All but Antarctica, and I hope to go there within the next few years.

How many banana clips did the soldier have

I really didn’t notice because she poked me with the barrel of the gun maybe ten times or more until she had me off the train. It’s amazing how little detail you notice when being poked off of a train with a gun. After she took me and five other people into the blockhouse the train left. She was kinda hot.

We stayed locked up until morning. It was literally a cinder block building with no exterior windows. It had two rooms. We just sat on the floor against a wall where they told us to stay. It wasn’t really a jail. There was no bars or anything like that, just a handful of military who would search every train that came through.

3 continents here

Was close to being assaulted/potentially kidnapped at Victoria falls by a horde of Zimbabweans and it was partially my fault.

What an evening

what percentage of posters have been arrested in a foreign country.


Not arrested but, I threw a bunch of paper airplanes off my hotel balcony in Kowloon. I saw cop cars pulling up, and pointing at me so I went to my buddy's room across the hall. We watched Hotel Mgmt. and 6 cops search my room through the peephole. They finally just left. they put a lock on my room so it wouldn't open.

I had to go to the desk later and get a lecture, then they let me in.

I’ve been to South America, Europe, and Australia.

Would be nice to do Bangkok/Hong Kong/Singapore on a big trip in the future.

Never had any desire to visit Africa, aside from maybe Egypt or Cape Town.

I've been to Europe, Asia, and Africa. Had a trip to South America planned but Covid ruined that.

Currently on the beach in Bora Bora. But that doesn't really count towards any continent.

Stationed in Italy for three years. I have no desire to visit the others except for Antartica but I don't see that in the cards.
