<p>^Yea, I’ll really have to look into things like that for college. I’m a senior this year, so it’s too late for high school.</p>
<p>(I’m from England) I have been to: Japan, Turkey, France, USA, Scotland, China. I’m going to Helsinki, Finland in January :).</p>
<p>@JoshByron-Ahaha North Dakota was my answer for the state I’d least like to live in-I’ve never been there, it just seems very cold and random. Yeah, when I went to LA my parents decided to get some weird taxi at LAX that dropped off families at their individual homes (we were going to the Port of Los Angeles, so we were of course last haha) so we basically saw Compton and East L.A. </p>
<p>And no!! You totally have been to better places. You’re doing some awesome internship in Honduras and you’re still in high school?! That’s so cool.</p>
<p>Hahhahah, oh come on, North Dakota isn’t that bad During the summer it actually gets pretty damn hot although, I do agree on that it is a pretty random place.</p>
<p>Well, the only reason I got the internship was due to my dad’s job (if one of your parents work in the embassy, then you are eligible to apply for a summer internship there). You’ve been to more than half of the US and you’ve been to Aruba (ahhh, I want to go there so bad! Well, maybe not as bad as Dubai, but it’s still up there on the list :)).</p>
<p>@JoshByron-:o :o :o That’s what I want to do (work for embassies)!!! That’s mad cool.
Aruba is beautiful, but it’ so small that I would get bored if I had to stay there for more than a few days. I actually loved St. Thomas and St. Maartan more, but my mom liked Aruba more, so it’s all a matter of opinion I want to go to Dubai as well! I can’t decide where I want to go the most. As of now it’s Tunis, because I’m impatient to get there :)</p>
<p>^didn’t know those purple faces would show up, they were supposed to be big eyes and a “whoa!” face, because that’s what the combo I typed shows up as on my Blackberry. Oops haha</p>
<p>Hahahahhaha. I WANTED to do the same thing when I was younger since I really LOVED travelling, but I don’t think I’d want to put my kids through what I went (moving every 2 years).</p>
<p>Ohh…I didn’t realize Aruba was so small. Nevertheless, I still want to visit :)</p>
<p>Aghh, I want to own an island in Tahiti so bad. Ever since I had to do this project for Econ I’ve wanted an island in Tahiti :D</p>
<p>One of my life goals is to be a world traveler.</p>

<p>I’ve been to: Canada, Mexico, Costa Rica, Cuba (don’t tell anyone!), UK, Northern Ireland, Ireland, Wales, Scotland, Japan, Taiwan, Hong Kong, China, Samoa, American Samoa, Guam, Saipan, Germany, Andorra, Monaco, Portugal, Spain, San Marino, The Vatican, Italy, Austria, Lichtenstein, Switzerland, France, Bahamas, and about 40 states.</p>
<p>I feel like a failure.</p>
<p>I’ve lived in 1 state.
I’ve vacationed in 6 states.
Stepped foot in 4 more.</p>
<p>I’ve had connecting flights in S Korea, Japan, and Hong Kong.</p>
<p>I go to Indonesia all the time, but it’s cause of my mom. I went to Bali last summer for the first time… pure amazingness.</p>
<p>We’re thinking of next year as either a trip to Indonesia for my mom and brother (…not me -_-), or England/France/Spain, or Hong Kong (my mom’s bff lives there).</p>
<p>I’ve been to France, Italy, Switzerland, Greece, Netherlands, Canada, Tanzania, Vatican City (lol), every state on the east coast and California.</p>
<p>I want to go to Australia, England, Spain, Madagascar, South Africa, Japan, China, Kenya, Aruba, Barbados, Egypt, India, UAE, Thailand, Germany, Chile, Brazil, Argentina, New Zealand and Russia.</p>
<p>Favorite: tied between Tanzania and Italy</p>
<p>Hated most: Greece. We went in the summer time and I couldn’t breathe. Athens was trashed and the Aegian beaches were rock-strewn and plagued with dark bands of sea urchins. Not fun stepping on those things …</p>
<p>Bali seems awesome !</p>
<p>@JoshByron-Yeah, I’ve been to Aruba twice, both on cruises, and it’s gorgeous, just quite small and fairly uninhabited. I can understand that it would be hard to move that often-I guess I romanticize it quite a bit, as I’ve never lived anywhere else, and that’s been…dull, to say the least :)</p>
<p>@justadream: You’ve been some awesome places! I hear Greece is lovely, but with what you said I’m kind of glad that won’t be a stop on my Senior (!!) trip next summer haha :)</p>
<p>@emorylegacy: You’re definitely not a failure! You at least have the dream of going other places-that’s more than I can say for most people here in podunkville, redneck state hahaha. :)</p>
<p>You guys are so lucky! Every time we vacation, it’s always to China. Which is great and all, but seeing some other countries wouldn’t be so bad, would it? :)</p>
<p>Another thing I’m miffed about is having never been to the northeast. Well, not thoroughly. I’d like to see England, France, Japan, Namibia, Kenya, Egypt, Brazil, Chile, and possibly Antarctica. Sigh. Maybe when I’m older. ;)</p>
<p>@randomazn14-I want to go to China desperately haha! Where in China have you been?</p>
<p>I’ve been to:
England, Spain, France, Switzerland, Germany, Italy, Bei Jing, Hong Kong (and some other places in China), New Zealand, Australia, Mexico, Bali, Phuket, Singapore, Malaysia and all the states on the East + West Coast, most of the states in the MidWest and err I think that’s pretty much it haha.</p>
<p>I have been to:
Canada, Italy, Switzerland, New York, Boston, Maine, Washington, Oregon, Hawaii, Pennsylvania, etc.
I really want to go to China, India, and England</p>
<p>I’ve been to a lot of places in my life!</p>
<p>I lived in Dubai, United Arab Emirates (U.A.E.)[im actually over here right now] up until I had to start HS here in MN.</p>
<p>so basically I used to live dubai up until the 1st grade…moved to NorthVA/D.C. Suburbs (falls church/fairfax county) up until 3rd grade.</p>
<p>Moved back to Dubai from 3rd-8th grade</p>
<p>moved to MPLS in the 9th grade.</p>
<p>** Places I’ve been to**: Oman, Malaysia, Iran, South Africa, Somalia (went there last summer…my vacation there was pretty ****ty but I learned many valuable life lessons while there), Ethiopia, Mozambique, Canada,VA,MD,MN, NY, NJ, FL, ME, MASS, NC, CT (born in hartford).</p>
<p>Airports I’ve made transits at but doesnt actually count: Heathrow (London) and Amsterdam (going to make a stopover here before i leave).</p>
<p>Places I REALLY want to go: Italy, England, India, Brazil ,Jerusalem (Israel), Yemen and Egypt.</p>
<p>RootBeer, yeah I was also excited about it. I guess it depends on timing so you won’t have to be so miserable in the sun (most hotels have no air conditioning. The food is awesome though, and everyone there looks like oompa loompas so that’s always a jersey shore plus. The sites are breath taking, too.</p>
<p>EastAfro, sick!! To say you went to Somalia for vaca is very rare haha. How is it living in Dubai?</p>
<p>Oh, I also want to go to Morracco</p>
