I am from Europe and my first traveling experiences happened there. When I was 19 I went Tunisia in North Africa and to St Lucia in the Caribbean Sea. I was 20 when I wet around the world and on that I went to Australasia and Asia. I haven't yet been to South America but really want to.
Have you traveled to a different continent?

Australasia-I have been there
North America-I have been there

South America-I haven't been there

I have been to Europe twice. I cruise alot so have seen a great deal of the Caribbean and Central America. I have done quite a bit of the US and even Hawaii and Alaska. I have plans to try and see as much of the world as possible in my lifetime, many of these trips will be on a cruise ship if possible.

Hi James. Have you considered buying a beachfront property in the Philippines? We have one but it is still being developed and we need to wait for a couple of years to save enough for funding. I tell you, Boracay Island is a bit congested now and i am not so sure about the safety in Palawan. Bohol is great, but you know the safest, quietest and almost virginal is very close to Bohol (20 minute boat ride) and that is Camiguin where our 'dream' waits. This is Wow Philippines. :)

I've been to Canada when I was a child though I don't remember much about it...I do remember the ferry ride and that was great. I've also been to Mexico and I loved the market place down there...all kinds of ppl set up stands and sell things to ppl. It's alot of fun and very festive. One day I'd like to go to Ireland and visit a real castle.

Perhaps you can return to see Canada again now that you are older. It is superb that you have been to Mexico. I hope that you will go to Ireland. My home country has lots of castles, the best castles that I have seen are in Bavaria, Germany. The Czech Republic has some pretty castles and so does Romania.

Wow, that's a lot of places to have been. I want to travel too. But of course, budget and time constraints make me not able to go as many as I want.
Asia- I used to live here. Visited different countries there too.
North America - I currently live here and had visited different places too.
Europe- Im planning to visit places there.
Australia - On my list of "places to go"
Africa - On my list of "adventures to have"

That's cool. You have seen the world at avery young age. I have never visited any continent before but I have plans of going to north america or perhaps Europe. Have you ever been here in the Philippines in your travel to Asia? I have plans of viting Spain, Netherlands, Paris, Germany, Vienna and Switazerland... I hope I'll be able to. Wish me luck.

I am glad that I made the effort to go traveling at a young age. I backpacked around Europe at age 18 and then I was off backpacking around the world when I was 20. I would love to go to the Philippines. I would fly into Cebu and catch a ferry to Bohol to see the Chocolate Hills. I imagine that the snorkeling is great. I hope that you go to Europe and then to North America. I wish you lots of luck and know you will love traveling my friend.

I am from the Caribbean, Trinidad. We are a twin island state, called Trinidad and Tobago. The first continent I traveled to was Asia. I visited India. I was on a Spiritual pilgrimage. There is a lot of history in it's architecture, and customs. I have visited India eight times.
I also visited Europe, France, Holland, Germany Britain, and Belgium. I went on an European bus tour. Very scenic, exciting and rewarding.
Africa, the land of my ancestors. I stayed seven months in West Africa, The Gambia. I observed the way of life of the people, their systems and their culture.
Americas. I visited North America - Canada, USA. South America - Guyana, Surinam. In the Caribbean which is a chain of islands close to the Americas, I have visited Jamaica, Barbados, Grenada.

You certainly have done some serious traveling. I've been to several places, but not nearly as many as you. I'm from the USA and have been to Europe, North Africa and the Middle East. I'd love to go to New Zealand. Maybe some day it will happen.

I'd love to visit Africa and Australia. I think both countries have very rich wildlife. I alsways watch the National Geographic and Animal Planet and I see all these amazing animals! I haven't been to Europe either but I plan to go once I've saved enough from work. ;) I live in Asia and I've been to 3 countries here excluding my homeland. I've also been to North America but I'd love to visit the different states some day.

My profession is such that it allows me to visit so many countries. so far i have visited countries in Europe, Africa, North America, many countries in Asia. but Artic and Antarctica are those places where scientists visit only . for normal people it is impossible to go there. i am hopeful that i'll visit Australia and New zealand someday.

I am from Asia and now living in North Africa. I have visited Dubai and will be visiting our neighbor country, Tunisia (an hour plane ride)before end of this year. Where we live now is also very close to Italy so we also plan to see that country next year. Italy is part of Europe, so this would probably be a dream-come-true for me to be able to visit other places in this continent, and travel by land (wow!)to see both countryside and the metro. You are so lucky to have traveled (almost) around the world at a young age. But in my part i guess this is not just a gift for myself but for my kids too.

Wow, I envy you. I've never been anywhere outside my country, the more I've never been to a different continent. I plan to save money so that I can travel anywhere I like but I intend to travel first in my country.
