What's The Farthest You've Ever Been From Home?
Question of the Day:
I'm in Quebec! Don't worry, though I'm not home, I'll definitely be finding a way to read all the comments while I'm gone.
How far have you been away from home? The farthest I've been is China, half the way around the world! I'm always stunned when people have never even left the city they were born in, but I guess it happens.
What places are you planning on visiting? Do you see yourself getting homesick or having a grand ol' time?

Hawaii.
the furthest i've been from home is the philippines. i've lived in toronto (hometown), michigan (for college), and now boston (grad school), so philippines was definitely the furthest from all those locations.
i really want to visit south america, greece, and other parts of asia (thailand perhaps?)
i was born in New Zealand, but i grew up in California. so, i consider California home.
i've been to Australia, New Zealand, Taiwan, China, Japan, Canada, and Mexico.woo!I've been to Japan and China...Home is NC...Missouri now.
ive been to 36 states in the US, as well as Honduras, Belize, Grand Cayman, Mexico and all over Canada.
next up... Ireland!
Farthest... would have to be the Philippines. I want to go to Brazil, but we're going to Florida =[
furthest i've been would be...... korea. and i'm from singapore! I have so many countries I want to go when i'm older to afford!!!
I'm from Atlanta. I'm not really sure which is further, but I've been to Brussels and to Honolulu.
french polynesian islands, hawaii, and japan. im from hk now living in ny.
Born and lived in Miami till I was 12 while spending summers and Christmases in Nigeria. Went to secondary school in Nigeria and lived there for four years before moving back to the states.
US: Boston,Florida, Georgia, New York.
Everwhere else: Amsterdam, Brazil,Ghana (doesn't count really), London, Paris, and Rome.
I would never go back to Rome though; worst experience ever.
Buenos Aires, Argentina & Colonia, Uraguay.
$3500 trip for Spanish class... worth every penny.
The East coast of america is probably the farthest. OR it could be Europe. I really don't know which is further away because Japan's my home~
gaaah. now im missing my family, friends, and home again :(
California, and I live in Ohio.
The furthest south I've ever been is the Bahamas and Jamaica, north would be Niagra Falls, east would be New York City, (which I just got back from) and west would be Chicago. I live near Columbus, Ohio, so the farthest is Jamaica on the Disney Cruise.
I live in NYC, furthest would be Rome, Italy =)
i live near NYC - and next week ima be out to chi-town without my fam for the first time, but only for a few days. and my cousin & i have a plan to go out to philippines by ourselves for the entire next summer
I live in England and in February i got to go to Russia on a history school trip - Moscow and St.Petersburg : ) and we travelled between the two cities on the night train, that was awesome!
My dream is travel round South America, maybe on a gap year after Uni...
@Juwon - What was wrong with Rome? I've always quite fancied going to Italy..
HK, but it was only for a while ^^
I live in Baltimore. The farthest I've ever been from home would be Lourdes, France. That was for a short time, however. I lived in Salt Lake City (UT) for about two years. Living out West surrounded by all those gorgeous, gigantic mountains and all of the Mormons, I definitely felt a LONG way from home. I love it out there, though. :)
London and parents are in nyc.

I love the way people are using this as a way to show off about where they have been in the world. The furthest I have been from home is Hawaii, I think. I live in UK.
I live in Miami, FL and in high school I went to Greece and Turkey.
Italy. Twice.
:]
My family is Italian, and I am getting my dual citizenship this year- so I will definitely be back many more times.
Northern Indiana.
