Countries I have visited...

How mnany countries have you been to? This is a question that I get asked a lot. It's also a question I ask a lot. It's a silly game people like to play when they're talking to other travelers. It's all about bragging rights and who is the most hard core traveler. I must admit, I've gone out of my way to visit countries just for the sake of that new stamp in the passport. Is it wrong? Shouldn't we just go to places that are new or different? Probably, but once you start collecting those passport stamps, it's hard to stop!

What follows is a list of countries of been to, in order, with a photo or two and a few comments on each.
