    Go ahead. :)

    Name three countries in the whole world that you like, or languages, and explain why. Feel free to comment on those that others like. Maybe people here can find some things in common.

    Japan...because the things I love most are mainly from Japan; there are Tamagotchi and Pokémon stores there and that would be like heaven! *o* and also, it has overall a cute but unusual culture. :) I also love the Japanese language... it sounds so cool and I like how they use some English pronunciations.

    America... I find the American accent a lot better than the Australian accent lol, and also my online BF lives in the USA and I would like to meet him. X3 America seems like a more pleasant place to live in than my country.

    And uhh...
    I don't know what else. ouo; Maybe New Zealand or Belgium simply because I have online friends there. UK might be cool too because the new Tamagotchi is only available in Europe right now lol. I actually don't travel and I have never been in another state. :P I have been in one other town, years and years ago, until my family moved.

    Okay okay, this is a hard question, but I'll try:
    For countries, definately New Zealand. I don't know what it is, but I really want to go there once.
    Also Japan, for it's immense diversity. A friend from school went to Japan for six months (it was an exchange project, or something like that), and he's told me so many amazing things.
    And third, America. Reason: I live in the Netherlands, and nothing really happens there. Also, my parents don't have much money, so I never went on vacation far away. A place like New York is something I simply can't imagine, and I'd really like to see that.

    Yeah, the two places I want to visit the most are New York and New Zealand. Those are like each others opposite. I don't even understand it myself :P

    Japan because their lifestyle, culture, language are just so cool and awesome! And everything that I love are mainly from Japan. Italy because their language and sites are exotic, hawaii has the same reason as Italy.

    I live in NY, there's a LOT of drama that will probably annoy the heck out of you here. But other than that, it a pretty awesome place. There are four broughs here too; Manhattan(the BIGGEST tourist place because there's a lot of cool and awesome areas to go to), Queens, Bronx, and Brooklyn.

    Iceland. The country has a very unique landscape made up of volcanic rock fields and their tie to folklore is interesting, there's all sorts of stories of elves and fairies being connected to some natural earth energy since Iceland sits at the meeting of a couple of tectonic plates and is one of the most geologically active places in the world. Many people there still believe in fairies and monsters to this day. Even though I don't really believe in mystical things, it would be kind of neat to hear the versions of these things from locals. It's a unique place with a unique position on the planet.

    Russia. Interesting place, very different political history compared to 'the west', probably is reflected in their society as well, and that accent...the female Russian accent is hot. I dig it.

    Third, I guess Scotland. I have some Scottish ancestry and I never really get to explore that side of it. The side I always hear about is the French side and I am quite frankly sick of it because French Acadian history is all around me where I live..not to mention the majority of French people I have met in my home country have been insufferable cunts. I want to check out the other major part of my ancestry, the older part, going back to days of clans and castles and some of the old white ancestors. I was close to the border once during time I spent in England, but I've never been there to check out old ruins like I would like to. Of course I'd check out modern society too, which I imagine is nearly identical to England, a people I liked being around.
