Favorite:

Moscow
Sydney
Amsterdam

Least favorite:

Canberra (bad for living, otherwise a great place in which to be raised or to die)
Prague (poisoned by tourists)

It's hard to think of any places I've actually been to that I don't have some good feelings for. Even had to think hard to put down Prague. As far as places I've only heard about, Fresno seems to pop up as a hellhole a lot more than one would expect for a city its size, and Tolyatti in Russia, where the second biggest activity after manufacturing cars is killing journalists who write to much about the first activity, doesn't really sing out much to me as a place I'd like to see.

On another point looking at the other posts, it seems like few people have been out of North America. Is this right, or is it just because foreign cities don't show up on the extremes of hated/loved? Or don't Americans like to travel?
