Travelling
At dinner last night I was asked how many places I have visited. So, I dusted the list that I had complied some time ago and found I have been to 38 countries and around 92 places/cities etc, give or take 5 or 10. I always thought I have been to more places than that. Take my travel schedule this past 6 months. I went to Estonia (Tallin), Slovenia (Ljubljana), Russia (St Petersburg), India (Bangalore, stopover in Paris), Singapore (3 times), Indonesia (Bintan) and US (New York, Anchorage, Fairbanks, Katmai, stopover in Chicago). I think some of the Singapore nutz may have done even more travelling. Is there world really becoming smaller? Maybe it is because we are tired of the same places? I did more travelling just to be away from London. I wonder if New York will tie me down...

You can make your own map of the countries you've been to on http://douweosinga.com/projects/visitedcountries or on http://www.43places.com.
Also, if you've been to 100 countries, you can join the Travelers' Century Club. Although most people look like they're 100 yrs old by the time they reach that goal.
Using the Traveler's Century Club very liberal criteria, I have been to 51 countries. 50 more to go!
