Great post

Absolutely, I'm totally an explorer too! There's something magical about discovering new places and immersing oneself in different cultures. Speaking of travel, Europe is an amazing destination, especially in June. I'm actually planning a trip across Germany this year. Found this awesome website, [dbfahrplan.com], where you can easily book train tickets. It's a game-changer, trust me! So excited to share my travel stories here. Oh, by the way, I'm new on this forum. Let's embark on unforgettable adventures together!

I'm a couch traveler who explores the world by watching different videos on YouTube and saving money on travel costs.

Oh, I understand your feelings. Anyway guys, right now I would like to talk about ETIAS, have you ever gotten it? I have already read so many different resources about that ETIAS Europe and I'm still afraid of doing something wrong so I hope that someone here will be able to help me. Thanks in advance.

I have been fascinated by fantasy books since childhood. Then three films on the Lord of the Rings were released. And I began to dream about going everywhere where this film was shot. But I haven't traveled much so far. I've been to Berlin, many American cities. That's all.

Y'all come visit me in Hainan (Coconut Island). I got a spare room. The food here is fantastic and palm trees everywhere. Beaches. Balmy, but beautiful.

I am a financially deficient explorer. I will likely never make it overseas but since my daughter sells cruises for a living, I have been to the caribbean a couple of times and climbed several mayan ruins along with other places.

I found some dna cousins and will be making an 8 hour drive to spend some time with one of them next month. Ive been thinking that perhaps I may take some online friends up on their offers of a place to stay and venture even further someday.

An outlier here. Traveling gives me very intense anxiety. Going places I've never been is a huge trigger. I'm incredibly happy in my comfort zone where I can follow a routine. I'm having to move 30 minutes away to a different city that I've visited many times, but it's really scaring me.

As the saying goes, if travel was free, you'd never see me again.

Well....where do I start? I've been everywhere man! France, Bahrain, Capetown, Canary Islands, Messina Sicily, Naples, Milan, Singapore, Malaysia and New Zealand. I have lived in Australia, England, the Philippines and good ol' U.S. of A. (Texas, Louisiana, New England, California). Does that count. I still want to travel to Spain, Morocco, India and re-visit France and Italy.

In June, my family and I will take a month-long road trip around Texas. There is still much of Texas I haven't seen.

I spent 6 years in the Army, went to Okinawa, South Carolina, Massachusetts, Maryland, and Germany. I married a soldier and went back to Germany, and moved about 15 more times. I am planning a trip to Winipeg in the fall, and we will see what the future brings.

I used to be until my son moved to Alaska 20 years ago now that is my destination every year. I will be there in July for a couple of weeks catching fish and avoiding brown bears.

I would really love to visit the Far East especially Japan,...I am fascinated by their wonderful culture.

Also I need to do a bucket list.

I would enjoy exploring if I could. But with my autoimmune and nervous system conditions, travel isn't an option. I do small trips here in the USA, and I get sick everytime. Not worth it to travel further.

I've got a bucket list I'm working on. When I complete it, I'll make another one. I can't wait!!!

Actually not so much exploring, i like living & working abroad. That's really the only way to understand a country & its culture. And speaking the language of course.

Following my separation (eventual divorce), disenchanted by conventional America, I sold everything and took a job in Vietnam teaching English. I thought I would go for just one year, but, when I returned, I was wrestless and bitten by the travel bug. It's been 10 years, 32 countries, 4 continents, and I'm looking to go back out. Re-establishing in the USA is a difficult process and the cost of living has skyrocketed, so it looks like I'll be heading back out to explore a new place. Anyone want to experience a tropical island in Asia with me?

My dream is to make it to every European country before I die.

I've done quite a bit of traveling. Gotten to see a few other parts of the world.
Been to all but 6 states.
If money were no object, I'd still be traveling.
Turns out, the older I get, the more I need to be comfortable wherever I am.
Sleeping on the ground, or the floor, is no longer an option. Indoor plumbing
is a non-negotiable requirement. There will be no more camping out. Ever.
Would that I could, I'd be hanging out in Italy, full-time. With excursions into Greece,
and multiple points throughout Europe.
I'd also really like to see New Zealand.

Moving to Okinawa, Japan in September. I've lived all over the country. Now I get live on the other side of the planet.

Definitely an explorer.

I live only to be in a different place every day.

I would love to explore Europe and other places I've never been, but every time I seriously think about it, I remember all of the places in the US I've never explored. I've even left places within a hundred miles of me unexplored, so I can scratch that itch without spending a ton of money.
