What is your favourite Country?

[rareboy]

So for those here who have travelled more than 30 miles from where we were born, what is your favourite country other than the one you were born in (which everyone will naturally say is their favourite country because they were born there.)

Give three reasons why.

If you've never travelled outside your own country, don't waste your time with this thread.

[BENDERBOY]

Spain

The weather, the people, the art.
The sex.
tbaft

[G-Lexington]

Classic - ctisaat.



Lex

[peeonme]

The Netherlands

[zoltanspawn]

India.

1) Along with contempt, familiarity breeds fondness.
2) Its foods (are wildly underappreciated here at home).
3) Walkin' down the street.

[jensu846]

Aruba.
warm,
friendly,
casinos.
I went way before the Natalie Holloway deal, so probly cant say the same about it now.

[SLOPPYSECONDS]

hard wot galaxy ta pickys

thankyou

[RDaniel]

United States of America.

Seriously though.

Romania.

1.Men. Especially when some can have the latin/slavic combination in them. Naturally tanned skin, dark hair, then piercing colored eyes and strong facial features. *drool.People. I think they're warm and friendly. Cute when they try speaking English.
2.Nature. I just love the wildlife. The forests, the mountains...looking down at the forest from the Bran Castle. The cities are quite beautiful as well.
3.Food.

[JayHawk]

Oh aunty Em there are so many choices.... can I have more than one please.... ???

[JPGhost]

I really want to answer but Im not qualified :/

[ronboy]

Canada, of course!

1. The people are incredibly smart, creative and friendly.
2. Diversity is celebrated in Canada, not put down.
3. Most importantly..... My dear friend GSDX and my love, PreTTy PeTe, (Love ya' PeTe!), , are there!

The UK (would rank a close second). UK men are way hot too!

[Maklaar13]

The Netherlands, second would be Spain. I lived in Amsterdam for over 5 years and just love everything about it. Spain is where I should have been born.

The UK ...

1. The history
2. The scenery
3. They drive on the correct side of the road!!!

[lambdaboy]

UK American with dual citizenship live in London. In the U.S only about 30% have passports here its over 75 and we can take a train to Paris for Lunch 2 hours and 10 min tickets as low as $50 round trip Fantastic. But have been to Italy, Spain, France. The first weekend of August we rent a house on the Prisengracht Canal in Amsterdam. The Gay pride Parade is on the water and fantastic passes by our window.

Close second for me I've only been to London though and love it.

[frankfrank]

CANADA, slightly edging the United States of America.

I've been to only eight countries. The others: Bahamas, Mexico, West Germany, East Germany, Denmark, Sweden (in that exact sequence).

Of course two became one, with East Germany no longer in existence, and "West Germany" being renamed Germany because the "West" part became superfluous after reunification.

Countries which I think I would like a LOT: UK, Argentina, Uruguay, Singapore, Italy, Japan, New Zealand, Australia. Perhaps also Brazil or Colombia.

I think I would most likely still like Canada the most. I am not very inclined, for example, to learn (or, with Spanish, relearn) a second entire language, which would be true with most of these, and NOT true with Canada and three others.

[RaKroma]

USA. I was not born there, but yes the American exceptionalism is true with my experiences being in other countries. The entrepreneurial and innovative spirit is what I appreciate the most about the U.S. these days. Everything from entertainment media to technology, American people don't cease to contribute to better and enrich lives globally.

[JPGhost]

Of course I like


mute the song plz- so not me -_-

[alonelion]

Italy milan love Italy man

[EastMed]

There are quite a few I could visit time and again.

France, particularly the south - for the food, climate and culture.

Italy, Sicily in particular - for the food, climate and people.

Spain - again for the food, climate and people.

Cuisine, climate, culture and people are key ingredients, it seems.

[mark1111]

I lived in Greece and loved it. Lived in the middle east, not so much.

Went to vacation in Bali and liked it so much, I went back about 10 times.

Always had a good time in Australia, the people are very welcoming. (went on a beer and boomerang tour, nuff said)

[mitchymo]

If you've never travelled outside your own country, don't waste your time with this thread.

Technically, i've never travelled outside my own country, but since i'm from England, and i have been to Wales, i guess i can say Wales lol. The landscape, the castles, and the comedy-ready accents are awesome!

Countries i think i would enjoy visiting the most:

New Zealand for the landscape

Japan/South Korea for the culture

Spain/Portugal for the climate

Italy/Greece for the history, art and architecture


(Poland/Ukraine/Belarus/Russia/Lithuania/Latvia/Estonia/Czech Republic/Slovakia/Hungary/Bulgaria/Romania/Moldova/Croatia and Slovenia for the men , )

[Kyanimal]

Damned TOUGH Question!

Outside the U.S. of A., and Canada, I've been from Scotland to Southern Italy. Considering a place to live, I'd prefer somewhere along the Mediterranean.

However, Pressed for a FAVORITE, I have to go with Austria!

In spite of it's Winters, I'm enthralled with it's People, Culture, Food, and (slightly unfortunate) History.

THANKS! for the Question! I really had to THINK about that!

Keep smilin'!!

WHAT IS MY FAVORITE COUNTRY?

Oh, perhaps George Strait. However, a lot of the old Johnny Cash stuff is pretty cool, too.

[Laufey]

hint:

You broke the rules!

[star-warrior]

I've lived in the UK since birth, and as I grow older, it's becoming more of a police state. I'd like it here better if it weren't for that feeling.

My other favourite is the former british colony of Hong Kong. I like the Octopus card that makes travel on public transport so convenient, and the fact that I can eat without breaking the bank, have wonderful fresh fruit that is cheap but costs an arm and a leg in the UK. And the range of vegetables, I really miss the small type of lettuce they have over there, so lovely stir fried...

[nate78]

Iceland
UK
Senegal
Gambia

Not necessarily in that order. My brain is like dead right now I'm so tired... I can't think of three reasons why.

[frankfrank]

I'll take three guesses.

Guinea-Bissau?
Vatican City?
Bhutan?
Seychelles Islands [Republic of Seychelles]?
[Republic of] Nauru?

BONUS GUESS: The Consolidated Emirates and Principalities? (This is located across the Straits of Unicorn, from the Confederated Emirates and Principalities, which it is often confused with.)

Thanks mitchymo, I love it!

Five guesses here, because "the first two don't count."

[Beachguyj]

USA

1,2,3. Greatest place to live.

[Laufey]

Iceland
UK

Kinda out of topic but the last time I visited London I was twice asked by a British person if Iceland is a part of the United Kingdom

There are other people besides americans that don't know geography? NO WAY!

[Love me 2]

It's my dream to return to Germany. The Culture, The Castles, The People.

I have been to most of Europe, except for Italy, and the smaller countries.
Been in Mexico, and Canada.

[braex27]

Italy. Great food. Great coffee. Great art.

My favourite city is London. Great theatre.
