What Country Would You Like To Geocache In.

January 8, 2004

Just for fun I would love to travel to the U.S. and try some Geocaching up there. I am sure there would be lots of interesting places to visit during the hunts, although I have been told that your caches are, for the most part, a lot easier to get to than ours. One things seems certain, there are plenty to choose from in the U.S.

Which countries would other Geocachers like to travel to and why?

I would like to caching in Spain. My best friend lives there and I think it would be nice to go caching when I visit.

Oddly enough, I would like to go to a place very close to you, New Zealand. After seeing the great views of the country in The Lord of the Rings I keep thinking how cool it would be to go there. Eastern Australia would be nice to take in while in the area too!

Australia...because I've been there and want to go back.

Australia is good!

New Zealand is a country I will definitely go some day. It would actually be cool to move down there.

Meanwhile, I'd be happy to search caches anywhere I go. I'll search my next foreign caches in Thailand in February, and trips to Central Europe and the US have been on drawing table at times.

Iceland. Great landscape and almost no tourists. Many great places to hide a cache. But: do not disturb the trolls and elves living there!

January 8, 2004

The Land of Oz would be great! My family lives Down Under and we hope to visit this Christmas. With my sister and her family into geocaching (RAV 4 Raiders in the Adelaide area), my father looking into purchasing a GPS, and my mother trying to talk her husband into buying a GPS it is likely that we will have a few family caching outings while there. Another plus to visiting Australia in December is that the weather is a little warmer there than it usually is in western NC.

As others have said, anywhere there is a cache is a good place to cache!

Off Topic: Back off you knob. - Strage Brew is a great classic movie

On Topic: Italy. I've always wanted to visit, and why not cache while I was there.

I had dinner last night with a couple of guys from Adelaide. It sounded pretty nice, I'd start there and work my way north following summer back to my home hemisphere.

Amen brother! I passed up a chance to live there when I was young and stupid.

I think 7 of the 10 greatest hikes are supposed to be in New Zealand.

Austrailia, New Zealand, the UK, Germany and some assorted tropical Islands top my list.

If you make it to the US try a few around this one located near some red sandstone bluffs outside Las Vegas. I think you might like it. (Take a look at the topo for the area.)

Well, my wife would love to go to Italy some day, so I guess I can put that one on the list of possible countries to cache in

January 9, 2004

Ireland (I've been once and I want to go back!), Germany, England and Egypt.

1.1k · January 9, 2004

Italy would have to be my first choice, other than where I already am. Then Scotland, Belize, Costa Rica, Spain......the list could go on and on but that pretty much covers the top 5.

January 9, 2004

awwwwwww iceland would be great......the greatest unspoiled trove of blonde beauties in the world....though irelands redheads would be nice

January 9, 2004

The Faeroe Islands. I'd like to hide a cache on Tristan da Cunha, a British colony in the South Atlantic.

January 9, 2004

Japan--Oh wait a minute--I've already done that.

January 9, 2004

Australia.....bcos i'm starting to forget what home looks like

I love the English countryside, and actually dream of geocaching there! I often look at the UK cache map to see if there are new caches in the areas of England that I am familiar with (south around Portsmouth and northwest in Cheshire). There are such great public right-of-way paths through farms, and so many quaint villages, and ancient antiquities to see. The last time I was in England was in October 2001, just a couple of months before I started Geocaching. I'm really looking forward to going back again and finding my first cache there (perhaps this summer). (by the way - this is a great topic)

I will be in Spain next month. Unfortunately, the closest cache will be over 50 mi away and I will be short on time.

I spent a week in Thailand a few years ago. The people I went with were content to stay at the hotel, or visit the usual tourist sites. I grabbed a bike from the hotel, toured the countryside and encountered places and things that most tourists would never find. I had a blast (while everyone else I was with was sitting by the pool). I'd really love to go back and find some geocaches there because I'm sure they'd bring me to other interesting places that I missed.

I'm planning a trip to China in 2005. I'll be going to play the sax on the Great Wall, but I'm sure I'll get some geocaching in too.

