COUNTRIES GALORE

[MasterKeyX]

Mexico is nice. I would love to go to some Aztec/Mayan ruins there. When we were in Cancun [me and my family] they offered it as a tour, but it was too expensive for us.

[Takun]

I was going to put Russia on my list but ran out of space  

[MasterKeyX]

Russia is an amazing country. There are literally hundreds of things to go see.

[Takun]

So I hear. I did a small report on it once.

Alas, I've never been outside of the U.S.
I've actually never even been outside of the state of Florida.

I know you all want to go to England just to see me, I don't blame you.
Anyway this was kinda hard as I want to go EVERYWHERE:

-Togo - During the football world cup, I chose a random country to cheer for because I didn't want to support England, actually I chose the one with the funniest sounding name. Anyway they lost all their matches because they started arguing about who was getting payed while they were playing, but gained me as a life long fan, I'd love to go there.

-Italy - I've been there a couple of times, but would love to see more of it, especially the art.

-Cuba - Just to see those building tall pictures of my idol, plus it looks gorgeous, hot weather, sand, clear seas, yum.

-Kuwait - Some of my family lives over there and I've always wanted to visit.

-A Random South pacific island - Yeah, I've been watching too much shipwrecked but I would love to spend some time on one of those gorgeous islands, don't mind which one. I'm a sucker for heat and the sea.

There are a bunch of other countries too, but nowhere landlocked, it's weird, maybe because I've lived by the sea my entire life but when I went to Austria I hated it because I just couldn't see the sea anywhere, and I knew it wasn't there if you know what i mean. Just mountains.
I also want to go to the Galapagos Islands, Sierra Leone, Japan, Iceland, Greenland, Greece, Brazil and a million more places.

[Takun]

We're the same when it comes to wanting to go everywhere, but on the climate conditions, we're different. For example, I despise the heat, down here in Florida it's about 85 degrees ALL year, winter included. And then it gets to the 90s when summer hits and sometimes touches 100-105. Not the hottest place in the world, but I hate it none-the-less.

Japan- Huge anime otaku and I'm learning Japanese, so lots of practice.

Portugal- Lots of heritage there. I'm about 80% Portuguese.

France- Been there before and I've been lusting to go back. It was beyond beautiful and wonderful there.

Brazil- I have some relatives there, rather distant ones, mind you. One of my grandpa's brothers moved there rather than to America.

England- Went there in a joint trip to France. I really like the feel of that place.

[Takun]

Is it true that foreign countries like France are rude to Americans? Im no racist and Im sure it sounds stereotypical but Im curious as to weather the rumors are true.

[MasterKeyX]

I've never been there, but my girlfriend has been. She didn't complain of any rudeness, so I think not.

[Fishalicious]

Italians hate Americans, but they love Texans.

Of course, that's only from what I've heard from our family friend Jim.

[Baka Nezumi]

Not in my experience. In fact, the average person seemed more willing to chat than the average person here. Although, they hate Bush with a passion. An intense passion.

[Takun]

Well who doesn't?

[alical]

I've never experienced any rudeness while in France for being British, and in history Britain and France didn't really get along. In my experience the French are very rude in queues though, always shoving in. And Italians are very vicious drivers.
But they're lovely people anyway, nicer than British people.
I find British people very unhospitable and sometimes quite rude to foreigners.

The nicest people I've ever met are Americans actually, they were very sweet when I went to America.

Japan: It's a fascinating country where ancient culture and cutting-edge technology blend together. Plus I'd like to pick me up a whole bunch of video games and consoles I can't get in the States easily.

Like that Tingle game with a really long name? (I'd actually like to get it, too. I don't like ordering stuff over the internet)

Nah, that's not really my kind of game. What I'm thinking of is more along the lines of a cool Japanese Saturn (they cost a fortune in shipping from Japan), games which are much cheaper to purchase the Japanese version of (Panzer Dragoon Saga is a perfect example) and some games I can't easily get in America (mainly some obscure titles that pretty much nobody outside of Japan has played/heard of, like a train simulation game they had).

[Takun]

Yeah I agree, I've seen American movie remakes and they pretty much suck. And then there's the game factor, for example, Nintendo said that Pokemon Diomond and Pearl were the last hand held pokemon games. Yet all over the internet there are pictures of two new Japanese pokemon games. It may be a fluke, but since Nintendo is Japan based, they have authority over whether or not the game goes to America.
