Countries you have visited and how much you like them

[Rock Captain 99]

I came across the thread 'places you want to visit', so I made this thread for the countries you have visited and you can also share your experiences.

Let's start with me. I haven't travelled many countries. I live in India and I have visited Nepal and UAE.

Nepal- I visited there when I was young. I have a faint memory of visiting there. As much as I remember, it was a good place, and I would definitely like to go there again.

UAE- I visited Dubai on a trip with friends and family. It's an amazing place, and very advanced as compared to my country. I was very much amazed by it's beauty and never wanted to leave after the trip was over. Such a great place.

Kenya- So i got a chance to visit this African country on an official trip. Believe me, it was much better than my expectations. Helpful people, beautiful views, nice beaches. I visited Mombasa, it was little hot there, but climate in Nairobi was perfect. I changed my job else I would have got a chance to visit there again. Only thing i regret is not going on a wildlife safari during my stay.

I have updated my post for my Kenya visit.

I've been in a few countries.

Denmark: Lived there through my early childhood from 6 years old until 12. My dad was studying computer programming. Sweet country but The danish people aren't too respectful towards Icelandic people in the Mosevangen row-houses in Horsens. Nice weather very often here. Denmark is also a big producer of Haribo candies and most things are quite cheap. Overall 9/10

Italy: Was there once on vacation in Pietra Ligure, stepped on a sea urchin (i had beach slippers on but a few were lodged in my heel oouch, but no poison)
Overall 5/10

Norway: This was a mandatory skiing trip in Norrtalje with my danish school. But i hate the cold. 2/10

Sweden: Part of a school co-operation between Iceland and a Swedish school. Pretty good experience with a theme park visit before going home.
Me and a lot of others had a rather meh experience since most Swedish people don't use english. 5/10

Spain: All i can say is this country is ridiculously warm even at night the oxygen is really hot. and Thin blankets means it rather uncomfortable trying to sleep. I'm not a fan of extreme heat. 5/10

Iceland: I live here but the winters are long and we get a lot of weeks with cold winds or lot of rain. It gets unpredictable sometimes and things can be expensive. But my family lives here. 10/10

Do you visited Spain's towns like Costa Del Sol or Banalmadena? I'm planning to visit Banalmadena which is a great town in Spain and considered as best holiday gem. Anyone have been on these holiday gems on the Spanish coast?

Nope only Tenerife once. Popular spot for Icelandic people to rent a apartment for a few days.

When I was a kid (about the age of 5-10) we lived in England because that's where Dad got work. At the time this let us go to a lot of European places, with Italy and France being our most common trips. Nowadays, less so. I've gone to the US a good amount of times (a friend of the family and my step-mother live/are from the US) and Australia (which I lived there for a few years). Currently I am trying to do my first guided tour to Japan

In total, here are the countries I have been

• Lived in: New Zealand (currently/birth country), England (from ages 5-10), Australia (2020-2023)
• Visited when I lived in England: NZ, the United States of America, France, Italy, Germany, Spain, Austria, Czechia, Singapore, Thailand
• Other visits: Australia, the US, Fiji

I've been to Mexico. It was really neat, not too different from Arizona in weather or architecture, where I was living at the time. I wish I was better at Spanish so I could have understood more. Would love to go back someday.

• Italy - Loved being there (south at least) and plan on moving back soon.

• Germany - It's okay. People are kind most of the time. Food's not the best, though.

• Turkey - It was only in Istanbul, but nonetheless I enjoyed myself. The food is AMAZING.

• United States - Born here. Place kinda sucks. Sorta over it. Food is dope, though.
