Virginia Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 Well, since my family isn't rich like all of yours, I've only been to a few places and that's probably it for my entire life. Wisconsin Tennessee (twice in 2000) and I've been to Illinois plenty of times Pretty pathetic right? Oh well. Maybe some day I'll get a European family who is rich and lets me travel on my own to another country. I'm definitely not rich either. Italy was actually work related travel; as were my west coast states. 3-4 states were marching band trips in HS too. In hindsight, if I were in my early 20s again, I would get a job on a small cruise ship as a bartender, cabin steward etc. That's a great way to see places while you earn money And I definitely would have done study abroad; I can't believe I didn't do that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Footsteps of Dawn Posted January 20, 2011 Author Share Posted January 20, 2011 Whoa, I started a thread? Funny, it seems like I never start threads, even when I used to post more often. Well, I'd add some new ones into the original post, but it's not letting me edit it (too old, I guess), so here goes. British Columbia (I forgot I went there...I went through Vancouver on the way to Alaska a long time ago. I don't really remember much about it; I'd love to go back.) Kentucky (Went to Louisville, Lexington, Berea, and points along I-65 on the way back to TN. Visited my great-aunt, who lives in Lexington.) Michigan (Haven't actually gone yet, but I'm going to go in March.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Electrophile Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 I'd love to go to Australia, but seeing as it would require me to get on an airplane, that'll never happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Electrophile Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 It would still require me to get on a plane to fly somewhere the boat is leaving from to get to Australia. I don't fly. So it's a moot point, like I said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manderlyh Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 I cannot believe I haven't posted in this thread! Okay, I haven't traveled a lot, but I have traveled. Most of these have been drive-throughs, not trips. (As in, I drove across Kansas on my way to Oklahoma.) Most of my vacationing has been centered in the Western US--and I've been in most of the Western States multiple times. 1. Idaho (home state) 2. Oregon 3. Nevada 4. California 5. Utah 6. Wyoming 7. Montana 8. Washington 9. Colorado 10. Kansas 11. Missouri 12. Illinois 13. Minnesota 14. Georgia 15. Virginia 16. Maryland 17. Washington, D.C. (if that counts...) 18. Massachusetts 19. New Hampshire 20. Vermont 21. New York (upstate only, not NYC) 22. British Columbia, Canada 23. Germany: all over Okay, the list doesn't look too bad. I've been to 21/50 states.
