How many countries have you been to?

[Ronstar]

7 or 8 if Caribbean ports of call are countries.

[itsmyparty]

35 or me. Hoping to add New Zealand next year.

[Goonie]

4 for me....the U.S.A., Canada, Haiti, and England.

Thoroughly enjoyed my time in Haiti, and would love to go back there some day!!!

[DFA]

30 for me, hope to add a lot more once we FIRE.

Thanks.

Just 8 countries for me, not counting airport stops.

Thinking about the other thread on states, roughly only ~ 12 for me, just a few more than countries. But that's not counting states we just drove through to get somewhere, w/o really staying to take things in.

Add DC and Puerto Rico, but they aren't states or countries.

According to the list at this link, I have been to 58 countries. That's a lot more than I would otherwise have said, since the list is so detailed that a lot of them are just little island nations and such that I wouldn't have counted.

I have no intention of engaging in further international travel as it is "not my thing".

Wow, a true world traveler.

So, does W2R stand for World to Roam?

[pixelville]

56 for me.None added to the list for past few years, post semi-retirement. Since there is no longer work stress, the desire to get away and decompress has gone down for DH. I still have itchy feet
Others experience this post-retirement?

Favorite are New Zealand, Italy, Egypt.
Peru and Kenya/Tanzania are top on my to do.

[braumeister]

Nice map.
I have 17 visited.
Lived for at least a year in three.
Spent at least a month in five.
Spent at least a week in ten.

Or maybe Want To Remain (at home).

[Midpack]

Wow, 56 and 58, I'm jealous. I'll never match that...

[NW-Bound]

22 for me. Of course, airport stops do not count.

I think my wife's list would have been about 6 more. She has been to all the countries I have been to except one, and also did some travel on her own.

[Meadbh]

26 to date. Would like to see Australia, New Zealand and India.

[Rowdy]

37.

[Nemo2]

Thanks to Alan's "help for the technologically illiterate" I'm now able to post my own map:

[Dreamer]

13 for me. Hope to make it more someday.

[CMH in CO]

Only 3-Canada, Mexico and New Zealand. New Zealand's south island was surprising. I expected tropical. But it was a mixture of wet and dry. There were areas that I could have sworn I was in the Colorado mountains.

Between your user ID "CMH in CO" and the Colorado mountain comment, I think you can add 1 more, USA.

Nice link, I got 32 with the list. But I question the total. For example, I wouldn't count the US Virgin Islands as a separate country. Didn't go through the other Caribbean locations that were on my list, but I always thought some of them were parts of other countries.
