Only five.

. And i will, for sure. I realllllly want to go to Japan!

haha better than none. How different is it from China?
I love to travel and I think for 17 years I've got a nice list already:
Germany - my home country (16years)
USA / Texas - 1 year as exchange student
France - 1 week exchange + vacation
England - vacation
Australia - best vacation EVER!
( Austria - vacation, well it's almost like Germany )
Oh yeah, and Singapur for like 2 hours at the airport 
Okay:
England Lived here = 35+ years
Scotland lived there = 3 years
France = Holiday
Holland = Holiday
Germany = Holiday
Spain Mainland = Holiday
Spanish Islands (Menorca)= Holiday
Greek Islands (Kefalonia) = Holiday
USA (21 of the states) = Holiday(s) I love it there.
Places I would like to visit include and probably will - the USA again and Italy.
Places I might like to visit but probably never will - Canada (although I would really like to), Mexico, China, Japan, India, Africa, Greece again (Kefalonia - a beautiful island).
There are lots of places in South America, Europe and Scandanavia in particular where I quite fancy but finances would prevent me visiting them but you never know!

TribalArt says he lived on The Isle of Wight which does not count as its part of England. TribalArt gets 9/10 where as everyone else gets 10/10 the The Isle of Wight is definitely cheating.
Also someone asked why am I asking about which countries they have visited.
Well I was actually interested but I was also interested where you were blogging from. I mean if someone had emailed me from a country I had lived in (2 months and above) I would be interested tohear about that, My top 5 countriws in order are. England (60 million pop).Canada(30 million pop), Holland (15 million pop)Falkland Islands(3 thousand pop)Germany(80 million pop)Dominica (50 thousand pop).
I would have liked to have heard from someone who had lived in Falkland Islands(3 thousand pop) or Dominica (50 thousand pop) the most. 
Slovenia (where I live)
Austria
Italy
Hungary
Germany
Croatia
Serbia
Montenegro
I think that is all 
- Germany (I live here)

... and some other while I've been on a cruise. Too bad I don't remember which countries I visited on that cruise.
I need to travel more...

My list:
Ukraine: 7 years

I like one chapter of the Tao that somehow talks about knowing the world.
| Quote: |
47. Pursuit of Knowledge
Without stepping outside one's doors,
One can know what is happening in the world,
Without looking out of one's windows,
One can see the Tao of heaven.
The farther one pursues knowledge,
The less one knows.
Therefore the Sage knows without running about,
Understands without seeing,
Accomplishes without doing. |

Mostly, I want to see South America. I want to see the rain forest and be someplace where it is WARM.
I have been to just about everywhere in the US, though.

Yeah, that's pretty much every country I've been to. I intend to visit every continent before I die, including Antartica.
I've been to:
Australia
I live here, and always have
We're all easy going down here, and it's widely regarded as having one of the highest standard of living in the world.
Denmark
My Dad's side of my family come from here, and I visit every two or three years. There's a lot of culture, and it's a very clean country (mostly due to the high taxes - but free public transport, University, etc). I'm considering doing a GAP year, to benefit off the free University and renew my citizenship.
Italy
The drivers here are CRAZY. I went in a campavan, and the Vespa bikes buzz around you, running into your rearview mirror, no fear of anything.
France
I was young when I went here, so I can't really remember much about the country. I remember I was scared when going up the Eiffel Tower though
A place I really want to visit is the USA. Could anybody here tell me the pros and cons of the country?
Hmm. Let me think ...
England (it's where I'm from)
Scotland (went there once)
Wales (went there once)
Canaries (a couple of holidays)
France (booze-cruise, travelled through)

Your life is so wonderful,I live in my mothercountry from I was born.and have not visit a foreign country yet.I hope I can visit USA and Frence some day in the future,but now that is only a dreaming because I am still a college student.
I've only visisted three: Belize (in Central America), the Bahamas (Nassau specifically), and just came back from a trip over spring break to Barcelona, Spain. All insanely gorgeous, amazing places to be--I highly recommend going to any one of them. In a few months I'll be in Amsterdam for nine days for a school-related thing so that should be neat.
I've lived in Sweden, US, Colombia. I've also visited Spain.
Just came back from Spain. Back to the sun XP Yes, really, we just saw the sun once.
I've never been outside the United States. In fact, I've never even been off the east coast, though I've been as far north as Massachusetts and as far south as Florida.
Someday I want to drive cross-country. I think it'd be a lot of fun.

