@LilPrincess

Well get out there and see the world!!!
LilPrincess · 41-45, F
@calicuz I would but the app isn't working
I live in Europe so it’s easy for me to go around most of European cities.
My husband and I make sure that we visit a place every summer and to make our son exposed to other places aside from where we live. Also, I’ve been to other parts of Asia too like Hongkong (I love), Singapore, Shenzhen (China) , Taiwan and Indonesia
calicuz · 51-55, M
@BloviatingBuffoon

Same here, I want to expose my son to as many different cultures as possible.
Jeephikelove · 46-50, F
Not enough!

So far…
Southern Sweden (Solvesbërg, Ôland, Malmö, Småland, Kalmar, Högsby, Vimmerby)
All up and down the west coast from the Sunshine Coast, BC to San Diego.
Almost all over Alberta and South half of BC, and some cities in the Northern States from Alberta ➡️ West.
Oahu, Hawaii

calicuz · 51-55, M
@HannibalAteMeOut

Impressive!!!
I have to get to Budapest, myself.
HannibalAteMeOut · 22-25, F
@calicuz it's a very beautiful city, never heard of anyone who didn't like it, plus it's both for quiet/relaxed holidays and for party people. And cheap compared to the surrounding places for what it offers (or was, because this year idk).
calicuz · 51-55, M
@HannibalAteMeOut

Perfect, Budapest just went higher on my list.

@pentacorn

Sea Sickness can be overcome, you have to look at the horizon regularly.
pentacorn · F
@calicuz i've tried that, meds, wristbands, ginger 🤷‍♀️
ninalanyon · 61-69, T
@pentacorn Sometimes you just have to lay face down on your bunk with your eyes shut and suffer for a few hours.
SoLeRiMix · 31-35, M
Lovely!😇👍

Singapore, Malaysia, South Korea, Macau, Thailand, Vietnam, Hong Kong, Indonesia and UAE.😇
calicuz · 51-55, M

Very Impressive, South East Asia is high on my list as well.
SoLeRiMix · 31-35, M
@calicuz Trust me, you'll like East more than West. Though, every country in this world has something unique about it.😇
Ducky · 31-35, F
Just Mexico. No actual cities or towns, just rural communities.
calicuz · 51-55, M
@Ducky

Awesome!!! I have to go back to Mexico, it's been 35 years.
Crazywaterspring · 61-69, M
Spain, France, Italy, Cyprus, Greece, Germany, Saudi, Bahrain, Somalia, Djibouti, Kenya, Pakistan, Diego Garcia (UK), HK, Canada, Mexico, Honduras and the Philippines.

Well, I definitely would like to visit the Philippines, but not for the "advertising." 😅

ninalanyon · 61-69, T
@calicuz I was quite surprised that it was such a long list myself! But it's a bit of a cheat really, several of them I visited only in the course of my job, sometimes for months at a time (USA, Canada, China, Thailand, Finland, Spain, Switzerland, Saudi Arabia), and several others I generally just pass through on my from Norway to the UK even though I have spent a few days or even a week or two in several of them. And I padded the UK out a bit; these days it's not as united as it used to be.
calicuz · 51-55, M
@ninalanyon

It all counts as far as I'm concerned, even just for work. You were there and experienced the culture and the life the people live. You're very blessed to have seen so much of the world.
ninalanyon · 61-69, T
@calicuz Actually the work trips were far better for experiencing the local culture, especially in China.

calicuz · 51-55, M
@BrewCityBarfly

Awesome, I had a 12 hour layover in the Frankfurt airport back in January. By the time I got my bag and found my next gate it was Midnight, so I didn't think I should venture away from the airport. I didn't want to get into any "local trouble."
I still have bad habits. 😅
@calicuz I did a weekend layover in Frankfurt coming back from one of my India trips. I drove down to Heidelberg and spent a day there. It was fun, except I had issues with the time diff, sinus probs from the Indian pollution and weather being drizzly in Germany, and the usual India tummy issues.
calicuz · 51-55, M
@BrewCityBarfly

Yeah I was in Cairo for a week, back in January, for a short vacation, and near the end I noticed the pollution getting to my throat. Beautiful culture there though, very busy city, but no one's in a hurry.
