Me, I've been in different places and different countries too. last November, we had been in Singapore and it was so nice to be there. It is so clean and quiet. Eventhough they are strict, they are really kind to people. We had been in China, Hongkong and Palawan.There are a lot of places that are so fascinating! We should appreciate it very much. You, where have you been? :D

I've been to the whole Europe, Indonesia, Tunisia, Egypt, Morocco and in the US: Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Atlanta, Orlando, Miami. Our family went to a cruise every year and we travelled by plane too. Last september we went to Egypt. The older I am, the less we travel around, because I'm going to travel with my friends from now on. I travel at least once or twice a year for a week or more. I live for these weeks because traveling and meeting other people and knowing other countries is really fun.

Does your job require you to travel? Or do you travel just for fun and leisure? That's a lot of places!

I travel whenever I can! I've been to about half the countries in Europe I think, I don't go to new places very often as I have friends I try to visit as often as possible. And I still haven't seen very much of my own country, one reason being that Norway is very expensive :-/ I've been to Australia and New Zealand once, once in Japan, Bangkok and Singapore and 3 times in the US. One time to Chicago ( I flew there a week after the planes crashed 11. sept) + Washington, one time to Seattle + Utah (drove there) and one time to Boston. I liked Boston, especially the food in the Italian quarter. We had some very nice pizza and the best dessert ever!

I really love to travel and have visited fifty different countries. When I was 18 years old I traveled around Europe by train. I was 20 years old when I traveled around the world. I have been on safari in Kenya and met the Masai Mara tribe there. I have visited Israel and Jordan. At age 29 years old I traveled to New Zealand, French Polynesia, the Cook Islands and Samoa. I liked going to the Seychelles and the Maldives. Last year I took my toddler son to Cape Town and the Garden Route. This year I shall be taking him and my baby daughter to Nova Scotia in Canada.

I hope that you will enjoy meeting some tribes in different parts of the world. In South Africa my son and I met some very poor people. It was interesting to see where they live. I liked finding out about the charity that is helping those people. Happy traveling.

DH and I love to travel although we haven't traveled out of the U.S. very much. We've visited the Bahamas, Mexico, and Canada, I love, love,love Vancouver. It's a fabulous place to visit. In terms of U.S. vacations, my favorites have been a cruise to Alaska. Glacier Bay is incredible. Hawaii. A drive up the Oregon coast, IMO the most breathtaking stretch of coastline in the U.S. Another favorite was a three week vacation along the New England coast. We visited Connecticut, Rhode Island (loved Misquamicut beach), Massachussetts, New Hampshire and Maine (loved Bar Harbor). We've also traveled the Olympic peninsula in Washington state extensively. This summer, we're going on an extensive trip to Europe. Other trips in the near future will be to the Atlantic provinces of Canada, Austrailia and New Zealand.

Alaska is cold but some cities not so much. We cruised in early September. It was extremely cold when we cruised on the open seas. In Ketchikan it was so warm that we were in t-shirts. We're from Southern California so we aren't used to cold. The glaciers are extraordinary. One of the most beautiful places that I've seen in my life was Glacier Bay. If you want to see snow in the U.S. make sure that you visit in the winter time. If you want the best of all worlds, come to Southern California. In one day (a long one!), you can visit the beach, then the desert and lastly the mountains. It's one of the best things about living here.

I love to travel. In fact, I save all year my online´s earnings to travel someplace. The last time I was invited aboard a sailing boat to sail at the Caribbean from Cartagena de Indias (Colombia) to Kunayala (San Blas Islands, Panamá) to leave the yatch at Colón, Panamá and go by land to Panama City to see the Ciudad Vieja and fly back from there. Before that I had spent 2 weeks at Aruba and before that, I went to Camboriu, Brasil for a week. I travel at least once a year and the goal depends a lot on how much money I can spare. This year I´ll go to the south of Chile. I have to have shoulder surgery so this will the the best of vacations. I´m go with an aunt and two cousins to a place that has a temperate pool (I´ll have to do excersises with my shoulder for some time) and nearby there are lots of beautiful Hot Springs amid forests and volcanoes.

I live in Florida so traveling to me is usually on cruises. I will be going on the biggest ship out there in July which is the newest ship out there also called the Oasis. I will be going to Haiti and two places in Mexico and i think that will be great. I have already been to Haiti and Mexico but to go again and again is always nice and to not always be in your Country is nice too and experience hoe others live. In the United States i have been to West Virginia, Baltimore Maryland and Washington DC. Those places were amazing and you learn so much about your country when you are their too. I have always been to North Carolina in the summer time and i have been to Tennessee in the Winter Time. There are so many more places i would love to go and many other things i would like to see. Its just the time and money of course.

I don't get to travel as much as I want to but I make it a point to travel to a foreign country at least once a year. It is a diffrent experience and you get to observe another culture . You learn a lot of things about the people and the places you go to . You get to discover many things about these places and sometimes you get to discover something new from yourself. I also like to take roadtrips. It is a way of travelling that is relaxing and you can think about a lot of things during those trips .

yah right..travelling is a good way to know the culture of other people and also to know yourself... travelling especially in other countries are so expensive because you want to buy those souvenirs that they sell... it is so fun but tiring :D

Hi prityme!^^ Wow. I envy you! I have been wanting to go to Hongkong and Singapore. Me and my officemates were planning to go to Hongkong this coming March but they postponed it and told me we should go in May instead and add Macau in our itinerary. I'm happy with it but I couldn't help to be disappointed because I was so excited and March is already near and I'm already planning what clothes to wear. LOL Anyway, what's one or two months to wait, right?^^ I have been into many places here in the country though. I like traveling and I did lots of it when I was still in school and still doing lots of it now that I'm working. I have been into many tourist places here in the country but there's still a lot to go to and explore and I wish I could go to all of them.^^ I'm just hoping I can add more pictures and souvenirs in my collection before I get tired of traveling.

Yeah, that would give me plenty of time to save more pocket money. And I guess I should be thankful for that. I'm sure that if I'm already there, I wouldn't be able to stop myself from shopping. LOL Oh, I would definitely not forget to bring a camera! That's one essential thing in traveling. ^.~

Wow, you've been to some interesting places. They do sound fascinating, and it would certainly be interesting to see all the different cultures. I used to travel quite a lot. I lived abroad a few times when I was younger, and also travelled quite a lot within Europe. Now I have a family it's more difficult to get away, and travelling just seems to get a lot more tricky. It's also expensive, and there are other things which tend to eat up all your money when you're no longer young, free and single, lol!

lol!!!oh yeah!!!having your own family is a lot harder than travelling alone but if you are with your family, it will be the happiest travelling with them... you and your family must travel atleast once a year i guess?? hahahaha... :D

Not as much as I would like to - there are still so many places that I want to see and I am still planning on seeing them. I love travelling to different countries and places.

Enough is not enough for me when it comes to travel. I have covered quite a bit of my own country and have been to 7 countries in Europe, and in the US I have been to New York, Bufallo, Washington, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, San Fransisco, San Jose, Oxnard, New Jersey, Colorado (Denver), Canada (to see the Niagara Falls from the Canadian side) after experiencing it from the US side. I have also been to Australia and New Zealand and Nepal. The countries I visited gave me an opportunity to sight see some important landmarks as guided by our package tour conductors. I have also been on a cruise of the Bahamas by the Royal Caribbean Sovereign of the Seas - a wonderful experience. I have a dream to visit Alaska!!
