Where is the farthest you have ever been away from home? Did you get homesick?

The furthest for me is the Middle East ...... I always get homesick when I leave home to travel anywhere, but I love to travel.

I always forget to answer my own question


I've been to both Alaska and Hawaii, not sure which is farther away, the flights were both awful
I didn't get homesick per se, I was in Hawaii on my honeymoon so I had my ex and it was a lot of fun, but I was ready to come home at the end. For the Alaska trip it was for school and my dad was with the group... but I did miss my mommy

We went to Chattanooga last year for a volkswagen swap meet, then went down into Alabama and Georgia. I wasn't homesick the first night that we stayed in Chattanooga, but got a little homesick the second night because I missed my animals!

I don't know which country would be farther away; Holland. France or Belgium. I was gone two weeks and while enjoying myself immensely it was good to be back home!!

On my own would be Germany - Berlin to be exact. I loved it, went way too fast


With family would be South Dakota, US. Don't remember much as I was only 7!

I don't know really which is further away, Lebanon or Japan. And I wasn't homesick. In Japan I was constantly on the go, seeing everything that I could see.

The closest I've ever been to nowhere is a little place called Ascension Island.

I live in Michigan and the farthest I have traveled was to Florida. I always get home sick. I just can't stand being away from all my furbabies.

I live in Toronto and the furthest I've been from home was when I went to Europe. I didn't really get homesick at all. If anything, I wished I could have stayed longer.

My senior cruise a few years back- we went to several different places in Mexico. I was only gone a week- so i didn't get too homesick, i did have a good time though!
The things i missed the most though was my mom and my furbabies!

When I lived in Lansing, I missed being able to see my parents whenever I wanted. That was before good phone rates were the norm, so phone calls were few and far between also. When I visit my sister in San Diego, I miss my kitties, but I'm able to talk to my folks as much as I want, so I don't really get homesick...besides, vacations (for me) only last about 2 weeks at the most, lol!
