Which countries have you visited? Which countries are on your list to visit?
USA.
I spent the Aussie winters over in New Jersey working at a summer camp. Those summers are right up there with the absolute best times of my life.
EUROPE
In 2002 my friend was living in the UK, so before camp another friend and I went and visited her, and then bummed off over to explore France, Spain, Italy, Austria, Switzerland, Germany and the Netherlands.In 2004 I spent a couple of months in Europe with my boy and a couple of our (male) friends. This trip (besides including way too much soccer for my liking... Liverpool, Man U, Barcelona as well as the Euro Cup Finals) included the UK, Portugal, Spain, France, Italy, Greece, Austria, Switzerland, Germany and the Netherlands. Highlights of this trip included spending a week sharing a tiny room that barely fit 2 single beds in it with 4 boys, spending a week in Amsterdam with bronchitis and a night in France where I was so drunk I was insisting that I had to fly home straight away. I don't think I've ever been that drunk since. (Note my sarcasm with the last few sentences.... as with everything, the really really bad bits really stick with you. And trust me - sharing a room with 4 boys is bad. Especially when those boys have been drinking, were all smokers and snorers. It was tough.)
2006 had a trip to Germany for the World Cup. This was the boy's part of the trip, as before this we spent 10 days in
EGYPT
I need to go back when it isn't the middle of their summer. 50C days kind of take the fun out of spending hours wandering around temples and examining the carvings and paintings.
ASIA
In most of our Europe trips we've included 3 or 4 days in Singapore.
2007 we spent 2 weeks in Thailand for our honeymoon.
There are so many places I want to go back to, and even more that I want to see! I'd love to get to New Zealand and South Africa (or any of Africa really). I would like to see more of Asia - I particularly would like to go to China. I'd like to see more of Greece, Egypt again, more of the US, I want to see Canada.... there's probably very few places I don't want to see.
