I'm so boring... I've been just about EVERYWHERE in the US, Canada and Caribbean but I've never been overseas. I'm dying to see Europe and Asia!
Me: 35 | Him: 35 G born 10/25/12 | H born 3/25/14 TTC#3 since 7/2015 Early loss 12/2015 most likely due to low progesterone Began medicated cycles (Femara/Ovidrel/Endometrin) with TI 1/2016 BFP 3/22, EDD 12/4/16 ~ It's a GIRL!
I have, unfortunately, never traveled outside of the U.S.
All of the places within the U.S. I have been:
Hawaii (Honeymoon), California (lived there), North Carolina (live here now), Oklahoma, Arkansas, South Carolina...and DH and I have driven across the U.S. so we have been through Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, and Tennessee.

I've been to Mexico, Cuba, France (Paris), Spain (Barcelona), Quebec, Ontario, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Boston, New York (upstate only), Texas and Miami I love travelling and there are so many more places I want to visit!
Live in NY. Been to Maine, New Hampshire, Massachussets, Vermont, Missouri, Louisiana ( NO and Lake charles), Houston Texas, Grand Canyon Arizona, Bryce Canyon Utah, Zion Utah, Vegas, and 3 Hawaiian Islands.... All with MH. You?

See I'm actually jealous of all of you who have traveled in the US. I have really only been to a handful of states and there is SO much I would love to see. I think a goal of DH and mine is to over time bring our kids to every state at least once.
Internationally I have been to: Sweden, Finland, Norway, Iceland, Denmark, Netherlands, Belgium, France, Spain, Canary Islands, Italy, Greece, Prauge, Canada, Antigua, Germany, Switzerland, Austria, and Slovenia (for no joke 5 minutes to get a stamp), and England.

London was by far the best experience ever and I can't wait to go back some day!

My BFP Chart
In the US - lived in MO and IL. Been to TX, FL, OH, and MD
Internationally - Mexico (just border towns by TX) and I lived in Jamaica for a semester in the Blue Mountains in Kingston. It was very third world and very un-vacation, but I absolutely loved it. The people were amazing.
USA: Maryland (living there now), Vermont, NH, NY, NJ, Delaware, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, Indiana, Virginia, West Virginia, Florida, North Carolina, California, Oregon, Washington. And Washington DC. Also a few drive-through states I'm not counting because I didn't stay there.
It sounds like a lot but it was a whirlwind backpack tour of Europe and I only got a day or two in each city. It was awesome, though, and I'll never forget it.
Domestically: California, Arizona, Nevada, Utah, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, North/South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, Minnesota, Iowa, Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Tennessee, Georgia, Florida, New York ... will be going to Oregon in July

International: Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico (for a hot 20 minutes), Mexico, South Africa, Botswana and Namibia
I've been all over the midwest US, but that isn't horribly exciting. My one big trip was when I was 21 and my family went to Ireland. We did a 10 day bus tour of the country. On the last day we hired a driver to take us to the house my great grandma grew up in. We still have family living there and the original house is still on the property. It was amazing.
I've been up and down the east coast and to California. I've also been to Aruba, Mexico and Puerto Rico. I would love to be able to see Europe at some point!
I have been to many, many states here in the U.S. I have also been to Canada, Mexico, Jamaica, England, and France! I love to travel and would love to go just about anywhere!
Fun question! We have some well-travelled people around here!
I've been to Europe a few times - I studied abroad in Madrid and Edinburgh, and did a Mediterranean trip to Italy, Greece, Turkey with my family. DH and I honeymooned in Hawaii and a Caribbean cruise for our anniversary. Trying to get lots of travel in before babies!
I highly recommend Rome, Cinque Terre (Italy), and Hawaii as great romantic destinations.
