is really normal for everyone to go to the U.S. for vacation every year so, nearly everyone has been to another country but I realized that most people I know online haven't x.x;; (I don't do the U.S. thing btw.)

    (Note: There's "Yes, continent" and not "Yes, country and continent" cause if you went to another continent then, you obviously went to another country e.e; )

      Nope. The furthest I have been from where I live is Central Australia (a hole, trust me). Being in Australia, I can't exactly get to another country without going on a boat or plane, and being short on money, it's no feesable for me to go overseas. When I finish my education, I plan to go the USA, Canada, England, and Scandanavia (Finland, Norway, Sweden etc.) as that's where some of the best music in the world comes from, and all the good bands go (Waken). I dont ever intend to go to Africa, Asia, the Middle East (for obvious reasons) or South America though (sorry sheep).

          Ive been to Mexico, ever hear of Cancun? XD well, me and some friends went there but we hated it. Drunken college kids everywhere (although the hot girls were def. the best part :smile:) We hung around and just surfed and stuff. I used to live in California and surfed as my major hobby, now...I live in PA, no oceans or anything. So, I have once and only once been to another country.

            Here, the Seniors (of whichever year we're on) have a tradition :B They go to Cancun at the end of the year or during summer vacation. They're not the only ones. And well, people here like to get drunk a lot. Connect the dots :B

              When I was 10 I went to Florida. Nice weather there, even in February.

                  Don't be narrow minded. Aisa has some great countries and will be a huge culture shock.

                  I've lived in Aus till 4 when i moved to Thailand(in asia) till i was 8 then came back.

                  I've been to Thailand, America,Malyasia,Singapore,Nepal,Bali,Australia and Fiji. I think thats it.

                  I'd like to go back to Thailand, went back there 2003 christmas. Also South America to see the old ruins Aztec,Incans etc and Canada, hear theres great snow boarding conditions up there.

                                I don't know if Turkey counts as a European country or an asian, but since I was in the eastern part I say it was asia. So I've been in another continent.

                                I've been in Denmark(the town I live in is the swedish town that is the closest to denmark) Germany(they have cheap drink) and Turkey. I don't remember anything from the trip but when I was 3-4 years I was in Greece.

                                    I've been all across Canada, from Newfoundland (where I live), to Victoria, BC. I've never left Canada, though (although on the way to Victoria, we flew over a teeny bit of the US, though I doubt that counts.

                                    so no. I've never left my country, and since I DON'T live in Russia, that means I've never left my continent either.

                                      I've been to Canada. Nice place. I may get to go to Mexico, but that's not a different continent, so. Just another country.

                                      But if you can also add states, I've been to almost every US State there is.

                                      To Kewne:turkey counts as Euope, but on the other side of Istanbul, that's Asia.

                                              No you dont want to live here, its not really all that great. Absolutly nothing happens, and its called "The Empire State" That says something right there

                                              I wanna move to New Hampshire

                                                    Why not? I'd rather live somewhere you're surronded by skyscrapers then here were there are cougar sightings, and absolutly FORKIN NOTHING happens.

                                                          I've been to Nigeria/Africa, Norway/Europe,(<My birth place) Canada, and New York/USA. Damn I've hit some big continents on my travels and seen some interesting things from dancing girls in a parade to dancing bums looking for some change.

                                                            I've been to Canada for 2-3 days last winter. Nothing special, I'm more of a stationary fellow. I hate packing, travelling, or staying anywhere that's not my house.

It's kinda dull here in this little fishing village where someone thought they saw a UFO several decades ago. I've been to two different provinces though, New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island. I like eavesdropping on the French people.

                                                                        I admit some places in Canada provide little or any interest but you have to come to the center of a country where you hear the most hype to really enjoy it. People don't go to a amusement park to go ride one ride when there are tons more left. Also your entertainment on your vacation could have been limited due to the season/age/time frame etc. It's all on the way you plan your trip ahead of time trying to find out what you want to do when you get to a country and if you can do your activities there.
