I kinda figured that some places would be a given, and you wouldn't have to name them explicitly.

I'll go to Iraq when it settles down though. Interesting archeological sites there...

+10 Give me a plane ticket and I'll visit whatever flea-ridden god-forsaken hell hole is listed on the ticket. Even Vegas.

Really, this is a good attitude. I found out that I loved Cleveland that way.

I've visited a lot of obscure places (including Iran...) and have an overwhelming desire to see and experience more. There's genuinely nowhere I wouldn't go, if I had the oppurtunity.

I dunno about that. San Antonio, Galveston and Austin are worth seeing IMHO.

So, you aren't ok with Guyana, an English speaking country in South America.... but you are ok with their neighbors of French Guiana (French speaking) and Suriname (Dutch speaking)?

You aren't ok with Bolivia or Ecuador, but Peru is ok?

Is there some kind of pattern to this? Just curious.

Also, why is Nepal on this list, why wouldn't you want to see Nepal?
