Here's mine, though to be honest I forget if it was Estonia or Latvia I visited.
And Germany was just a few rest stops on a charter bus to France.

All the states I've visited are highlighted: California (live here), Arizona, Nevada, and Utah.

I've been everywhere in California besides the Bay Area and north of Sacramento.

Nevada I've been to Las Vegas and Reno, not much else to see in that state.

Arizona I've been to Phoenix once a long time ago when I was a kid and the Nevada/Arizona border where the edge of the Grand Canyon is.

Utah I just recently went in 2022 to Salt Lake City. That's the furthest I've ever been from home.

I guess it was a long time ago, but how was the grand canyon?

The country I've been to the most times is probably Finland, via weekend cruises to Helsinki. I've also been on quite afew daily cruises to the Åland islands, but I don't really count those times as I didn't exit the boat (the boat ride itself is the main event).

Been to London twice, but the last time was about ten years ago.
Would like to visit Scotland, the Netherlands, Belgium, Ireland, New Zealand, the US and Japan some time. Not on the same trip of course.

The ones that stand out to me are:

Arizona has a very unique and pleasant climate. It can get ridiculously hot though depending on the season

New York City is full of energy and is never boring

Virginia has beautiful forests

Too lazy to color in.

I've been to Canada and Thailand besides the USA (obviously lol). Also I've gone to the Florida Keys / parts of the Bahamas as a kid during a cruise. I had a layover in Japan, but never exited the airport.

For the states: I've been to Missouri, Illinois, Kansas, Arkansas, Florida, New York, New Jersey, Pensilvania, Washington DC, California, and Washington State. There might be a few others as I've gone on two road trips to NYC / Florida, but I was just passing through them via car or bus.

maverick · April 01, 2024, 01:22:16 PM

Tried to make this as accurate as I could. Anything more than a layover, I put in green.

If Niagara Falls counts, I've been to Canada.

It was beautiful, but we didn't stay for long because it was really hot. Arizona in the summer is an entirely different beast when it comes to heat.

Nope with her son but her Lebanon venture was with her new husband.

Might fly them to Switzerland or Sweden next once she organizes for the grandma to look after her newborn daughter for 3 weeks.

Sounds like she's scamming you man. Why would you do this?

America, that's it

OnionBeetle · April 05, 2024, 03:29:42 PM

What a wonderful index of stories and memories! You've all been bitten by the travel bug I see! Jealous I am and bon voyage one and all haha! Oh and I've been around too and plan to make other travels also if I can

It's good to get in the sun and even better to get over it!

Will Smith once quoted "If you're not making someone else's life better than your life is worth less"
Not sure if that's 100% identical to the original quote but you get the idea.

When I first read it, it hit me hard! Life is not about me, rather who I / we care about.

I want her to have the best life possible even if I don't get to be a part of it. #simpforlife

Literally only left America once to go to pre-9/11 canada.
Never had a passport in my life.
