Ooh, nice thread :)

In the UK I've been to Devon and Cornwall on holiday several times, the Isle of Wight twice and York once.
Outside the UK, I've been to France and Germany on school trips, and Majorca and Tenerife on holiday.
I've never been outside Europe, but I would love to visit lots of places.

I've been to lots of places (at least people I talk to think so), but like someone else said.. the list does not look as long as I thought.

Spain
Costa Rica
Mexico (Yucatan region and DF)
Bahamas (on my honeymoon!)
Canada (PEI, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Quebec, Ontario, Alberta and British Columbia)

United States- Most of the continental US
The states I have NOT been to are California, Nevada, North Dakota, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Connecticut and Rhode Island on the mainland, and I have not been to Hawaii or Alaska.

But I can make people jealous even if my list is short-- I have been to tons of National Parks- Glacier, Grand Canyon, Yellowstone (lived close to that one), Rocky Mountain Natl Park, Acadia, Mount Rushmore, etc.

Nice thread.

Never did travel much... but I've been to:

Egypt - Loved the history, but the pushy seller people, on every corner and every road and every path... did my head in. Daytime it was clothes and cloths and tat, and nighttime people were trying to sell you cannabis all the time. I probably just look like your typical stoner though or something.

Corfu - Lazy days. Drink in the evenings. Nice.

Isle of Wight! woo! - First 'break' with the missus, after being together for about 5 years! Was nice. More expensive than going abroad though!

Croatia - best. country. ever. Dunno why... loved it. Stayed on an island and visited the mainland when we wanted to. lovely jubbly. Teeny All inclusive hotel = nice and friendly, and lots of booze. Probably why I loved the country so much... alcohol tinted perspective. lol. Was the first (and only so far) 'proper' holiday away with the future mrs ches too.

I think that's it.

Headed to Cape Verde this year. I'm not telling you when or for how long, because you might burgle my house. So there. :D

Ahh totally agree. They drove me mad. We were quite lucky when we went to Sharm, as our hotel was out of the way in Hadaba so we only got the pushy people when we went into Old Sharm and Naama Bay.