I think it is what you would do not could do. Where would you go if you were in the peak of health, with unlimited funds, and no job?

BTW hang in there Sparky. Moms 73ish and we drag her along on hunts. She has had surgery on;

Hip - replacment

Knee - replacment both of 'em

back - fused disk

Thigh - 2? plates

I won't go into my saga with kienbocks.

Just do what the PT tells you to do and don't cheat.

hmmmm....peak of health, unlimited funds, and no job.....2 out of 3 ain't bad, I guess! Well, I'd have to say Antarctica.....always wanted to go there. Seriously. Barren, desolate, frigid.....a lot like my exwife in many ways, except for the fact that I'd like to see Antarctica, but not her. I get a kick out of really, really, really cold weather! Yeah....that's where I want to go!

New Zealand, in part because I've been there. Its really a great place. When you're driving, everything's covered in this lush green grass. I'd really like to go back, even if I wasn't caching.

Never been there, but have seen lots of beautiful pics of it. Another place I'd like to go is Ireland, because I'm mostly Irish, and the country is so beautiful.

(snipped)I'd like to hide a cache on Tristan da Cunha, a British colony in the South Atlantic.

I've always wanted to go there but would have to stay quite a while between ships.

We would like to go right now and do some caching in a country where there is sun´and hot temperatures - and cold beers/drinks ;-)

January 9, 2004

England and Germany - home of my ancestors and some close family. I haven't looked into it but there must be a locationless dealing with castles. There are probably many traditional caches on or near castles. I love castles.

I want to drive down to Cabo again, this time cache my way down, drinking Coronas, ever in search of the next Sub-Agencia.

January 9, 2004

New Zealand! And that's all I'm gonna say about that because Faile would hit me if I said any other country

January 9, 2004

Copenhagen, just because I love it there.

Edit: Denmark

I will probably be geocaching in Chile by the end of February! Looking forward to that!

Sweden or the UK are just two of many countries I'd like to visit for that purpose.

I'd love to visit the beautiful United States of America, not only for geocaching. California for instance, where it all started would be great I think. But with all that tightened airline "security" it almost looks like foreigners aren't welcome there anymore - makes me feel more like a terrorist suspect than a tourist Well, maybe it gets better next year

But it's also great to discover all those beautiful places Germany has to offer. And I'm glad that there are still so many caches out there waiting for us to be found.

LOTR has impacted my choice- New Zealand. I've always wanted to visit Austrailia. I'll include England as well (might be visiting Cambridge in late May).

January 9, 2004

Malaysia for me. Finding caches like Flower Fruit Mountain

and other, really going on expedition for days and hacking a way through dense jungle...

January 9, 2004

I'd love to try Finland in the winter. Maybe walking over the ice to an island cache. Or needing an ice-scraper to read a clue for a multi. Or a snow-shovel to find a cache. Or having to translate a non-English information sheet, and not quite knowing if we got it right.

Ah... we're doing this in 6 days...

I will be in Chile in March. Have already looked, and there are NO GECACHES in the part of Chile I'm visiting! So someone, quick... hide one around Coyhaique!!

My brother is in Seoul, South Korea right now on business, but I wouldn't let him borrow my GPSr! I'd like to hop around the globe with him sometime when he takes his business trips to places like Korea, Japan, Finland, Germany, England, Brazil, Italy, etc.

If everything works out we will be in England and Scotland in march so I hope to do some caching there.

Other then that...A foreign country?...California I guess.

In no particular order:

Ireland, for obvious reasons of heritage; I would love to make a return visit.

England, because of all the great cache experiences I've read about by lurking in the U.K. forums.

Finland, because they seem extra considerate of foreigners by posting cache descriptions in English, and because of "getting to know" folks like Divine and Captain Morgan here in the forums.

New Zealand, even though I haven't seen the LOTR movies, I've always wanted to go there, and I've made a long-distance buddy there through my involvement in geocaching.

Little Leprechaun would vote for Australia because of her obsession with The Crocodile Hunter (although she thought he was stupid to have his baby tucked under his arm at feeding time).
