Okay i wanted to see what type of people travel more, like whether it counts on your age, your gender, your nationality etc. I have just got back from a little place in between Fetiye and Olu Deniz in Turkey called Ovacik. It seems there werent many different nationalities there, only English and Turkish people. Which is strange as normally i see alot of german people when i travel aswell. SO anyway if you want to copy and paste these categories and fill them in:

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Age:
Gender:
Nationality:
Different Countries visited:
Total:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Include Islands in brackets if you want, with the country that they are in. Islands are included in the total.

So for example mine would look like this:

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Age: 15
Gender: Male
Nationality: English
Different Countries visited: England, Wales, USA, France, Germany, Switzerland, Spain, Italy, Greece, (Zante - Greek Island), (Lanzarote - Spanish Island off coast of Africa), Turkey.
Total: 12
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I have a feeling ive missed a few out but never mind. [:p]Bear in mind i have been to a few of them places more than once aswell. [:)]

"(depending if you count UK as one)" NO!!! Thats like counting Europe as one country [confused]. I hate the "UK", its crap, like in F1, Jenson Button and David Coulthard are from the UK, no they're not! Button is from England and Coulthard is from Scotland, I hardly want to be labelled together with sheep shaggers and ginger people [lol] ..... oh and the northern Irish, can't really think of something they're famous for, apart from rioting of course.

I thought this would happen. It seems the USA is so big, Americans dont need to go abroad on holiday as much. All the other people seemed to have travelled more.

YAY, me and X are winning. [:D]

I'm not that surprised either. Its much easier visitting other countries for us europeans. But I don't think it is because they don't need to go abrod. Its propably because its more difficult. If they want to get to any other country than canada, US or mexico they will have to take a realy long flight, while in Europe you can drive between the different countries.

Ok ok Gouldy. I will not count UK as one[;)]

I think perhaps you need to look at the age group, jpe, before making a claim like that. It is not like many 15 year olds are traveling abroad on a whim. DUH!

And as far as you winning ... that's a big negative Ghostrider.

Im 15, and the other Europeans here and Scandinavians (is that right) are only a little older and have been to more countries. I wasnt accusing Americans of anything, just stating what i believed.

Damn, now you're beating me [V][:p][lol] Are you in the air force as you have been to alot of countries for an American. LOL[:p][:)] Thats why my family like to travel as my Grandad was in the Air force and my dad has travelled alot because of it, so we tend to now.

The best reason to come to England is to go to Alton Towers. [:D] Especially to ride a certain B&M inverter there. [;)]
