How many countries have you visited?

[TerraDave]

Forgive me for such blatant advertising, but I just feel the need to brag a bit. Lonely Planet has chosen Croatia as a No. 1 Hot Spot for this year.

They got a couple of facts wrong, but overall, it's a pretty good article.

So, for those that haven't visited yet, now's your chance

I have heard that it is hot. Being discovered by the jet set and that sort of thing.

Dubrovnic (sp) has had a big reputation for a while. I had the chance to go to Istria (north adriatic coast) for work last year. During truffle season. It was a good trip.

But the real question, will Albania be the next Croatia

You can now add England to my list. Although Heathrow to Gattwick isn't really much to boast about...

Not counting airports (such as Singapore), or places I was too young to remember (such as Malawi, when I was 2):

Australia
New Zealand
USA
Ireland
UK
France
Italy
Switzerland
Zimbabwe
Zambia
South Africa

Plan to add at least Canada, Mexico, Belgium, Netherlands, Germany and Denmark in the next 2 years though

 

[Ferox4]

I think I have them all...

• USA (46 of 50 states meaningfully visited, not just driving through - Alaska, N. Dakota, S. Dakota and Wyoming left)

• 
  
  Dude! You HAVE to check out Wyoming - Yellowstone aside (which is beautiful, just packed in high season) there are the Tetons, Flaming Gorge (which straddles the Utah/Wyoming border), Cody (rodeo capital of the world, baby! ), Devil's Tower (Close Encounters), the Bighorn Mountains and much much more. Certainly not a cosmopolitan trip, but if you like the outdoors Wyoming rocks.
  
  I've got 8 US states left
  
  and my meager international list:
  
  Austria
  Hungary
  Italy
  UK
  France
  Canada
  
  Cheers

United States
Canada
Iceland
Luxemburg
Germany
Austria
Switzerland
Mexico
Portugal
Spain

The palace of Alhambra in Spain is absolutely gorgeous. It makes castles/palaces I've visited in northern Europe of the same period look like hovels (IMO). If any of you have the opportunity to visit Alhambra run don't walk.

 

[Mod_Bod]

Asia must be next on my list!

Loved the Alhambra too (actually I found great castles all over Spain). Well here my relatively short list, compared to some.

Canada (9 out of 10 Provinces; none of the 3 nothern Territories yet)
USA (25 or so States, mostly in the eastern half of the country)
Dominican Republic
Mexico
UK
France
Argentina
Chile
Spain
Portugal
UK (Gibraltar only)

Next trip will be Thailand and surrounding countries; then Greece and Turkey in 2006. I find that South America is really lacking on most lists. I found Buenos Aires (Argentina) to be more "European" than some of Europe . It was a massive city that reminded me of Paris or Madrid!
