Have you been to a place no one else has been to?

[MrsTerryPratchett]

I'll start. The idea is you name the place and a fellow MNer has to say if they've been there. However, you don't have to wait until you've been somewhere to post. Post your places and you'll meet the MNers who've been there. You can post 1-3 places (random numbers).

I've been to:

Rwanda
The Whisundays
Cathedral Grove (Vancouver Island)

Thanks, that was me. A great irony in a thread full of people falling over themselves to show off about their travels to the far reaches of the seven continents, I could be the only Mumsnetter who has been up a tall building just outside Wakefield.

I was also going to offer up the WW1 battleships that were sunk in Scapa Flow but seeing how many divers there are on this thread that was probably equally as overrun with us as that place in Australia that was on the first page that I can't remember the name of.

I've been to Bermuda near Nuneaton for a meeting.

As for Huish, since we visited, DH has a very bad joke culminating in a rendition of "A kind of Huish", so at home, it is the Place That Dare Not Speak Its Name.

You won the thread for me with Emley Mast @BarbaraofSeville. So envious.

I’ve been to Paraty, Brazil and Isla del Sol on Lake Titicaca mentioned on last page.

@NeedToKnow101 - were you one of the people who ended up in Gander, Newfoundland?

Krak des Chevaliers Castle in Syria

Pforzheim in Germany (don't bother)

Trabzon in Turkey.

Fair Isle.
Sakhalinsk - grimly fascinating.
Cheyrin Canyon, Kazakhstan.

Also sailed through the Kiel Canal and mapping the nuclear bomb crater on the seabed, East of Barrow Island - we were hiding from bad weather.

My sister lived in Pforzheim for a while. I won't be hurrying back!

@ThisIsNotAmerican - used to see Egypt every so often as a kid, on the way to Burnham Beeches.

Veijle Denmark
Humphrey Head Cumbria
Groningen Holland

I live in an area where there is some really dense brush/undergrowth on steep and relatively inaccessible mountains. In fact I'm sure there is a great deal of terrain like this in the world. Sometimes I look at it from afar and wonder if human feet have ever touched that part of the earth.

I'm from far west Texas.
A few family members live in Midland/Odessa so I've visited several times.

Currently in Cairns, was on Whitehaven Beach earlier in the week and on Magnetic Island the day before yesterday, clearly following the hoardes of MNetters! Nobody but us at Balding Bay Beach though.
Have also been to Mandeville in Jamaica but not as recently.

Yes- been to Timbuktu

Yes- been to Timbuktu... what's it like? I didn't realise it was an actual place till recently

Sandy! And a bugger to get to! But fascinating- was about 25 years ago so may have changed- but would still be a bigger to get to I imagine...

Cocos islands , will think of a couple more

Thank You, I’ve not been to many of the places mentioned either like Australia or Africa so a new bucket list is being made.

It's a lovely place to visit. Small , friendly and so much to do on the lake all year round.

In that case, I have been to Acapulco in Mexico. Just amazing to land on a small landing strip over the endless brilliant whitest sand and bluest sea and sky.

😔Don't want to think what Russian-occupied Donetsk is like now. Totally senseless war.

I am so late to this excellent thread. Sorry Mrs TP, I've got the Whitsundays too. But then I'm a Queenslander... Also got Rwanda.

My three:

1. Kisangani in the DRC
2. Boigu Island in the Torres Strait
3. Bujumbura in Burundi

Ooty in India would be my most remote.

Don't think Dunedin in NZ has been mentioned yet.

I'm also going to throw in Brigham in West Cumbria.

Been to Ooty..😊
