Foreign travel - where you been lately?

Oops I missed on the second two.
2. No plans as yet. Stymied by work commitments for the foreseeable future.

  1. Syria/Palestine/Israel/Lebanon

Not counting the trips back home to see family in New Zealand, the last real holiday I took was to Cambodia.

Depending on how things fare financially this year and if we can get a good deal, we have Thailand or Japan on the list.

And the must-see locations for me are Sri Lanka, India, Jordan and Russia.

(ETA home base is currently Melbourne).

  1. UK, in July last year.
  2. New Zealand, in a week’s time.
  3. Nowhere immediately leaps to mind.
  1. France (2008)
  2. Italy (in March)
  3. Not sure, I’m marking off the ones I want to see the most right now. Ireland maybe?

Actually pizza delivery and I cannot find this I.C. Weiner guy anywhere.

  1. New Zealand South Island
  2. Probably New Zealand again. I’m this close to buying ANZ tickets right now–they’re having a pretty decent fare sale that ends on the 31st.
  3. The top spot on my life list would have to be Tanzania (Ngorongoro Crater, Serengeti National Park)
  1. Just came back from a three week trip to Budapest.
  2. I dunno. Maybe Oaxaca, Mexico.
  3. Iceland

Although an American, I live in Thailand, so I won’t count that.

  1. Laos.
  2. Difficult to answer. We plan to stay close to home this year and have no firm plans, but a holiday weekend in Singapore is not out of the question, and the wife will probably present a paper at a conference in Japan. The next country we are sure of visiting is the US early next year, an extended stay in New York and Hawaii. That is not a foreign country to me but is to the wife.
  3. Rwanda. I really want to see the mountain gorillas.

I did a whirlwind tour of Germany/Austria/Italy/Switzerland/Monoco/France/England and Scottland. Canada is nearby so I was there a bit more recently.

I’d go to almost anywhere in Central Europe

Before I cash in? Asolutely everywhere in Europe I’ve already been. It was incredible and over in the blink of an eye. Like Disneyland for an 8-year-old. Twice won’t be enough. It would take 3 months.

American, living back in America.

  1. Mexico. For a year and a half.
  2. China… a quick preview trip, and maybe a three-year assignment.
  3. Western Russia.

Not counting the countries where I live (I am American based in Prague and sometimes Dubai)…

  1. Sudan
  2. Algeria, Iran or Libya (depends a bit on the political situation)
  3. Afghanistan

American

  1. France
  2. undecided–Italy? England? Australia & New Zealand?
  3. none, really. I’ve already been to the places I consider absolutely essential.

1.) England
2.) It’ll probably end up being Canada. I want to do a Panama Canal cruise, but an Alaska cruise or trip to see friends in Vancouver or Victoria BC is probably the most likely at this point.
3.) Either China or India

Pakistani in Pakistan

  1. November , UAE
  2. Next trip probably UAE again in a month, though might have to rush to both UK and Singapore as well on short notice.
  3. Brazil, Argentina

American in Budapest, Hungary
We were in Austria most recently, but this past year we’ve also been to Slovenia, Jordan and the U.S.

In February, I’ll spend a weekend in London, but the next real trip will be to The Netherlands in April for the flower festivals. Then again to the U.S. in June.

Before I cash in, I’d like to see Peru in general, Machu Picchu in particular.

I’m in the US.

  1. Morocco. It was lovely. I highly recommend it.
  2. I was thinking about Argentina, but … maybe Turkey.
  3. So many places, so little time. I’ve highly romanticized the Silk Road. And I want to cruise the Black Sea. But reading this thread reminds me of everything I want to do someday.

Australian living in the U.S.

  1. Canada – I visited Windsor, Ontario for a couple of hours about 12 weeks ago, while spending a weekend at Detroit and Dearborn, Michigan. One thing that I like about living is being able to drive from home to an international border. You can’t do that in Australia.
  2. Australia probably, either to visit to see my new grandson and my father, or to move there permanently.
  3. Japan.
  1. US (returned two weeks ago)
  2. Barbados (in 6 days)
  3. I don’t know. I find air travel so hard these days that I will not go any real distance, which really limits the possibilities. Maybe Cuba.

Swede living in Stockholm.

  1. Latvia (a couple of weeks ago)

  2. Scotland (in April)

  3. Have no idea

Brit living in the UK.

  1. Denmark (for Christmas)

  2. Hong Kong then Thailand (tomorrow).

  3. I want to go back to Turkey and Japan.
