It's fun to see how many others are trying to visit all 50 states. What about international travels? How many countries have you been to so far? I have a friend who is trying to collect as many countries as she can and she's got a lot. Being retired State Department gave her a leg up though. To date I've been to at least 30, with DH visiting quite a few more than that due to business trips. Once I knock out my last 4 states, we plan to start working on my international wish list!

Off the top of my head I think I have been to 14 countries.
We lived in Germany for years when I was a kid. In 1998 my husband and I with a friend did a 3 week motorcycle trip through England, Scotland, Wales and Europe. Also been to Mexico and Canada.

I just went to look at fb as they did a whole, where have you been app several years ago - must have disappeared - I'll take this as an opportunity to try and remember - 34 I think
I think that's all - my Asia and South America is abysmal - I really need to do better there.

35-just went into a site and clicked on the countries.
Doesn't appear you can save it or share it.
Yeah only one for South America for me--Venezuela back in 1984 when it was a port of call on a cruise!
That's not likely going to happen again for awhile...

Not many. Canada, Mexico, Jamaica, Grand Cayman, Tahiti, Bora Bora, American Samoa. I’ve never had a real desire to travel internationally.

I am European. We did visit about 35 US states - several really good road trips- and 33 other countries, mostly in Europe, Central America and Africa. We love to travel and my parents used to travel with my siblings and me. Those are my best memories and I feel privileged we could do the same with our children.

Only two.  Mexico and Canada. However we finally have the time and money (at the same time), to travel and are going to Italy at the end of next month! And we hope in a year or so to add England and the Republic of Ireland. And then hopefully a few more at least after that at some point. |

Having lived in the middle of the US most of my life--only 5 countries--Canada, Mexico, Ireland, England and France. My 17yo son has already surpassed me after his German trip this summer--Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Liechtenstein, France (passed through a tiny corner) and England (Heathrow airport only). He has seen Canada when we visited northern Minnesota a few years ago--we were right next to a small river that serves as the border in a state park. He did throw a rock across the river...
