Ukraine, Canada and Italy come to mind. Not many but topical at least.

There is an exchange student from Tajikistan I have been hoping to take but circumstances prevent that right now.

Michigan. Folks in Ohio don't recognize that state up north as part of the Union.:D

This year's year football match with the team up north looks to be a repeat of last year's.

My Estonian friend (an ebay geek at the time, he just recently started teleport.org for 'post national' workers) was especially fun. We met paragliding and he said, "hey, you have a plane. Could we go fly in it sometime?"

I assumed he wanted an aerobatic flight and before the flight gave the whole "here's how to use the parachute, here's what we'll be doing in flight talk..."

He had a great time (here's the video - the reaction 1 minute in is classic). But afterwards he told me "I didn't realize we were going to go upside down - I just assumed parachutes are required."

Oops!

It counts Paul. On related note couple weeks ago somewhere up north we borrowed a bike from a girl for a quick ride. Thanks God we had Captain John there. He can talk to LE :D:D

Iceland.
One of my best friends from Chico State is from Reykjavik. His daughter is now starting a class for Wow airlines. Last January, she needed 300 hours more so she could get a class assignment so we had her come out to stay with us in Roseville, gave her the keys to the plane and let her have at it for a few months so she could get her hours. She had lots of fun, gained valuable experience and saw California like Huell Howser.

Bold enough? I still can't wipe the smile off my face!
For this tourist, it was amazing opportunity to be able to fly up the Hudson corridor.

It was an honor to fly with you, kind sir.
