Poll question: Diversion - Your favorite country
Edited on Mon Mar-27-06 06:03 AM by entanglement
other than the US of A, that is ;-)

Edited to add: A line or two about WHY you like that country would also help :)

1. Do Brits get to vote for the U.K.?
Or is the point of not including the U.S. to remove one's homeland?

Assuming I'm barred from voting U.K. - I'll have to go for Italy.

Beautiful wine, beautiful food, beautiful men, beautiful music, beautiful art, beautiful architecture, beautiful language ... need one really say more.

3. I've liked all the countries I've been to, all for different reasons
I wouldn't mind racking up a few more because I love travelling. If I could I'd visit everywhere.

6. That's neat. I'd like to visit Europe someday, but right now it's
not even a remote possibility because of $$$ :(

11. Embarrassed to say, but..
Edited on Mon Mar-27-06 11:34 AM by mvd
I've only been to the U.S. and Canada. Right now, I'd rather live in Canada. :-( Canada's close by and doesn't have Bush.

12. I'm going to have to go with Holland
but not because of the sex and drugs. Because of the tulips, canals and dreary weather.

OK, it's because of the sex and drugs!!!!

:smoke:
