Question for all you non-US guys. Have you been to the US? Please select a choice and it would be great if you could make a post with details about your time here (how long, when, what was interesting, etc) or why you are not interested in visiting America. All votes should be accompanied with a post, please.

Especially you guys who post here a lot, don't be shy.

This is in conjunction with a tourism agency that contacted Subsim.

Many thanks, and happy Thanksgiving!

"No, but I would like to some day in the distant future"

Been wanting to visit the States since little kid, but has no money for a trip like that.

Onkel Neal · 11-25-09, 11:14 AM

Yep, but if you ever come to the Lone Star State, I can set you up with lodging

11-25-09, 11:16 AM

By tourist agency you mean...the CIA?

Onkel Neal · 11-25-09, 11:21 AM

Haha, I hope not

No, a commercial agency.

"No, but I would like to some day in the distant future"

It has crossed my mind a couple of times, exactly where and when is pretty much unknown.

And I can certainly set him up with a trip to Treasures or The Men's Club

Only if you want a lifetime ban to such places.

Many times in the past for periods up to three months at a stretch. These days though, generally get down to Seattle once or twice a year for three or four days.

Would love to, but would probably have to stay for a while to go to all the places I'd like to go to. Tis a rather big place...and that's just Texas!

Same here, though a trip stateside would be fu at airport security, I would have to aswer yes to all questions like do you know how to handle explosives, make explosives etc

I spend, on average, about a month out of each year in the US. They always pick me for the "random" security check and baggage search.

My last US visit was to the Subsim meet in Houston last year. It was really good even though I had to mix the pleasure with a bit of business in San Francisco on the way home.

I've also been on four other business trips to the US, visiting Boston, San Jose, LA and Salt Lake City.

If you can't make it to America, feel free to visit (and spend money) at one of our thousands of conveniently located embassies all over the world.

*Burp!*
