Word Asscociation International

I thought this would be a fun game to play with myself. I basically went through every foreign country I have been to adn wrote down the first word or words that came to mind. There are many anecdotes to accompany most, but I will save those long, mostly amusing stories for another time. Some are obvious, others might make absolutely no sense.

Andorra - Mountains
Aruba - Rock formations
Australia - The Harbour
Austria - Schonbrunn Palace
Bahamas - Customs
Barbados - Snorkeling
Belize - Mosquito bites
Belgium - Cherry Beer
Brazil - Fejoada
Canada - Ice Wine
Costa Rica - Blue crabs
Czech Republic - Castle Views
Cuba - Helado
