Going Out and Seeing the World
Basically, this is a thread where we talk about which countries we have visited, and which countries we want to visit, at some point in our lives.
I'll start off. Countries I have been to include, sorted by date of first visit: Australia (obviously), the United Kingdom, New Zealand, Singapore, France, Norway, Thailand, the United Arab Emirates, Germany, Switzerland and Spain. (Although I've never spent a full day in Singapore, Thailand or the UAE, nor have I ever spent a full hour in Germany.) Countries I want to visit at some point include, in alphabetical order: Brazil, Canada, China (both of them), Finland, India, Israel, Japan, the Netherlands, the Philippines, Poland, South Africa, South Korea, the United States and Vietnam.

I've never been out of the USA. That said, I'm going to Paris for a week, from the 21st to the 28th, as part of a school trip.
I would love to travel the world, really. I'm a photographer, its kind of a prerequisite desire.
Vietnam
Yay, somebody wants to go and visit my country!
On topic, I spent much time in New Zealand, since I went there for high school. Really nice place, and the scenery was gorgeous.
I visited the Czech Republic with a school class for a few days. Other than that, I never saw another country and probably won't in the near future.
Still, I'd like to visit other countries some time. At the moment, I'd be most interested in Finland, France, Canada, pretty much everwhere where I can see remains of Aztec and Incan civilization, Japan and China. Only the first two seem at least somewhat realistic, though, being in Europe and all.
I would go to German if given the chance due to having an inexplicable love for the German language and literature.
German: the language in which even "Merry Christmas" sounds like an order of execution.
Oh, and chances are I'll have one more country visited soon. So far it's like five, passing through doesn't count.
↑ Ah, that reminds me — add Poland to my list.
South Africa
People know the place I live in exists!
As for places I'd like to visit... China, the Czech Republic, Canada, Greenland, Iceland, Switzerland and Japan.
First of all, I have obviously been in Denmark. I have been on holidays in Norway, Sweeden and Germany which shouldn't be too surprising since all those countries are really close. In addition to that I have been on holiday in the UK, the Czech Republic and I have been a week to France with my high-school class back in the day. Right now I have been living in Japan for about 10 months, though I'll be returning home soon.
I have also spend a few hours at Austrian and Chinese airports, but I don't really think that counts.
In the future, if possible, I would love to go to China, Russia, the US, India, Italy, Greece, Austria, Iceland, Greenland (a part of Denmark in a manner of speaking), Egypt, Brazil and probably quite a few more places. Realistically all of them are very unlikely to happen.
The U.S., the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, France, Italy, and Ireland(year abroad). However, if I visit other countries in the future, I want to do it in another way or for another purpose than simply going on a vacation there: it feels a tad useless. Teaching abroad might be doable.
I've been to America, England, Belgium, France, and lived extensively in Shanghai and Singapore.
I'd like to tour Europe again one day, go to Australia, and see some other things.
Ugh. I was ready to put a really nice-looking table in the OP, but that would have made it way too long...
Oh, heck. I'll put it on my Dropbox and link to it in the OP. You guys should probably look over it and tell me if it's correct or not.
Outside the US, I've been to...
Places I want to visit...hmm...there are a lot of them
I'll type them out later.
I've been to Mexico and Jamaica before. I'd like to visit Canada, Germany, the United Kingdom and possibly Japan, though that last bit is more about learning about learning about certain historical aspects than the typical "weeaboo pilgrimage."
I've been to US, Chile, Argentina and almost every city in Colombia. That's about it.
I want to go to Canada, England, Germany and Egypt.
US and Canada. That's about it. =| It was always kind of embarrassing in college when all my (much richer) friends talked about where they'd been around the world.
In any case, I'd love to go to England, France, Germany, Denmark, Switzerland, Iceland, Italy, China, Japan, Cuba, Venezuela, and probably more places if I ever got the chance.
I suppose Canada, Ireland and Japan are three countries I'd like to visit. I'll probably think of more later.
Why do people want to go to England but not to the rest of the UK? oO
I've been to Spain (twice), Portugal, USA (twice) and France. I guess I want to go to Germany, the Low Countries, Canada and Austria.
I live in America.
I was born in India, and live in America. Most of my family is still in India, though it's been a while since I last visited.
In this order: Montenegro (although it still wasn't independent when I visited it, so I don't know if it counts), Bulgaria, Macedonia (only passing through by car), Greece, Romania.
I haven't been outside of the Balkan Peninsula, unfortunately.
Incidentally, for those wanting to visit Italy, I strongly suggest starting your stay in the small town of Bellagio. Best place on the planet to recover from jet lag.
I've live in the US(although living in Phoenix and Milwaukee have both been very different experiences), briefly been in Canada and Mexico on vacations and went to Germany for a month on a school trip. I wouldn't mind going back to Germany and hitting up some other countries in the EU, but I dunno, time and commitments and stuff. Maybe Japan and China if I could find a way to plot out the most efficient way to look at the architectural sites.
I've visited France, Germany, Italy, Morocco, Belgium and Sweden. Also Monaco, if you count that as a separate country.
I keep telling myself I'll visit the US one day.
I'd like to visit Battleship Island off the coast of Japan, if only for the potential for a look at a possible post-appocalyptic environment. The closest thing we have to that where I live is Centralia, PA, though the possible carbon monoxide poisoning that results wouldn't be pleasant.
I've only been in Italy and Andorra.
I want to visit a fuckton of countries
I've been to Australia.
You do not wanna be in Australia.
I went to Singapore on the way there and the Phillippines on the way back though
My parents went to Mexico when I was still 4. Can't remember much about it
I've been to Venezuela (naturally) and the US. Would like to visit France, Canada, Japan, China, and...
I've been to the states (Hawaii and Utah, specifically)
I want to go to Japan, Scotland, Australia, South America (Likely Brazil for a specific country), and England, not necessarily in that order
Updated the table. It has now surpassed 40 kilobytes in size, apparently.
You guys are all so lucky. I've never even been outside Australia.
