How many cities/countries did you visit in 2015?

[GroundEffect]

I had a very busy year, relative to my normal years, this year visiting lots of places for work and pleasure. I know there are some real jet-setters on PH so I'd like to see just how busy some of you are. By the end of my list, I really hated air travel.

This year:

- Bordeaux, France - 5 times
- Hasselt, Belgium - 1 time
- Rome, Italy - 1 time
- Toronto, Canada - 1 time (for two weeks work though)
- NYC, New York - 1 time
- Cologne, Germany - 1 time
- Amsterdam, Netherlands - 1 time

Next year I hope will be much calmer. Airports fking suck.

Still going, but so far, 4.5 months in...

UK-Belgium-Germany-Denmark-Sweden-Russia-Mongolia-China-North Korea-China-Hong Kong-Vietnam-Cambodia-Thailand almost exclusively overland. A flight via 2 weeks in NZ and now in Argentina, sticking around for a bit but hoping to make the continental US overland by the summer.

It's been a crazy year off so far

I really dont mind airports at all, get there early go sit in the little lounge bit most airports have and have a drink and browse the web until your flight is called, whats so bad about that??

If you can relax in the lounge and take it all in, then that's great. When you have customers that still need attention, projects that need managing, seeking out the quietest part of the airport to run conf calls all whilst fighting with technology that does 80% of the job, then not so much.

Norway, Denmark, Ireland, Belgium, The Netherlands, Luxembourg, Romania,

The contrast between the living standards of the first and the last is somewhat eye opening.

I see what you're saying, when I travel it is purely to train people so I don't really need to speak to anyone before I get there or after I leave, makes travelling very peaceful

[Quhet]

New Zealand - Wellington, Christchurch, Auckland
Australia - Sydney, Melbourne
China - Guangzhou
France - Marseille

Hoping 2016 will be more productive

[jazzybee]

Not a comprehensive list, but many of the destinations visited 4 or 5 times this year. I don't think I've been out of Europe this year... and fewer flights than usual - I think its around 50-60 flights this year, was about 75-80 last year. Airports can be a hassle, but I do enjoy travelling which is why I took my current role looking after Europe, it sure beats sitting in the London office with all the office politics that goes along with that.

2015 so far:

Finland: Helsinki and Turku
Sweden: Stockholm and Gothenburg
Netherlands: Amsterdam, Zwolle, The Hague, Utrecht, Tilberg, Rotterdam and Amstelveen
Germany: Hamburg, Berlin, Hannover, Dortmund, Essen, Cologne, Munich
Belgium: Brussels, Gent, and Hasslet
France: Paris
Switzerland: Geneva, Basel, Zurich, Zug and Stabio
Austria: Salzburg and Fuschl
Italy: Venice, Treviso, Padua, Cortina, Milan
Spain: Barcelona and Palma de Majorca
