Flew back and forth occasionally (to visit Mum's side of the family) until I was 10 and we moved back to NZ when my parents split and then flew back to Oz once a year until I was 18. Now in the last 3 years we've gone back and forth a few times between the US and NZ.</p> <p>So, lets say I'm not a stranger to international flights!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-were-you-the-first-time-you-traveled-internationally/page/2#post-643084 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 22:30:18 +0000 Mrs. Monkey 643084@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was 9 and my dad's company had a convention in Switzerland. My parents were allowed to bring one child to each convention, so I went to that one, and my sister went to Spain when she was around the same age. It was a great and cost effective chance to take your kids abroad! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-were-you-the-first-time-you-traveled-internationally/page/2#post-643002 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 22:08:30 +0000 Mrs. Jump Rope 643002@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I went to Canada when I was 19, Jamaica at 24, and Thailand at 26! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-were-you-the-first-time-you-traveled-internationally#post-642938 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 21:48:04 +0000 fussygal 642938@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I went on a cruise to Mexico when I was 15 and went to Germany just last November at 27. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-were-you-the-first-time-you-traveled-internationally#post-642920 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 21:43:33 +0000 prettylizy 642920@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Well, I started crossing the border into the US when I was a baby to go shopping with my parents.

We went to Mexico for a mission trip with my family and church. Since then I have been back to MX twice but for pleasure, ah Cazumel, amd Germany for a mission trip.

It was awesome! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-were-you-the-first-time-you-traveled-internationally#post-642584 Thu, 14 Mar 2013 20:43:06 +0000 Boogs 642584@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Bee: Haha, he makes a good point!</p> <p>Like you I was a teenager when I went to Mexico for the first time.
