Squirrel 5,180 Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 After some shoutbox discussions of seeing where people have been to I thought I’d create a thread where we can share where we’ve been. https://map1.maploco.com/visited-countries/ This site doesn’t seem too bad in terms of ads and you can get a screenshot of the world map showing how far you’ve travelled. I definitely need to get out of Europe! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustHatched 12,103 Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 I've not been out of the United States. To much here left to see but if/when I do venture out it'll likely be to England/Scotland. 1 2 Quote The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything it's to late to stop reading it.

I crossed the border into it a few times while I was on a train and then there’s a funny bit on the coast where Bosnia has a tiny strip of land splitting Croatia in two.

Banketelli 3,655 Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 (edited) Never been outside Europe. Could have been to the U.S. but 18-year-old me felt like he was too old to vacation with the family plus he and his friends would soon have enough money to go over there anyways. What a knob that guy was... Edited February 25, 2019 by Banketelli 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like @Fido_le_muet I have only been to US for a short time from Canada. I was in Niagara Falls Ontario and so went over the bridge to Niagara Falls New York for lunch. I have a vague recollection of passing through Luxembourg on the way to somewhere else whilst on either a school trip to the Netherlands or with family going to somewhere in Germany. If that's right then I don't think the coach even stopped, so would that count anyway? Edited February 25, 2019 by djw180 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I drove to Spa for the f1 and was in the Netherlands for less than a minute. Didn't even know I was there, got 2 text messages from EE within a minute. One saying welcome to the Netherlands, and another for Belgium. I have been to Amsterdam on a separate occasion though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think if your network coverage changes country then that counts as a border crossing. I’m going to try find out how short the train line trip into Bosnia was, don’t think I can beat a minute though! Edit I did the maths. The train crossed into Bosnia for 6km. Average speed of the train is 70kmh so I was in Bosnia for just over 5 minutes. Long enough for a network change but no where near as short as @Potato Edited February 25, 2019 by Squirrel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In that case I made a trip to Turkey for 0s because we were on holiday in Rhodes (Greek island, very close to Turkish mainland) but the phone network kept saying we were in Turkey. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
