I read an article in Gulf News this week about a man whose goal it is to travel to as many countries as his age.... which seems more attainable than going for 'every country in the world', or even 100+ (they have their own club, called the Travelers' Century Club).
So I started making my list...
- Netherlands
- Belgium
- Luxemburg
- Germany
- Denmark
- Sweden
- Norway
- England
- Scotland
- Ireland
- France
- Spain
- Italy
- Sardinia
- Switzerland
- Liechtenstein
- Austria
- Czech
- Poland
- Vatican
- Turkey
- Dubai
- Abu Dhabi
- China
- Tibet
- Philippines
- Australia
- Singapore
- Japan
- United States
- Canada
- Cuba
- Thailand
(check the list of countries to see how the counting works according to TCC)
I'm debating wether I've visited Andorra and/or Monaco, but the people who would know -parents- are on holiday :) so we'll have to sit that one out...
It's safe to say that I will try to keep the score up there. And I know that Shu'll want to join me -or beat me, more likely ;)-

As categorized by TTC, I've set foot in 13 countries/regions : Abu Dhabi, Belgium, Canada, China, Cuba, Dubai, England, France, Japan, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Scotland, and United States - in this case, I'd rather admit that I'm only 13 years old. :) But since my travel style tends to lead me to stay in a country for an extended time period, likely I will stay younger than I look. ;)
Woeeehaaa.. "TCC is a NONPROFIT NONSTOCK CORPORATION"...
On their "join page" I counted multiple amounts while reading how to become a member, hihi.
Here's mine counting, I rarely celebrate my birthday so that why the total does not match my age :)
Netherlands, Belgium, Luxemburg, Germany, England, Austrua, Italy, Switzerland, Finland, France, Andorra, Tunisia, Egypt, USA, Mauritius.
Dude, first of all, me thinks you are cheating!!! Aren't Abu Dhabi and Dubai both U.A.E.? Or is my topo completely off?
As for mine: NL, Belgium, Luxembourg, France, Spain, Morocco, Italy, Switzerland, Austria, Croatia, Czech Rep, Germany, UK, Denmark, Turkey, Egypt, U.A.E., Ethiopia, Rwanda, Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, DR Congo (but only just, jump over the border :-), Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Indonesia, and as of next month: Russia, Mongolia and China!
And -bleep- ..... like with friends on Hyves, you seem to have beat me on this one too!!
I will have trouble sleeping tonight.
