Where would you like to visit?

Which countries in the world would you really like to
visit?

for me it would be chile or peru

or china or vietnam or japan

everyone seems to go to australia but i'm not too bothered
about visiting there..

Also, which countries have to been to?

I've been to

Greece- Food didn't live up to expectations, nice dark girls
mmm. A bit of a shithole in some places

Ireland- I visited dublin and at the time wasn't too
impressed. I was more impressed that I stayed in a swanky
castle style hotel and clocked up room service cos we
weren't paying! however I think if I went now, now i'm older
i'd really like it. I want to explore more
Italy- I have only really seen the mountains, but its a
pretty cool place and I found the locals to be nice.

america- I dunno, I went to New York and thought that was
great but went to SF and thought that was absolutely
brilliant for completely different reasons...yosemite
national park is amazing

turkey-when I went I was 9, and thought it was a shithole
that gave you the shits with everything you ate and was full
of blind people trying to steal your money. I think now i'm
a bit more cultured and older (!?!?) i'd like it more and
would like to explore its archaeological remains

germany- because I was shit at german for my exams by
parents packed me off on a plane to stay with one of my
father work colleagues families. I can't believe they moan
about english weather, it rained nearly ever day I was
there! however, I did see the two most beautiful girls i've
ever seen in my life who were twins...mmmm

france- I've been to france loads of times and remember it
quite nostalgically from my childhood....those beautiful
chataeus, good food, lovely scenery. I like the south near
St Tropez (we used to get Gites) but I prefer hte Loire I
think

belgium-hmm, well what can I say...a LOT of muddy flat
fields that go on...and on..quite industrial and weather
always been miserable when i've been. Good chocolate though
and the pissing boy statue in brussels rules

I remember as a kid I saw that on timmy mallets show and HAD
to see it!

switzerland- woah, the entrance to switzerland through all
those winding roads and sheer valleys is excellent! i'd love
to explore it more than I did.

spain-didn't reckon much to the area we stayed in on the
coast, but if you look you can find some GREAt places to
eat, I love paella. I ate in a place in st Sebastian that
gave me the best meal of my life, just a platter of beef
that was bloody with plenty of cider from casks to wash it
down..barcelona is cool if a bit touristy, but that's
expected and that house of Gaudi's is truly mad!

hungary-I visited budapest a few years ago and although
spending quite a bit of time in the hotel room, I did go off
on my own and explore the city. first of all I thought it
was very ex-commie (ie falling to pieces) but by the end
thought it was wonderful, with really beautiful
buildings...it is my aim to get an apartment there in the
future

andorra-this tiny tax free place in the middle of the
mountains is really weird, when I went it was pissing it
down so we didn't stay long, lots of tobacco plantations..

austria-hmm, not really scene anything, only driven through

and that conludes my brief facto-rant. please,
contributions!

well, I would love to go to Australia, and tour Europe...

I haven't been out of North America, but I've been all over
North America quite a bit... I've been to Florida four
times, Disney World each time!!! Well, I drove to Florida
one time so I've been through each state along the eastern
seaboard... I've been to Chicago, Milwaukee, I went to Maine
for a little trip one time... I've been to Toronto, Ottawa,
Montreal, Halifax and in each province from Newfoundland to
Ontario... that's about it for me...

I visited a friend in Iceland when I was 11 or so and that
country was so magnificent so I want to go back.

I would also like to go back to New York City because I
haven't been there in a very long time.

I would like to visit::

Egypt::The pyramids man!!!
I love the ancient Egyptian culture , fashinating stuff.

Iceland::Great nature and great nightlife (ive heard)
Im very curious about that country , its part of scandinavia
but very anonymous.
My dad was there a couple of weeks ago and he loved it , he
bought beautiful handmade clothes there.

Italy::Rom::The food the art the culture!!!!
I have to see Michelangelos famous roof painting before i
die!!

London::The clubbs!!!

I have been to::
Mallorca , Cyprus, Turkey , Denmark , Finnland.
The only place i didn't like was Turkey!!!
Small portions of food at the resturants , annoying people
trying to hussle you all the time.

Cyprus was crazy.
I was in Aya Napa , britts everywhere!!!! UK Garage
everywhere!! even on the beach daytime , with MC's and all.
Great clubs , often me and my mates where the only white
people at the clubbs , it was all black brittish people.
One club "Insomnia" opened 04:00 and was open til whenever ,
everybody gathered there at the end.
Another place "Reagy Bar"was a set of pools with three bars
, drunk people bathing with their clothes on and even having
sex in the water.Quite disscusting but when your fucked up
you don't care =)

Funkmaster: But never to British Columbia? :( *sniff sniff*

I've been to

Alberta: very nice prarie land. very flat. lots of farms
and oil rigs pumping up oil from the groud. i was there
visiting family (as you may have known from this year) and
one said theres like a thousand or so rigs scattered all
across alberta.

Saskatchewan: I don't remember too much of it. it was a
long time ago and we were there for a short trip to attend a
funeral. then we went back.

Washington: too long ago and i can't remember.

Oregon: way long ago and remember nothing.

Id actually like to tour canada and make it all the way to
Newfoundland or New Brunswick. Thats if i can physically
and mentally make it past Manitoba after a week of prarie
driving lol. Oh boy...

once you hit ontario it should all be good.

LOVE to visit europe and see where my fav artists live too!

Its not always cold , we have summers here to .
In Sweden Norway and Finnland theres a big differense in
weather depending on how far north you are.
In sweden for example we have reindeers and a people that
resembles the Eskimos up in the north but in the south we
have beaches and a warmer climat (not very warm compared to
other warm European countries though)

Nature in scandinavia is great , but the best nature in my
opinion is in Norway.
The nature there is breath taking
Many movies are recorded there because of that (snow scenes
in starwars for example)

No norwegians don't drink everyday haha!!
But us scandinavians drink very much when we drink , it has
always been that way , its a viking thing haha!! .
The Finnish people drink the most!!!
I remember drinking and playing cards with two finnish guys
a couple of years ago , they drank ful beer glasses of vodka
straight up all night !!! Insane!!!!

All the best dj's and electronica artists make it a top
priority to tour/do gigs in Japan, which is really cool,
since Tokyo is one of the clubbing capitals of the world.

Also one of my favourite dj's ever came from Japan itself. .
. his name is Satoshi Tomiie, and now as a dj and a producer
he's worldfamous!
