Well out of:
U.S.
India
Singapore
China
Zambia
Zimbabwe
and South Africa

I'd have to say the U.S. owns.


EDIT: oh yeah, I went to Mexico too. But I live in California so I never see too much of a difference. Other than people selling a lot more Mexican flags on the street for tourists.

I have to say Ireland (southern anyway)

It was weird, comming from America... cuz people are actually NICE and HELPFUL to the poor confused tourists. I mean, totally random people helped me when I was all lost. Ask someone here for help, they think your gonna rape or rob them or something.

On the other hand, there are a lot of nice americans too... i shouldn't generalize. I guess its more that i just didnt meet any crappy irish (except for the drunk guy who started hitting on my mom. That was just creppy...)

I'm an Aussie, so I'd have to say here. Out of all the other countries I have visited, I'd say my next fave would be Canada.

I've been to England (obviously), Wales, Scotland, France, The Gambia, The USA and Canada. Of all of them Canada was the one I enjoyed the most. I could happily settle in a place like Canada. I also like Wales. I feel welcome there whenever I go, it's a beautiful country with an interesting language I'd learn if I lived there. But the only place I've been in France is Boulogne, which is a dump.

So Canada, on the whole.

I've been too..

Australia - Lived there for months (Holidays!, and studies)
Malaysia - Nearly my whole Life
Indonesia - Nearly a year
Switzerland - Nearly a month
Singapore - Holiday there too often than I can remember
Nepal - Trapped there for nearly a month. :p (Lousy King's Son had to murder his whole family)

Rest are all tour-trips to some of Europe,UK, US,NZ Canada Etc..

Have to say, countries that impressed me, that I would migrate there, because of socio and economic reasons, probably would be Australia, NZ, Switzerland, Canada.

Japan, Singapore, is too damn congested, Makes you feel like a cog in a big machine. And too Kiasu (Afraid to lose, their all very materialistic).

I´d say "Home, Sweet Home" is my favorite. But there are plenty of good and nice places as well:

Basically every place in Europe or Northern America. Though I could NOT imagine living in some places for the rest of my live, NOT because of the people or country, but mostly because of the climate. I don´t like it too hot, so - e.g. - California, Southern Italy or Spain would not be a option.

Switzerland Switzerland Switzerland!

I'm here now. It's so pretty and the locals are so nice! What a great place.

But I would also have to say that my Home country New Zealand is the best for scenery,
Singapore is best for food,
Germany is best for culture,
and Denmark is the best for people - they're so attractive that it's threatening.

06-01-2005, 16:35
So Denmark hey? :cool:

I plump for Holland or Belgium, Ireland's good but when you come from Scotland there's not much of a difference.

i have been to:

england
scotland
northern ireland (where i live)
republic of ireland
argentina
france
spain
greece
switzerland
belgium
USA
romania

and out of that, Switzerland probably wins, although argentina has plus points, but theyre kind of wiped out by the fucked economy. which was good for us when we were staying there, but not so good if you want to live there i imagine

I loved my visit to Cuba - the people really are very nice there, and the culture is very family orientated. France was nice, as was Germany. I loved the architecture in Rome.

But...

My favourite country will always be Japan for its wireless internet that's faster than my cable. To your mobile phone.

Gosh I've been to sooooo many countries, and of course I adore Poland since I was born there and lived there for half of my life.

But out of alllllll the places I have ever been....I would have to say Iceland. I love Iceland. I love the people, the scenery, the culture, the language......everything :) I'm hoping to end up in Iceland in like....3-4 years if all goes as planned.
