US.... Too many states to list. Still haven't visited Hawaii, but it's on my list. In fact, I'd move there if I could sell my house here (which I can't). I was even looking at house prices there yesterday.
Europe... Germany, France, Iceland, Greenland, Belgium, Luxemburg, Switzerland. For the most part, Europe disappointed me. This was a long time ago, but you can see the American influence everywhere. The TV played American shows (in other languages), and the music was all American too. At the restaurants we drank Coca Cola.
The one thing that killed me was the skiing - Went skiing in Switzerland, came back home to the states, went skiing once, and then never again. Once you've gone skiing in Switzerland, the US is a waste of your time. In Switzerland it was two hours uphill in a train at dawn, skiing downhill was an all day event with restaurants along the way. In the US it's fifteen minutes in line, ten minutes up hill, for five minutes of downhill skiing.
I've also been to Canada and Mexico. Mexico is like a third world country, and Canada is lot like the US except for cleaner and the people are nicer.
