    US, up and down, mostly. Just not Texas. Don't gimme any ****e, my brother lives there and likes it, so I'll get there in time. Mexico, but not vast distacnes from the border (Mexico is friggin' big). Pretty much all of Europe, 'cept the postage stamps like Luxembourg, etc.

    My favorite places were (besides Paris - nothing beats boning on the banks of the Seine beneath Notre Dam and having an unexpected tourist boat go by, with cheering) more "Eastern Europe". Yugoslavia and Hungary iron curtain style were, as they say, the bomb.

    Got teargassed by the cops at a punk show in Budapest. One of my favorite moments, how often do you get teargassed for having fun? By Commie Cops? Maybe I'm weird, but that was mad cool. By the way, teargas does actually kinda hurt. But can lead to sticking it in and wigglin' it around a little. I'm just sayin'. And one of the most straight-up insane hardcore shows I ever saw. Nothing like knowing the Stasi might come to get yer bollocks ruffled.

    Still, I would like to go a little farther afield. I literally haven't been out of NYC for 15 years for more than 3 days at a shot (twice there, oh , I'm dyin' here), so anywhere would be cool. Had a friend who went on "safari" with his sis, she won some radio contest, and then he ditched 'em and hung out with some normal people in Kenya.

    I don't look for exotic people. I go to somewhere "exotic" and find the regular gits. Maybe not my regular, but just folks, y'know? People I'd talk to anyway.

    I voted no. I have been to 35/40 of the 50 American states and America is as big as all of Europe pretty much. I was so close to going to Canada. I was at Niagara falls.
    I am kinda jealous of my family. My dad was with the NSA and he lived in Lybia, Arabia and Ethiopia in the late 50's early 60's and my mom lived in Morocco, Germany and I think France. My siblings were born in Europe. I feel left out never leaving the USA

    I have traveled from New York ....

    to Paris, Mexico, Canada, California, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Maine, North Carolina, South Carolina, Florida, Virginia, Washington D.C., Akaska, Utah, New Jersey, Pennsylvania...and probably other states I am too tired to remember.

    October 2007 I am scheduled to go to Budapest, Prague and Vienna.

    Would this make me well traveled?

    All I know is that I LOVE to travel and would love to do more.

    I have yet to visit outside of the United States. But in regards to the website that I am on, I have visited downtown Ft. Myers, Sannibel Island, Monroeville, PA, Pittsburgh, PA, Evans City, PA and Wampum, PA, so I figure I am doing pretty good.

    Nascar trips have taken me to Daytona Beach and Homestead, FL, Darlington, SC, Rockingham and Charlotte in NC (also North WIlkesboro), Martinsville and Richmond VA, Bristol, TN, and Loudon, NH.
