Have you ever traveled overseas? If so, where did you go?

I visited in Japan two times. The first place was Kyushu and the second was Tokyo.
For me, Kyushu was nicer because Tokyo was very similar with the city Seoul in Korea, where I live in.
I thought I could experience real Japanese culture in Kyushu.
But for people who like thriving town, I recommend Tokyo.

Well, it's just my thinking Wink

And if I had the chance, I would like to travel other countries.
Then, please tell us your story!
Where is the best country you've ever visited? Smile

Hmm, this is a hard question. I hesitate between Canada and the US. I went to Vancouver two years ago and that was absolutely amazing. The landscapes there are beautiful, there are loads of interesting museums and stores...

I like the US too. I went to both NYC and Sarasota (Florida) last month. I didn't like NYC much, but Florida was so great!!!

To sum up, I highly recommend Vancouver and Sarasota Wink

Good old Niagara Falls. But then again I may be biased!

I really liked Berlin. It is such a cool and varied city. I liked all its quirks (naked men sunbathing in parks), loads of bears made out of different materials, and the feeling of space and potential that you get from cities that are being rebuilt.

I've been in various countries: Thailand, Peru, Germany, Holland, Sweden, Finland, Doubai, Spain, England, Ireland, Switzerland, I've travelled all over France and lately I went to India.

I falled in love with India, and with indian people, so nice to strangers.
India is a country full of colours, odours and enchanting places.

I spent a month there and couldn't see all because it's such a big country. I'll try to come back again because India is worthy.

Hi, I'm a Japanese girl.

I had never been to abroad until last summer.
Last summer, I went to India and that was my first experience for travel abroad.
Then all of the things I saw was fresh for me.
I was enchanted by the atmosphere of India!
Especially I moved by the beautiful sight of "Taj Mahal".
That was so magnificent and emotional for me.
I'd like to go India again because I saw only a small part of the India.

Recentry I'm interested in Africa, Switzerland and Turkey.
Please tell me the story if someone who traveled is here!

My favorite place was Munich, Germany. Great city. Nice people. If you ever go, take a day trip to Fussen to see Neuschwanstein Castle. It is amazing and the train trip is a beautiful ride through the Alps.

What a good question!

I seem to like every place I visit. When I am there, I love to explore and learn about the city or country, and it becomes my favorite. Since every place is different, it is hard for me to compare. For example, Italy and Turkey were so different in many ways: food, language, religion, art, and history. I loved them both.

One thing I do find in common: friendly people!
