Visited Countries, Visited States Maps

August 29, 2008 by Gail

Anf found an updated version of the visited countries and visited (USA) states map, which gives much more control over how the map looks than the site I used back when I did this at the beginning of 2004.

24 countries thus far, which isn’t many, only 5 more than when I last did this, but then again in the last four years or so I had many other, more pressing priorities. And granted, I have travelled a great deal in some of those countries and hardly any in others.

Which is also the case for my USA map:

30 states thus far and 20 to go, but my goal is to visit all the provinces in Canada first. I’ve visited seven, lived in five, and I have yet to see the north (Yukon, Northwest Territories, Nunavut), and most of the Atlantic provinces (New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, Newfoundland). It’s one of the reasons why I still live in Toronto, to get to Quebec and the Maritime provinces more easily.

So many places to go, and I’m already 36. Half my life I’ve been on this quest to see the world, whether it’s by airplane, boat, rail, bus, or car. When I tell people how far I drive in one weekend, they look shocked but it’s what I do as a means to travel and I quite enjoy it. All I need is music and the open road and I’m happy.
