I was totin' my pack along the long dusty Winnamucka road
When along came a semi with a high canvas covered load
If your goin' to Winnamucka, Mack, with me you can ride
And so I climbed into the cab and then I settled down inside
He asked me if I'd seen a road with so much dust and sand
And I said, 'Listen! I've traveled every road in this here land'

I've been everywhere, man

WOW! You people have been around.
I've been to 20 states.
When I was a kid we went into Canada for about 30 min. just to say we had been there. I don't count that.
My daughter in college and high school age son are both visiting France next year.
As soon as I get them out of college it's my turn.

Australia, Austria, Bahamas, Barbados, Belgium, Bosnia and Herzegovina ,Canada, China, Croatia, Denmark, Egypt, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Haiti, Hungary, India, Indonesia, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Jamaica, Jordan, Luxembourg, Macedonia, Malaysia, Mexico, Nepal, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Syria, Thailand, Turkey, United Kingdom, United States, Vatican City, and Venezuela.

Haven't looked at a list in so long that some countries I visited no longer count (DDR- East Germany) and others have broken up, helping the count (Yugoslavia and the USSR). Still have to see South America and Africa below the equator, sooo many places to see. Heck, i have barely visited half the states in the USA.

Best place- Turkey. A great history, good people, and amazing seires of cultures in a compact area.
Worst place- China. hard to move around, a culture that has erased it's history in pursuit of consumer goods. But the food is second only to France's
