Could the rain falling on me, ever fall in another country? Across the pond for example?

Okay, it’s been a long time since I did any geography classes, but I have some recollection of how clouds are formed and can picture the water cycle.

Does this mean that the rain in my country will only ever fall on my country? Or is it possible for water that once fell here to be carried away and to fall in another country? If so, how far? Forgive my ignorance if this is an obviously stupid question.
