Can't recall it being asked already, sooooooo.

What's your contry count?

RULES - you must have cleared immigration, so can't count stopovers where you didn't leave the airport. However, you CAN count places like the Vatican, Hutt River Province etc.

Mine's currently 35.

Met a bloke on Friday who's count is 70. That's more than a third!

Can anyone beat that? Q?

Sitting at 26 so far.

16 I think. I've tended to see a lot of a country rather than see a lot of countries.

Itching to get away again.

Currently sitting at 44 but if i count Scotland, Wales, England and Northern Ireland as seperate that would give me 47.
Havnt been to the America's, Africa or any Pacific countries yet.
Helps doing a Contiki tour through most of Western Europe.
Doing most of South America for 2016 WC

16 (n.o) for me.
haven't done Europe yet.

2014 WC or 2016 Olympics?

I'm hoping to get to Brazil, Argentine, Uruguay, Chile and Peru for the 2014 WC.

Oops typo, 2014 WC mate.
Yes looking to do the countries you have listed. A friend has just come back from working in Colombia and it sounds awesome aswell.

I met a couple of brilliant blokes from Columbia when i lived in Canada. They had the life - would do 6 months in canada for the ski season, then go back and do bugger in Columbia for the rest of the year.

I never had the balls to ask them how they funded such a kick arse lifestyle

.

LOL. Well played

4 - NZ, US, Canada, UK

Have been lucky enough to have seen plenty of Australia as a kid. Our parents took us everywhere and we missed heaps of school as kids.
Was in my mid to late 20's before my first trip overseas, have a 14 yo son who has been overseas more times than he has been interstate, definately need to show him some more of Oz

20 for me

Will be up to 27 in a fortnight

Yep, same. I'm going to park that adventure for when I'm a bit older and washed up and less capable of snowboarding for 5 days straight.

Pretty keen to do it Malcolm douglas style - decent boat behind a troopy and just rough it bush style.

I'm super keen to get to Borneo. My great uncle was killed at Sandakan after the war, so really want to make the sombre trek over and see the place.

Apparently it has some of the most diverse and beautiful rainforrest in the world too.

Where will you be visiting?

15 for me - including Wales and Scotland though, so 13 if you count the UK as 1 country.
