I've been pretty much everywhere in the US except New England/Alaska/Hawaii

Only time I've been outside the country was for a cruise in the Bahamas though. I'd definitely like to visit more countries, Iceland/New Zealand being at the top of the list

North Dakota is so much better. It has THE elevator

oh hey forgot about this thread

last year I definitely upped my traveling and had my first two big international trips, a two-week trip to Japan w/ some friends and a five day trip to Germany with Papa J. Definitely hoping to do more this year, got a few potential ones in the WORKS. Both international and domestic are on the table, I've been to a lot of the States but most of that was as a kid/teen, so I'm definitely due. Especially the national parks, would love to go back to Yellowstone. And maybe even check out Moab.....??

Last September I did my first solo trip to London, UK. First time out of North America. I stayed for a week, saw the Man United/Arsenal game, hung out with the Arsenal fans after, did some of the traditional London sightseeing stuff. I did the Wembley Stadium tour, visited some family and friends who lived there, did Stonehenge, and Bath trip, saw Abbey Road and saw some other sights. This year, I'm going solo again to Europe, going to Berlin, Warsaw, Krakow, Budapest, Vienna, Prague and back to Germany (Frankfurt). This will be a 2 week vacation in May. Later in the year I'm traveling to Chicago to watch the Jays take on the Cubbies and hang out for the weekend.

if you have time, definitely would recommend a day trip to Heidelberg when you're in Frankfurt (it's about 90 min away by train). Frankfurt has some cool stuff too but is much heavier on the modern city side than the historical side

Utah! Honestly one of the best trips I've ever been on, I'd love to go back someday

after KC and I parted ways after Canyonlands, me and my bud hit up Capitol Reef, Bryce Canyon, and Zion national parks (so all of the Utah parks minus Arches...but not for lack of trying!). Hiking the Narrows in Zion in particular was a huge highlight, it was so unique (and a very refreshing respite from the 105 degree days)

THE GNOME! Canyonlands Capitol Reef Bryce Canyon Mr. Sinclair <3 Zion also, bonus footage of KC taking his SUV down the rockiest of roads during our failed attempt to reach an uncharted disc golf course (the vid really doesn't do it justice tho) https://photos.app.goo.gl/LP6JkdJrqBjcgQoG9

now that I have the national park annual pass I definitely wanna find excuses to go to more, it's just too bad the vast majority of them aren't in driving distance. I am already planning on a brief visit to the Smoky Mountains in September tho

RIP Dal Ackerman

which deep dish place did you visit my Jeff

it's a chain now (there's a few up in Milwaukee now too) but the OG Chicago location is easily the best, love Lou's
