Jason Gatson Diary: May 28, 2004
Have you been to all 50 states? If not, where have you not had the opportunity to go?
I have been to most of the 50 states, but I’m not sure exactly which states I haven’t been to.
What is your favorite city in the U.S.? Why?
I’ve been to so many cities it is hard for me to pick a favorite. I’ve had great times in many of the cities I’ve been to.
How many countries have you been to?
I’ve been to 8 countries; Switzerland, Germany, Italy, Japan, China, Greece, Mexico, and Canada.
What is your favorite international place to compete? Why?
My favorite place to compete has been Switzerland. I have competed there twice and both times I had a great time competeing and seeing the country.
Do you miss your family and friends when you travel?
I usually try to enjoy the trip because you don’t get to many opportunities to see the world. Usually I am excited to come back and tell my family and friends what all I saw and how neat each different place was.
What is the longest amount of time you have been on the road traveling?
I think my longest trip was about 2 weeks and that was when I went to Switzerland and Germany to compete one weekend in the Swiss Cup and the next weekend in the DTB Cup.
If you could choose anyplace in the World for the Olympics to be held, where would you choose?
I would definitely like to compete in Australia. I heard so many good things about Sydney and how it was such a beautiful place.
