    Yes.

    Actually I've passed through Singapore many times in the past, but never got off the plane.

    :p

    Japan, once. But games went crap, arcades turned to grabbing games, and I don't like the "Cool Japan". After a while of anime seeming different you realise it is commercialised crap, merely from a different culture. Samurai Japan is however fascinating.

    North Korea would be... interesting.

    Iran I would love to visit but Brits are unwelcome enough to be placed under surveillance. I once tried to emigrate to Iran.

    The highlight of my actual travels so far has been Chernobyl/Pripyat.

    I would very much like to visit Australia because of its unique wildlife. I would also love to visit Norway as I am quarter scandinavian.

    My list has grown a bit :p I would now add Uganda for Africa, and Chile and the Falkland Islands for the Americas. To avoid listing almost all of the world's countries, I'll stop here :p

    Why would you visit Norway and not another Scandinavian country instead?

    I have visited Denmark countless times. Norway is where most of my ancestry comes from.

    I haven't been outside of the US for more than a few hours at a time. Parents drove over to Canada and Mexico a couple times when I was a kid, we didn't do much. There are lots of countries I'd love to visit! I guess my top choice is New Zealand. I'd also like to visit Peru, Tanazania, Norway, Ireland, Italy, Australia, India, Japan. Though really, I'd be down for whatever.

    is that because of cetaceans? Interestingly, NZ has about half of all the world's species recorded in its waters, although I guess only about 15 species might be considered reasonably reliable to see.

    They're not the only reason, but they definitely factor in, ha ha. I'd want to do some hiking and kayaking, and check out some of the zoos as well.
