How well do you know your country (in terms of travel)

I am originally from Los Angeles and I have been to each and every state at Least 2 times and many states more. When I was growing up my parents would always plan a special 2 week vacation in which we would drive to where ever we were going and take in the sites along the way there and on coming back home we would always take a different route and take in different sites coming home. So it is not that I Flew over these places but got up close and personal with them. I also have traveled extensively around my adopted country of Holland by auto and train so I know pretty much what the hidden treasures of this country are also. I have also traveled around Mexico and Belgium quite a bit and some around France. I think it is such a shame when some people have never been out of their home town, there is such a big World out there just waiting to be seen! ;)

I live in the United States, and that's a lot of territory to cover. I have been in 30 or 31 of the states, but really only visited about half that. Heck, even all of Texas is hard to see and I've lived here most of my life!. Texas is a thousand miles from Orange to El Paso and from the top of the Panhandle to Brownsville - obviously it isn't square, but it is big! After all, El Paso is closer to Phoenix than it is Austin, and in a different time zone! I have been to California a couple of times, Washington state a couple of times, Colorado more than a couple, Tennessee 3 times, NJ, well, I was born there and we returned many a summer to visit for a few weeks. I just drove thru the north west tip of Georgia, we didn't really stop in Alabama, spent a night in Mississippi, went to Mammouth Cave in Kentucky and Lexington Horse Park.

I am from India but I live in the US now. I have travelled extensively in India and I am traveling in the US too. So I would say that I am trying to know my country and not only that but the world. There are so many places I want to see. Just waiting for the megamillion jackpot to set me on my world tour!!

I don't know my country so well in travelling.But i know the best places we can see in our country.In my native place there is a beach marina.It is a very long beach.It also has hot eatables to eat and shopping.Then comes a theme park kishkinta.The rides are very good and it is situated in a calm place.Then in kerala there is the backwaters.There you can stay in houseboats.You can also fish and enjoy the food in hotels there.Then there is a place in south.The sweet halwa over there is verytasty and made in pure ghee.Also in the north there are places like the taj mahal we can visit.Also we can visit jammu and kashmir for the snow and nice weather.We can shop for wollen items there.Also kolkatta is a very good place to eat.There is also place in eat india.The people over there have chinese looks in their face.

I travelled to some places in my country. There are still a lot of intresting places for me to discover. So here I would say I actually do not know much about my country. And I really hope to do much travelling in my spare time.

Travel,to me,would be a big problem. First of all, have no time. My job is busy all years, no that much time to travel around. Second, less of money, now I must pay for the house-loan to the bank every month. But I am so young,so believe I would travel all my country one day .

The answer to your question is that would say that i hardly know the country that i live in. I am from India and all though i can say that i have been in all the directions, there seems to be so much that i do not would like to know about and experience. The scenic beauty, the different cultural traditions,the historical places, the food, the weather and of course the people. Even if i did start on a journey now, i do not think a lifetime would be enough for me to really get to know my country in the way i would like to.

When I was younger I was too busy jetting off abroad to be aware very much of travel opportunities in my home country. I know that the transport system in the capital city, London, is excellent. It has buses, underground trains, the docklands light rail service, suburban trains and taxis. There are intercity trains and the fare system is complicated. I know that accommodation choices vary from guest houses, hotels, campsites and youth hostels. The top sights are varied and include London, Bath spa, historic York and the beautiful Lake District. There is a coastline that is lovely to go to in the summer months. I have been to about 50 different countries so far in my life time. I love traveling, overseas is often better value for traveling than my own country.

I live in Denmark and I would say that I know my country very well. I have lived in more than one part of the country and I have travelled around as a tourist in most of the other areas. I have lived in/worked in or visited the northern, the central and the southern part of the peninsula, the island Funen, the island Zealand, the islands Lolland and Falster and the island Bornholm. I have also visited quite a lot of the small islands. In a couple of months I am going to visit the northern part of Zealand and that is one of the few part of the country that I have never visited before.

I live in Hong Kong, China but I have only been to some places in China so I am not very familiar with my country as in travel. I know where are the famous spots in Hong Kong to travel though.

I'm from the US and I know NOTHING of my country as far as travel, which I am ashamed of. As soon as I save some more money, my plan is to rent an RV and check out each and every state. I would love to see it all in another perspective... I feel like I have the least in to say anything about other's countries (which I rarely do anyway) when I don't know my own myself.

i travel within the bounds of our country (Philippines) as much as I can. I prioritize travel opportunities within the country over travel abroad. Good thing, our flag carrier, Philippine Airlines provides package tours that are really reasonably priced. I usually travel at least 3 times a year and make it a point not to go to a place i have already been so that i will be able to visit more new places.
