    One day I was listening to a podcast over at the Daily Travel Podcast (Daily Travel Podcast) where they were talking about Chris Guillebeau’s quest to visit every country. I found it interesting and therefore decided to compile my own list. At the time of writing this post it was no longer 193 countries but 195 total countries in the world.

    Object holding the good spirits. Old buddhism books are kept here as they cant just be burned/discarded
    Shrine in the fields of Mongolia holding the good spirits. Old buddhism books are kept here as they cant just be burned/discarded. This is definitely one of the places I would love to visit again

    Without further ado here goes. Countries I have visited are in broad. By visit I don’t mean layovers/flyovers.

    List of countries

    Looking over the list I see that I time of publishing this post, I have only visited 32 countries, which in reality is not as many as I expected. Some of them are big (USA, Russia for example) though and there are a bunch of interesting countries in there (Moldova, Mongolia etc.)

    But then again I only just visited South East Asia a month ago which except for Russia and Mongolia was my first time in Asia and only my third continent.

    Hopefully before New years I’ll be able to cross off a fourth continent by visiting Morocco.

    Stay happy 🙂
