What's the worst country you've ever spent any significant amount of time in?

[ThamesHawk]

One week in Bosnia in the mid 90s when I was a kid. Enough said.

 

[jamesvanderwulf]

I went to Canada for a week once. Turrible...

 

[thewop]

I guess Guatemala, but it could be a really great place if not for the gangs, drugs, and military checkpoints everywhere.

 

[Finance85]

Mexico. In fairness, I've never been to any of the resort areas.

 

[mnole03]

I partied with the Haiti-ans.

 

[WorldSeriesChamps2015]

Idk how to answer this one since I’ve never been out of the USofA.

 

[SIXERS24]

MEXICO sucks now!

 

[SeaPA]

Then it shouldn’t take much thought to narrow down to your only possible answer.

Mexico but we only went to Tijuana.

 

[TarponSpringsNole]

Egypt. Although the Egyptian Museum in Cairo was fantastic. Otherwise, it’s a filthy filthy place.

 

[veryold]

I went to South Dakota once.

 

[The Tradition]

Gainesville?

 

[NDallasRuss]

I guess I'd also say Mexico, but to be fair the other countries I've been to have been pretty nice.

 

[SigMaintHawk]

Korea

 

[Obviously Oblivious]

Mexico, although not terrible but definitely poorer. Canada is the nicest country I’ve visited, much like the USA but more scenic, cleaner and better overall. If we annexed Toronto it would instantly be the nicest city in America.

Edit: Canada is second nicest country overall. Switzerland is the best IMO.

 

[mjtommy]

South Korea north of Seoul for 15 months.

 

[Chishawk1425]

Iraq 2003-2004

West Hancock eh? Former NIC rival.

 

[Legend12]

Tunisia.

 

[Hendy hawk]

Vietnam

 

[binsfeldcyhawk2]

Saudi Arabia. Hate that place

You should move there.

 

[Obviously Oblivious]

You should move there.

I may someday, but it won’t be a result of your urging. You should get out more perhaps.

Trigger, just giving a friend a push.

 

[3boysmom]

Hmm. Probably the DR because I like Mexico and Jamaica better. Best, hmmmm. French Polynesia was probably the best but damn it’s hard to pick. Mostly because it’s gorgeous and warm as opposed to Iceland and Ireland that are not warm.

 

[SSG T]

Saudi, Iraq, Kuwait, Egypt (Sinai)

The only place in Mexico I've been to is Yucatan, it was fantastic compared to the above.

 

[OutbackBowl2017]

West VA. Third world.

 

[Chishawk1425]

Vietnam

Thank you

Kuwait is fabulous coming to and from Iraq!

 

[Bobcat07]

The only places I've visited outside of the US are:
Grand Cayman Island
Cozumel, Mexico
Playa del Carmen, Mexico
Juarez, Mexico (a dumb idea lol)
Vancouver, Canada.

So by default, Mexico was the worst because of that dumb trip to Juarez. But overall, the other places I went to were pretty nice.

 

[Kakaw83]

Jamaica is a terribly poor country. Went to an all inclusive for a week. Left the resort 3 times, did not feel safe. I don’t think I’ll go back.

Explains a lot about you.

Pretty much this.

Why go to Juarez? The most I would do is travel through it. Even then, I'd probably still try to avoid it. Even if it were to add hours to the trip.

Thanks, Battle. Where were you at? I was Mosul to Kuwait. Transportation so saw it all.
