I can give you a tour of Brooklyn :D lol, my stepdad was from Queens. He used to always talk about it.I would like to visit US. Where in US should I start?horgen123New York City. Its one of the most culturally diverse cities in the world :D The city that never sleeps.
I would like to visit US. Where in US should I start?horgen123Hawaii is nice :P What would you go for? A city? Pretty stuff? Grand Canyon? It all depends, the US is huge and varied.
I'd love to go to Greece and Japan.....been to most of Western Europe already...Omni-Slash
[QUOTE="horgen123"]I would like to visit US. Where in US should I start?wstfldI'd do an East Coast run if I were you. Do a city for a couple days, hop on a train and you'll be in the next city a few hours later. I'd go Boston=>NYC=>Philly=>Washington. yeah, but don't do it in winter. it's cold man
Texas is like a different country too >_>If you want to visit a whole different planet, you can always visit Kali.

SouthEast Asia: Indonesia, Malaysia, and Polynesian Islands like Vanuatu, Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia, and Laos. Not to mention Micronesian Islands too. I feel that not even westerners truly know about these placesand it is about as foreign a place as you can go in this planet as an American and feel like you've left earth. I am not really interested in Europe at all as a place to explore in wonderment. Europe is utterly familiar. I feel like I know almost nothing about Southeast Asia and it is a shame because it is one interesting place.
Canada (The Great North): Northern Lights and a place to escape the hectic life away from the world.
China and its mystic fantasy feel, now combined with some of the best-looking cityscapes in the world.
Czech Republic for its grandiose architecture and Prague.
Finland looks such an awesome place to relax.
Germany for its 20th century history and the autobahn.
Japan for its culture and design that seems like it existed out of someone's crazy dream.
I would love to explore the entire world if I had the chance though.
I remember when I was younger and it'd be the winter, rainy, cold and early morning and just before I'd head off to walk to school there was a TV commercial advertising a vacation to America and it showed like some canyons and some other beautiful things, so I'd love to go there an experience that :P The commercial had perfect timing :P happened numerous times just as I was walking towards the door to leave... Brainkiller05O_O Never occurred to me there'd be America commercials! lulz

Places may look slightly different.. people may talk slightly different.. they might have weird customs.. but every place is pretty much the same.
I think you would end up dissapointed honestly... most of EU is pretty much like most of the northern US... It is nice, different customs, different languages, but it is so familier that it is not even funny... They eat alot of the same, drink alot of teh same.
Might be my view of it all that has turned kind of grey, I grew up in Denmark, UK, German and Belgium (the EU schoolsystem for people who worked in the EU)
When I joined Collage and Uni tho, it became really interresting because the EU pays for you to stury places like Russia and China (I took the humanistics lines of collage and University, and had the EU pay for boarding and education, in Ukraine, Russia and China) those places had a huge impact on me unlike the different European countries, and while It was interresting to see the places that are NOT tourist traps, I was never as happy about little old Denmark then when I came home, to what we usually take for given.
Kinda ironic that I got drafted shortly after comming home tho -.-

I totally agree. I had been to Europe which was cool, but overall it was pretty much like visiting another city in the US only slight differences. W/ South East Asia there's a definite culture shock going on. It's like every day, and every area is completely new. Food is stuff you've never heard of, hell even most of the fruit is alien. Also vacationing in southeast Asia is much cheaper, and nicer than anywhere else. They've got the best beaches in the world, and everything cost a fraction of what you'd pay in the Caribbean.
Also I'd suggest starting off in major tourist areas of Thailand or Malaysia to ease your way into it. It can be bit much to just drop into a rural area of South East Asia.
I have always wanted to visit Canada, Greece, Australia, Japan, Amsterdam, Brazil, and Germany.... ...actually I have been invited on trips to these places I am just to terrified to get on a plane.clayrondude, Canada is close. Anyway, planes aren't scary. True story: On my way to my marriage/honeymoon, I vomited like 5 times both on the plane and in various airports. Lesson: Don't have bachelor party the night before 14 hours of flying (especially when there's stops in the middle) and only get 1 hour of sleep =O

I do not enjoy going up and I abhor going down, keep it PG children,....which I am currently working on with a friend who is studying a Master's of Psychology or something. He is trying to see if he can effectively apply what he is learning to a person with a widely irrational phobia. But I honestly think its more of a fear from loss of control. If I get in a plane I am completely at the mercy of the Pilot and his/her crew. There is nothing I could do should things go ape ****. Thats why I prefer to travel by bus, car, or train - I can get off at any time. Or by boat - absolutely love being out on the sea, plus I can swim if the situation calls for it. However, being in the air...just up there locked in a metal tube until someone decides its time for me to get off...it does not sit well with me. If I can get over myself I may be able to enjoy to pleasures associated with transalantic travel.

I am planning on starting off with small flights between my city and las vegas...I heard it is a short trip, about an hour or maybe its two. I can not recall. But I will be introducing myself to flying slowly over the next few years...unless some job I get forces me to get on a plane to relocate.
[QUOTE="t3hrubikscube"]I've always had a major burning desire to see Clayron. I'd also like to go to Italy, Norway, and Greece.clayronOh my, well I am flattered.:oops: You know how I love you!
