Yes.. I agree..it is totally amazing that pyramids were constructed so many years ago and before the inventions of advanced technology..

I think Scotland or Ireland would be great areas to learn more about it and even visit someday maybe. I love their culture and their homes.

Similar maybe ... because they are pretty close each other ... but there are some differences :)

I think the country that I would like to learn more about would be Italy. I have heard from others that it is so beautiful there and the people are nice and there is a lot to see and do. Hopefully sometime in my life I will be able to visit there. I used to have a penpal that lived there and she was a great friend.

Hello Ken, I hope you do get to Italy sometime in your life then..I have not been there either..but have been to Portugal for an extended stay. I have found the people in Europe to be most friendly.

I would love to learn more about New Zealand. My sister just recently moved there with her husband of eight years. He is from there and I have seen a lot of pictures of their country and I love the way that it looks. I would love to learn about their culture and the way that they do things. I know that they aren't much different from the United States but it would be awsome to move there. I am planning to go there in a year and a half. Their Winter is our Summer and vise versa so if I go I will go in my winter time.

Yes..I agree..it would be quite a treat to see Buckingham Palace. Would you seek out an audience with the Queen or try to chat with one of the Princes?

Hi littlefranciscan! I guess, I wanted to go to Italy next. Aside from the shops and stores (lol), I really wanted to see the architectural designs of the structures in that place. I am interested in the people and cuisine too. Although I have met some Italians went I went to the UK and have already sampled their cuisine in restaurants here in my country, I still want to get into the experience of actually being there.

Italy is rich in History..so much went on there..Especially during the early years of Christianity where they had the amphitheater and the lions .. So much history. I know the food must be good..as like you said..there are many Italians in America. I am sure they have a different flavor to their pasta that the american take on "italian".

Country...hmmm. Some of the countries in Africa seem to be interesting. Though I've been to Ghana and Egypt, I've never had the opportunity to learn more about the places. I was only 7 when I went to Egypt. I'd love to go to Ethiopia to learn more about civilization.

I would like to learn more about Turkey. I have a couple of Turkish female friends in my hometown of Guelph Ontario, and some time in the future my fiance and I would like to travel to Turkey, possibly for our honeymoon.

It is England and Scotland that I love to know more about . I had even wished that I would have been born in an English countryside . This may be due to my reading Thomas Hardy or Emily Bronte.
