Where in the world have you been?
« on: May 26, 2012, 07:13:19 PM »
Recently, there has been a lot of talk in The Front Porch about where you have traveled to, so I decided that a new thread would be fitting. Use this link to create your own map.

Here's mine:



I'll soon be traveling through Virginia to get to Washington, DC for a school trip this October.

I feel so sheltered.  :cry3:  :P I haven't been anywhere outside of the South except NJ, but I was only 3 so I virtually I have no memory of that family vacation besides a few pictures, but I included it since I technically have been there.

In the U.S., I've visited 19 states.  I was debating or not whether to include Georgia because I was technically there but only passing through the Atlanta Hartsfield Jackson Airport.  My dad's rule for whether or not to include a state on your "visited" list is if you've spent money there.  I don't remember spending any money (even for food), so I have left it off. :P

BTW, you do see that Hawaii is shaded, but I don't remember it as I was only 6 months old at the time. :lol:  I'm still counting it but feel I need to see the western U.S. more.



My world travels are not too impressive.  Just U.S. (obviously), United Kingdom, and France.

Down the Space Coast, Miami, and the Keys for me. Also have family down there I regularly visit. You know, looking back at my map now, I have no clue why I visited Montana.  :rofl2:

Well, I have grandparents who live in Naples, FL (which is an hour south of Ft. Myers), so I go there every spring break.  I have also been to Disney World twice, the Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral, Daytona Beach, and Destin.

Been stuck in the northwestern US all my life. Wish I could go to other places, but I always can't afford it  :no:
