Northern Ireland (o'er the border... does it count?)
I'm only twenty, so if I continue to travel at this rate, I should get most countries covered. For some reason I really want to see North Korea. Don't ask me why, I know it's dangerous...
Oh yes, and my favourite was germany - berlin kicks ass - although america was interesting.

Although the last four were solely for "business" purposes. I would really like to go back to Turkey in a civilian capacity, though. It looks like a very beautiful country, and I'm told Istanbul is quite beautiful in places, too.

A good friend of mine recently moved to a French town near Geneva because her fiancé was recruited by CERN. I'm jealous as hell. It's really funny that I lived in Germany for two years, and I speak French but not German. She is going to live in France for two years, and she speaks German but not French.

I got two hits. The first was Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I've_Been_Everywhere

1959. John Hore. ADAPTED BY Johnny Cash!

No disrespect to JC. And WikiP can be wrong.

I've Been Everywhere Lyrics

I was totin my pack along the long dusty Winnemucca road
When along came a semi with a high canvas covered load
If your goin' to Winnemucca, Mack with me you can ride
And so I climbed into the cab and then I setteled 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

Well I haven't been to any places in either of the versions of 'have you been everywhere', but to me, it feels like i have been to a lot of countries. (belgium, the netherlands, france, germany, italy, spain, portugal, poland, greece, czech republic, turkey, saudi arabia, seychelles, cypres, sri lanka, kenya, bahrain, USA, i think zwitserland too but I'm not sure and i probably missed out some other ones but i can't think of anything else at the moment).

I want to travel a lot more though when i finish university, maybe go to some other country for part of my masters.
