Most fun, probably China (regular visitor last 10 years).
Biggest doubts, Myanmar (Burma) in the early 90's.
Biggest scares and near misses, South Africa during a labour riot.

Biggest scare was driving thru the Transkei homeland and we came to a bridge at the bottom of winding road and as we drove over and up the hill we saw a guy sitting on the guard rail wearing a balaclava and holding an AK47 :eek:.

Or one day while my mate was at work in Jo'burg i decided to take public transport to Pretoria, on the way home i missed my stop on the train and being the only white i could feel the eyes burning into me.
Luckily i had a small backpack with an aussie flag on it so they new i wasnt a local , and when i asked a guy about missing my stop and which train to catch they were very helpful.

Might as well add to the list:

Australia
Singapore
Malaysia
England
Austria
Germany
Switzerland
Italy
Czechoslovakia
Hungary
Yugoslavia(as it was then)
Malta
Spain
South Africa
Tenerife(Canary Islands)

That's 15 for me....all when I was younger with the family...

Cheers all.
