Technically I did it at 29.5 LOL
I agree once 30 hits the dot, it means the marriages, babies and everything will trample over travels

And will get harder to add new countries since there are still your annual trips that are must-do.

Ya that was what I thought about Yemenia to Socotra too.

I feel like I've been to lot of places in the last 14 years, since posting 53, but I'm only up to 83 - although added Russia, and quite a lot of Africa ... map

Those Pacific and Caribbean Islands barely show up on the map
