Great memories, I've visited 32 countries, 47 states, and 3 provinces. Lived in 7 states and 2 countries (10 years)...was in an AF job that let me see the world.
|
Iv been to a whopping dozen states! From Niagra falls to Florida. Up and down the east coast atleast 3 times. Never been off the ground though
|
I've never really thought about how many places but thanks for bringing it up. Found a cool customizable map here: https://www.mapchart.net/world.html
48 Countries 40 States 10 Provinces The world is a big place. China looks like a chicken. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1761310641.png http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1761310670.png |
Since we are making lists, here’s mine.
Countries: Canada USA Mexico France Spain Monaco Italy Malaysia Thailand Russia Netherlands Germany England Scotland Norway Northern Ireland and Irish Republic I guess 17 if you split Ireland. States: Washington Oregon California Montana Idaho Wyoming Nevada Utah Arizona Colorado North Dakota South Dakota Oklahoma Texas Florida Louisiana Minnesota Wisconsin Illinois Indiana Ohio Pennsylvania New York Michigan Hawaii Alaska Provinces: BC Alberta Saskatchewan Manitoba Ontario Quebec Yukon Northwest Territories |
Been around a bit. Lived in 12 countries and seen 114 more.
Every state in the country, all of Canada and every country in CenAmerica and most countries in South America. Really the only countries that I have not been to are those that you really do not want to go to like Iran, Yemen, Ruwanda, Buthan and so on. Lived in Africa (Lagos Nigeria) and spent 6 months in Moscow (Late Oct until May, yes it was cold) and garden spots like Saudi Arabia....two year tour there. Retired now, have ZERO need to travel anymore, just very happy that I can sleep in my own bed almost every night and never eat hotel food again! |
^^^ wow! What was your favorite place to visit? What was your most interesting place to live and why?

Otherwise would have to say Berlin Germany is my favorite city, lived there for 11 years, flew medivac out of Tempelhof Air Base in the 1980's and 1990's. Was flying a heart transplant mission the night the Berlin Wall fell. Fantastic times. Smaller city would be Copenhagen Denmark. Beautiful place, great people and friendly as well. Places with a beach... there are two. First one is not easy to get to but the Maledive Islands SouthEast of India is one of the most beautiful places on Earth. Otherwise Tahiti and/or Fiji are very nice. For a large Island the South Island of New Zealand is heaven on Earth. |

We are in Inverness, Scotland right now.

About 30 different countries so far, most recently (last 10 years) France, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Poland, Ireland, Scotland, Guatemala, Mexico, Ecuador, Peru, Chile, China, Morocco, Austria, Hungary, Czech Republic, Turkey, Greece, Canada, Dominican Republic, Iceland, Germany, bunch of smaller-tiny countries. All US states except Pacific NW and Alaska.
Thinking back on all these journeys makes me think of the crappiest airlines we ever had the misfortune to ride on. Could be a good thread to explore, maybe it's been done already.. |
Traveling is my greatest joy.
man I love it all. |
