[world map]

All my life, I've been interested in traveling. Although I've managed to visit 48 of the 50 American States (missed North Dakota and Maine), foreign travel is what I like best. I decided to make a list of foreign trips, mainly for myself, but here it is in case anyone's interested. These entries don't count short visits where I didn't spend at least one night.

Here you can see the flights I've taken, foreign and domestic:
