I actually took a lot of foreign languages at school because I'd always imagine that I'd be traveling the world when I graduated. Sadly, reality sinks in and I realize that dream might be just a dream. I imagined myself going to France or to Italy. I always dreamed of that place. But I'm still here, so who knows what will happen in the next five years or so.
I wish.

Yes, luckily I have been traveling since 1997. My first trip was in Switzerland. It was a wonderful trip and ever since I have been addicted to traveling. I have already visited 101 cities in 13 countries which include the U.S., Canada, and Europe. I have been to France, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Switzerland, Austria, and Germany. I started traveling when I was 27, you are still young and you can travel as much as you can in the future. Just keep on working hard, and keep on dreaming, you will get to places where you want to go.

I have visited 101 cities in a span of 12 years. As I said, my first trip was Switzerland. After which I got addicted to traveling. I asked my sister to come with me again to Switzerland and the 2nd time I went there with my sister was a blast. We stayed for 90 days. We are just so lucky since we have about more than 5 cousins and friends who live in Switzerland which means that we saved a lot from hotel expenses and food too,lol. We traveled all over Switzerland and we bought a 60 days Swiss pass, this is a rail pass where you can travel all over Switzerland using the train,bus,and boat. It is actually the best way to travel Switzerland.

My next trip was in the U.S. and Canada. In the U.S. we again bought a rail pass, they call NORTH AMERICA RAIL PASS. A 30 day rail pass which allows you to take a ride on Amtrak(american rail) and VIA RAIL(Canadian rail). You can practically go anywhere in the U.S. and Canada using the train. Its cheap,fun, and exciting. During this trip, my sister and I were able to visit Toronto,New York, Delaware, Chicago,Milwaukee,Denver,Colorado Springs, Grand Canyon, Florida, Washington D.C.,Minnesota, Minneapolis, Duluth, Wisconsin. My sister and I always looks for cheaper way to travel since we do not have the money to burn. If you have the passion for it and will to do it, you can actually fulfill you dreams. Hope you can travel soon too.

I also want to go abroad some day. It is also my dream since I was very young. I wish I could pay a visit to America, France and so on. I want to experience the culture diversity and the beautiful scenery. I wish my dream could come true in the near future.

enjoying other countries must be very interesting thing to do. but because it needs much money, it's difficult to make it true. but, like your wish, I hope I can visit one foreign country in my life..good luck for you..:)

I have been living abroad for two years now. I have been to two other countries before. I think everybody wants to travel at some point in their life. What's keeping you from travelling abroad anyway?

yeah, it means we need great preparation before deciding for going abroad. but frankly, i can't imagine that i could fly away to a foreign country. i think it's too 'high' to be true/reached..but thx for the wish. by the way, if you have enough preparation, which country do you prefer to visit? Indonesia? LOL..
