Where's your favorite place you've gone on vacation? Where do you want to go in the future? I've never even been outside of the U.S. so my list isn't very exciting  I've been to this town in Colorado called Grand Junction; Atlanta, Georgia three times; NYC but only for day trips; Philadelphia on a school trip; and the same Delaware beach every year since I was tiny little. Atlanta was fun but that's because I was with my friends on a theatre trip, we didn't see the city at all I like going to the beach, and I liked going to NYC when I was younger but it felt really crowded the last time I went. I really want to go to Europe and Australia in the future - next summer my school's Chamber Choir is going to Quebec, which I am super excited for, and I might be going on the French trip to France later this year (ahh!) and Argentina for the Spanish trip when I'm a senior. What about you? |

I've never been outside the country except for when I was six and went to England and France. Details are fuzzy. Going to Europe next year, though.
As for in the country, I absolutely loved going to The Kruger National Park. It's simply amazing there. Our family also annually travels to a places called the Gamtoos, which sounds a lot better pronounced in Afrikaans. :3

I've been to Mt. baker in Washington, camping with my grandparents. We lived only an hour from the border, so it was easy to go often.
I've also been to NYC. That's it for the states though. I'm hoping to go to New Jersey next summer.
In CAnada, aside from living in B.C., Alberta, and Ontario, I haven't seen much else. I've been to the French side of Ottawa, so I've technically been in Quebec. ^^
One day I know I'm for sure going to Ireland, England, Russia, Australia, and Germany. I'm going to make it happen.

Is Quebec fun? As previously mentioned, I'm going there next summer  (So excited!) Ireland would be really awesome to visit...perhaps I need to put that on my list, too |

I can't really say anything about Quebec, I haven't really been there... All I know is in the old area of Montreal, the legal drinking age is eighteen.
So, I have a chance to go to Italy in April. Has anyone been there? Do you think it'd be worth the money to go?

I would jump at the chance to go to Italy. I would say take the opportunity if you can. I always kick myself for not going on my traveling opportunities.

*sighs* I was going to, but when I actually write down everything - like costs - it's unrealistic for me to go.
But I know that the kids in my program are going to arrange another trip next year or something, probably somewhere else, but has just as much interesting architecture.

That sucks. Costs kill the poor student.

Costs are killing me right now. I never thought it'd be this hard.
Though, I'm looking forward to my roadtrip to the states next summer. ^^

And people laugh at the top ramen everyday budget. Top ramen is cheap and can be done in many different styles.
