Lebanon (trying to get in there straight from Tel Aviv was fun!)
Was that by land? Is there even a border crossing there? Sounds tense.schmalex said:
(long list)
44 in total. Most of then have been whilst on business, so I haven't really seen that much of them
You meant 42 44 in total. Most of then have been whilst on business, so I haven't really seen that much of them
Grand Cayman is part of the Cayman Islands.. still part of the uk.
Oh and Dubai and Abu Dhabi are two of the seven emirates that make up the UAE so that's the country you've been to.

Never actually done this before.
I think my list is the following which makes 34 countries for 33 years:
Scotland
Wales
England
Ireland
N Ireland
France
Spain
Switzerland
Germany
Finland
Denmark
Hungary
Czech republic
Yugoslavia (as was)
Italy
Spain
Portugal
Cyprus
Greece
Turkey
Malta
Vatican City
Monaco
Tunisia
China
Hong Kong
Macau
Taiwan
South Korea
Singapore
Thailand
Japan
USA
Canada
For me, this doesn't quite tell the whole story as I have visited the same countries multiple times for both work and leisure.... e.g Taiwan about 15 times, Japan 10 times, HKG 5 times, USA 20 times etc.
This year so far for instance, I have done Hungary, the US and Japan and have Spain, Greece, Thailand, China, Hong Kong and Taiwan arranged for the next 3 months. (none of them new for me..)
I think a better measure is the number of stamps / stickers in ones passport.
My current passport (8 years old) has just over 100 stamps in it and only 2 clean pages left. Expecting to fill it this year and waiting to see what happens when there is no space for new stamps....

I got a new passport in February after having only a couple of empty pages left in the old one. I could have kept it going for a bit longer, but I have a few trips planned and didn't fancy applying for a new one from a random city somewhere!
I think the old one had about 60 stamps and 8 visa stickers in it over 7 years.

Bump from the ancient past, but after a summer roadtrip around Scandinavia, I can now add a few more to my list.
I've visited 41 countries in my 30 years so far, mostly since I turned 18 so in the last decade or so.
Done 5 continents, just South America and Antarctica to go although I doubt I'll make the last one!
Country number 42 will hopefully be Morocco or possibly Egypt in 2016.
