Heck, I'm not all that well travelled myself (5 countries in all) but I'm a world traveller in comparison.

Dis, it all comes down to priorities. $3000 isn't really all that much if you want something bad enough.
Yeah, I'm still paying for past mistakes and with two high school age kids I've got to be prepared to pay for their's as well!

I hear you about traveling Americans. I've been to just a few more states than you and most people I talk to about it are in awe of how much of this country I have seen. I'd like to see it all though.

I've been to Mexico a few times (but do border towns really count?) and Canada numerous times. Nowhere else yet though. Hope to someday, but family is always the priority for me. Given the choice, I'll always choose to go home and visit.
