Wow. Your lists are amazing!
My wee-little one is:
Canada (Vancouver, Toronto, Ottawa, Montreal etc and 3 months skiing @ Whistler)
That's it! Such an amateur! Geez!
But I am planning my Europe adventures this October so hopefully I'll be able to add to my list.

Hungary

And I'm leaving in November for a one year trip in Australia, Asia, and more Eastern Europe...

Hey your insight into some of those Eastern European countries would be wicked atchoum, would you mind giving us a play by play when you get a chance, I know I would love to hear about countries like Romania, Poland and the rest of them, I know what you have to say would benifit others who wanna make the trek that way. B)
Looking forward to reading your posts in the Eastern European Thread

About 90% of my friends have never been out of the US. And if they did, itīs only been just past the borders of Canada and Mexico.
Itīs a vicious rat-race that we enter once we reach adulthood and get that first credit card and use it irresponsibly. This will compound rather quickly as do the monthly bills, rent, insurances, and everything else that comes along as you finally stray away from your parents home.
It could take a decade or more before you realize that youīre not making much headway on your quest for solvency and if you donīt "pull the trigger" now and start living your dreams (traveling or whatever), more time will slip away and your opportunities will slowly diminish as your obligations increase. Well, thatīs what happened to me, anyway <_<
I agree with CD that WE need to be grateful that we even have a list . We have seeeeen the light! Can I git an Aaaaaaa-men!

Ahhh-mennnn travelpunk. My list is incrediably short LOL
I know BC, AB< and the territories like the back of my hand. But, we haven't gotten overseas yet.
Life is definately about setting priorities and fulfilling them. We are slowly on our way to fulfilling our priorities, and its great! Albeit a bit insane-my kids are running me ragged today

Ohhh Travelmom! Someone who has travelled with kids!
What kind of tips can you offer me? We're doing 8 months in Europe next year. Our kids will be 2,4 and 6. We're doing mostly house swaps.
How was Israel? That is on my must see list. 2005 we're builing a house, so it'll have to be 2006 (planning well ahead!) when the kids are a bit older
