  1. I have been in many places in Europe and the Middle East, even in Africa, but I have not been to USA or Canada. Maybe I will go.

  2. I hope you do, there are many great places in both the US and Canada, but they are so spread out. I remember taking some near-friends from England through a whirlwind trip - NY, Boston, Niagra Falls (Canadian side, it's a bit prettier AND they wanted their passport stamped) and then back.
