How many countries have you visited?

[BCoetzer]

How many countries outside South Africa have you visited?

Is your passport a treasure trove of stamps from around the globe, or is it patiently waiting to collect its first stories?

 

[Johnatan56]

Well, in Europe currently, so guess that's easier. Also will exclude airports, so only 2+ days.
In Africa: 7
In Europe: 15
Asia: 2

But it's a bit of an odd one for most South Africans, e.g. going Johannesburg to Cape Town is the same as Budapest to Paris.
And I would also say e.g. Germany, going Berlin is different to Munich, it's big, or France countryside vs Paris, or Venice vs Rome.

Still interesting how stamps are slowly going to disappear since everyone is going electronic. My European passport has no stamps, yet it's the most countries I have visited.

France (kind of, it counts because their POS airport layout forces you to enter the country before you can go to your connecting flight and the layover was 8 f-ing hours, I did set foot completely outside of the airport to "plant the flag")

15. Twenties were fun. Now it's time to stay put with family and a bond It's too expensive to travel with a family. Hoping for a work trip but since everyone is now so good at working online (thanks Covid) work trips are few and far between.

Vist Namibia frequently, because that is where the wife's family is. Too poor to travel outside SA. My company was going to send me to China on business, but then Covid hit.

Weren't you the one always punting how everyone should move to Panama because you were doing it for tax benefits or some such?

 

[Cage Rattler]

North Korea?

Won't see this very often:

 

[DrJohnZoidberg]

To the people who have visited over 50 countries, I'm really sorry.
