A very good friend of mine who is a travel agent for luxury tours of South East Africa recommended that I list the countries and places that I have been to lend my blogging some credibility. I have never really thought about it. I just assumed that if I wrote something about a place I liked or thought interesting that people would just accept it or not.
Yet, the more I thought about it, why should anyone take any of my travel advice if they think I have been no where. So to that end here is a list of every country that I have been in and actually got out of the airport to experience life there.
I might also been to 49 States in the USA except Alaska but that will be soon added to the list. While hitting all those states (some multiple times) I have driven across the USA 9 times.
Places that I have been. Not including airports.
