I have never been able to figure out what constitutes a trip for an American who lives overseas.

Let's say that I live in Israel and my last visit to the US was April 2006. Since then, I have flown TLV-MXP, TLV-CDG, TLV-FRA and TLV-MAD.

April 2007 comes and I fly back to the States. Am I only supposed to list Israel, or also Italy, France, Germany and Spain?