Erin Go Braugh! I was born in Belfast, and I have lived in the US (currently, 27 years), Montreal (Canada), and small stays worldwide while in the armed forces....but nothing beats home
Can we have a Gaelic forum Ciamar a tha sibh Bondings?
Possibly Ghalidhlig an-diugh? (Gaelic today).
We have our own holiday, should we not have out own forum?
I have lived in the USA all my life, but I will go to china for the Bejing pre-Olympics in 2008 after i graduate high school, I can't wait for that! I hope our translator is real good at Chinese.
Here's my list.
- Australia.
Sob, sob, I've never left Australia, even on holiday. Because it's just that awesome. Sucks to be you, non-Australians! 
I'm very envious of all of you who have travelled so extensively.
I live in Canada, and have visited:
Germany, Belgium, Holland, Austria, Switzerland, France
U.S., Mexico
Costa Rica, Chile, Venezuela
That's it!
I live in Australia, as is obvious, and until this year I hadn't been anywhere else, now I have been in Thailand and Singapore, I hope to go to Canada this year, and so does my father.

That seems pretty extensive to me...
Hmmm... I've only ever gone to Mexico for a day.... and Canada... for a day...
Other than that I've lived in the U.S. all my life, and haven't left it much... I have traveled around most of Michigan, and to a few states on the coast...
Though hopefully next summer I'm going to be able to go to Germany for a while with some friends.
Should prove interesting since I'm the only one out of the group that knows a little bit of German, enough to get us by on the basics. 
| reddishblue wrote: |

I guess it's just that I wish I could travel more ... and most places up there I've visited quite some time ago.
I've never been to Australia nor any of the Asian countries.
Some day, maybe when I win a lottery ... !
Traveling can be very cool, but nothing beats coming home.
Wow! some of you are very well-travelled!
I live in Canada, have been to the States a few times. Overseas I've been to Holland, and France(Paris) (and Belgium, if you count that we drove through there to get to Paris!)
We also went to Australia 3 years ago for 4 weeks, and that was amazing! By far my favorite destination.
About 5 countries,
But Turkey and South Africa are MY favorite!!!
I've been living in only one and traveled to no other country as well..
Fact is that I love travelling and visiting new places and meeting new people, but unfortunately that has not materialised.. 
I live in Finland

I seriously think that I have one of the smallest countries of birth here, if not the smallest. Anyway, once I actually get to college and graduate, I want to go at least some places. I know that a lot of people think that way, and that it doesn't often happen, but it would be nice to see someplace really different.

I dont meant to stand for any political views. Just curious about what people really think about it.. anyways it's off this topic.
Envy those who have such long lists...

I haven't been to that many places but I've been to Mexico, Puerto Rice, Bahamas, and i live in the usa.
I mostly visited out of country places when i was on vacation on some cruises. There are some really beatiful places once you leave away from where your from. I had the the most on my cruises that I've been on before, I recommend that everyone should go. I remember We was stopped at an island and we had bought jewelry and then went to eat and accidently left our stuff their, was horrible but a good experience none the less.
If you can ever afford it in your lifetime you shoud go no matter what .
Hey ppl!
Ok, so i recently went around Europe for part of my Summer vacation! Although that was only for two weeks. The countried i have been to are:
Norway
France

.lol)
Syria
Iran
Tunisia
Morocco
Saudi Arabia
Lebanon
Egypt
And i live in the United Kingdom!
Although there are two countries i really want to go to! India and China (and the far east in general)!! Hopefully next summer! :
Even i enjoy to travel a lot
My home town is in India.
Till now i have just travelled to U.S.A. for quiet some time.
U.S.A. -> Sunrise, Florida
U.S.A. -> New Jersy
U.S.A. -> NYC
Then toured to Canada and other small places. I loved Florida just becos of one reason that the Climate in Florida is very similar to to the Climate in my home town.
The Best thing i found gud in U.S. is the Life Style that U.S. offers to people. I think no other country can offer that. But during my stay i missed my country a lot. Now that i have returned back to my country, iam very happy and enjoying a lot. I see my parents - friends - my buddies - alllllLLlllll and all the more, I see my PEOPLE
.
Having FUN BACK In India
KEEP SMILING - KEEp LiviNG !!!!!

on a sidenote, surprisingly, almost no one in Japan speaks english, that was a shock for me. Kinda made it a fun experience at the same time though.
I have lived in 3 countries (spending several years in each) but onlyin Europe.
I have visited something like 20 countries I guess.
In the future I will probably live in 1 or 2 more countries.
