Where dya come from, where dya go?

I was just wondering where everybody lives and where has everybody travelled to? I live in South Wales (that's in the UK) and I've been to Spain on a water sports holiday, France on a skiing holiday and New York. All have been with school and college. Skiing was awesome, so much fun and New York was awesome too. I got a guy who worked on a boat thing that goes past the statue of liberty in loads of trouble for being racist towards us Welsh. I almost got arrested for trying to buy cigarettes with my British drivers licence as well. The shop keeper had never seen a British drivers licence before and tried to "confiscate" it off me and I snatched it back off him and he caused a commotion. It was my luck that there were officers in the shop at the time to make the situation worse.

That aside. Where's everybody been?

I live in western Canada, right on the border and about forty-five minutes from Vancouver. I've been all across Canada and all the northern American states. Also to California. Next year I'm going to the Dominican Republic and the year after I'm going to Australia.

Tibs · 07-12-2006, 04:41 PM

I live in England. Been to Florida, Grand Canaria, Ireland, Germany, France, Holland, Belgium and the Isle of Wight.

What parts of Wales and did you like it?

whorlichan · 07-12-2006, 06:06 PM

Born in Israel...moved like 8 times because my dad was in the Air Force. The ones I remember are Kibbutz Beit Zera near the Sea of Galilee, my maternal grandmother's house in Kiryat Haim on one side of Haifa and my paternal grandmother's house in Kiryat Bialik on the other side of Haifa.

Moved to Los Angeles when I was 5, and moved around 3-4 times within a 10-mile radius. Lived in the same house from 1994 to 2004, and my family still lives there.

Moved to Philadelphia in 2004 and still live here.

Been to: California (duh), Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico, Illinois (not by choice!), New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania (duh again), Texas (never out of the airport), Colorado (ditto), France, England, Amsterdam, Belgium, Israel (obviously), Jordan (jumping over the river--ie, "I'm in Israel! I'm in Jordan! Now I'm in BOTH!"), Lebanon (ditto, only under a fence and back), Aruba...I think that's it.

I was born in Italy and was moved to Long Island (New York) when I was just a couple of months. I lived in Amityville, which is South Eastern Long Island, and then moved West to Carle Place. Before moving to Carle Place, I moved back to Italy and lived there for almost a year, and then returned before 3rd grade. I went to Florida sometime ago, and also way upstate New York. That's pretty much it.

sjoecool1991 · 07-12-2006, 06:35 PM

I live in Northern VA, and have lived in California, Indiana, Illinois, and Florida.
I moved form Florida to California by car, and also moved from California to Indiana by car also. So the only states I have not been to in the US is up in the Northeast states, Alaska, and Hawaii.

BluePsych0 · 07-12-2006, 06:38 PM

I currently reside in suburban mid-California, specifically San Lorenzo, California. I used to live in Oakland, San Francisco, and I lived in Tahoe for not too long.

omgitsalliex3 · 07-12-2006, 06:42 PM

This thread makes me want to sing...

Way back yonder a long time ago, daddy had a man called Cotton Eyed Joe, blew into town on a traveling show, nobody danced like the Cotton Eyed Joe. Where did you come from, where did you go, where did you come from, where did you go, where did you come from, Cotton Eyed Joe?

w00t.

msbrunnettemickey · 07-12-2006, 06:51 PM

I was born in Ashqelon, Israel. At the age of 2 i moved to Rosh Haayin (which is next to Tel-Aviv). Later on at the age of 9 i was forced to move to Tenafly, NJ because of my father's RF engineering job.

I have been to Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Upstate NY, Canada (Toronto, Ontario...), Virginia, West Virginia, N. Carolina, S. Carolina, Florida, Maryland (Washington D.C.), Georgia, NYC (rofl), Israel, Lebanon, Gaza (because it was right south of where i was born o.o) California and of course I have been all over NJ and wow.. i don't remember.

Oh yeah.. I went to the dead sea and always saw Jordan... I always wanted to see it up close =(
Grrr... Orli XD

trillobyite · 07-12-2006, 07:38 PM

Born and raised in New York, not a particularly interesting life. Travelled to Miami, Florida, and then took cruise ships around the Carribean islands. I've been to Europe (UK, France, Italy, Greece, Spain), but all at too young an age to remember. I've been to Istanbul, Turkey, which I must say is one of the most unique places on Earth (Contrasts between Manhattan-like blocks and a stereotypical Middle Eastern city). I was in Zimbabwe once as a relative of mine travelled there and took me with her, but I mostly stayed in the cities and didn't dare enter the jungles because I feared malaria. As of now I hope to go to China, Egypt, Israel, and Bhutan (I'm obsessed with frigid, mountainous countries, even if the technology level is low).

MiniNeo · 07-12-2006, 07:40 PM

I live in Vancouver, Canada. I have been to Hong Kong, Beijing, Japan, Paris, Austrailia, England, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, maybe some more but I can't remember >_>

Actually, we more or less just passed through the bulk of Wales. We only stopped at where we had to catch the fairy over to Ireland.
