Daddy Bear Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 Not too many. United States, duh!, Mexico, and Canada. I have been in most of the fifty states and three provinces. I've lived in Five, no six, states and in British Columbia. I want to see so much more!Ha, I wonder how many times we've passed each other on the road. Link to comment
Up and Down Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 Just for fun. How many countries have you been to in your life? List them if you like. For me it is 21, only 147 to go, Macau . I don't think Macau qualifies as a country. In any case, I have been to the following: England Scotland Wales France Belgium Luxembourg Netherlands Spain Italy Hungary Germany Sweden Norway Italy China (Hong Kong and Macau) Austria Mexico Canada Guyana Greece Dominica Republic I have been to some other territories but since you specified countries I left them out.

melrich Posted July 10, 2008 Author Share Posted July 10, 2008 I don't think Macau qualifies as a country. Well technically it is a colony of Portugal, but many "countries" are colonies. It has it's own government, it's own legal system, it's own army and police force and it's own monetary system so I'm calling it a country but granted, technically it may be known as something else.

It's a special territory of China. It used to be a colony of Portugal but not anymore. Either way it's nice to know there are some well travelled people out there. Link to comment

Anyway when I was there 15 years ago it was a country with it's own passport stamp.....lol.....so I'm counting it. Raises an interesting question though, countries that are no longer countries.

Most places vacation, in South Africa I volunteered at a cheetah project for a month loved it! I loved the middle east too, I want to go back! All so beautiful and the people are sooo friendly especially in Syria! I loved Mexico too, that was the first time I went on a trip all by myself, scary at first but then I didnt want to come back and I met the love of my life there! btw.
