For me, I've been stranded in North America since I've set foot. (NA=Canada as well). Just wondering where everybody's been in the world?

If you're in western switzerland or eastern france, visit Strasbourg. It's a beautiful city and the air is just fantastic.

Oh, I wasn't in the Army, my dad was. We did most of that travelling when I was a kid. 30 days leave a year and $10/person/way flights made travelling to Europe really cheap. That, and living in Japan for 2 years allowed us to see all those Far East places.

It was fun going to all those places. Germany is supposed to have awesome scenery for backpacking. Not too sure how far you can get in 10 days, but I'm sure you'll have a blast. If it weren't for the backpacking thing, I'd say spend 10 days in London. That's gotta be one of my favorite towns. Can't beat walking around one of the world's largest cities at 4am and feeling perfectly safe (can't say the same for most big cities in the US). Tons of history and culture there, lots of stuff to keep you busy. As an added bonus, they speak a dialect of English! ;)

Pssst.

Tib.

Canada doesn't have states. We have provinces. :)

(Southwest? You were either in BC if you were REALLY west, or Southern Ontario, if you weren't. [Ottawa and Toronto are both in Ontario.])_

Most of the western states, Mexico, Canada, Jamaica.

Oddly enough, the only time I have been on solid ground east of the Mississippi River was to change planes.
