I said that. And IMO you can have almost everything in the US, from desert to cows, snow to beaches, skscrapers to tundra. -- nm - marcel Jun 2, 15:55 7
- you'd have to go to Alaska to see tundra and thats practically leaving the country. - Guy Jun 2, 16:01 2
  - Ummm, there is tundra on Mt. Rainier. -- nm - psilotum Jun 2, 16:04 1
    - that was a Vermy shiv, ruiner (and im pretty sure Marcel didnt mean *that* kind of tundra) -- nm - Guy Jun 2, 16:09
- And sometimes it's nice to go someplace where you are a foreigner. -- nm - the liioulu with not done rings Jun 2, 15:56 3
  - *finger to nose* I think that's the experience HK is after -- nm - con_carne Jun 2, 16:02
  - which is kinda hard in a country that borders only to two other countries - marcel Jun 2, 16:01
  - I guess it's safe to tell the locals you're an American now. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Jun 2, 15:59
There were a few people who said there's a ton of experiences in the US (given her list of places) - Will Hunting Jun 2, 15:53 3
- And it can be tougher to backpack in the US too. - the liioulu with not done rings Jun 2, 15:55 2
  - It's true, stuff is just far apart here -- nm - con_carne Jun 2, 16:06
  - generally more expensive as well -- nm - Guy Jun 2, 15:59
