 Can the sites you visit be tracked by anyone from another location?

Oh yes.....   By more people than you would like to know.... 

Your ISP tracks everything.  Depending on your country they're forced by law to keep records for min. 1 year.

If you're using a private stand-alone computer it's your own responsibility.  If you're using a computer at your work, your co's system-operator might like to have word with you....

Some sites plant a 'cookie' with you i.o. to track your surfing.  (Clear cookies daily !)

If they're suspiscious even law-enforcement agencies can keep track nowadays.
