I've only been to Canada once, but I went to Victoria. It rained. Alot.
I went to the US for 3 weeks and the worst bit was being in San Francisco. I went with my school and we didn't get to do much except walk across the Golden Gate Bridge and back.
In Europe? Malta. Never go there. Never. Ever. No sane person would live on an island where they only have streams for 2 months of the year.
And finally, Morocco was a bit shit. I liked some parts, but random beggars pissed me off no end. Bit like in the life of Brian - "Spare a florin for an ex-leper!" :D

The French Riviera, Nice, was absolutely rubbish. It was just way to tourist oriented.
I wouldn't recommend Belgium much either, even though they have a huge indoor karting centre, a definite plus in my book.

The Philippines, the one place on my list of places to never visit again. Thailand was great and so was Spain. England was OK, but I didn’t get to see as much of it as I would like.

I would recomend the places they all said and advise of not going. I personaly enjoyed the Ukraine. However, the constant guards at crossing who wake up the little kids to check them to the passports really messed up my sleeping habits. Kiev was alright not excatly a tourist spot. and the country is either a fishing village ( which have great feast I enjoyed) or it is a sunflower field. so unless you really like sunflowers or fish the Ukraine is not a real vacation spot.

I object! It depends where you go. Even though I did find the crappy roads no end of amusement. We found one, where it was a brand new main road, which just stopped at one point. Just like that, no warning sign or anything. It became a gravel track for 100 yards or so and stopped.

Never go to Columbia if you can help it. Too dangerous unless you are under a well armed bodyguard. Also avoid Zimbabwe at all costs. I had to go there in the late 70's when it was called Rhodesia. If you are white and wander off the beaten path you may not return in one piece.
