Last month alone, I visited 4 continents in 2 weeks and added some new countries - South Korea, North Korea, Suriname in South America, French Guiana (smuggled in via dug-out canoe with no Visa or paperwork!) and Libya in Nth Africa. All via Holland!

Been to 42 countries besides the US as counted when I visited them. Some have consolidated (think E/W Germany), some have split up (think former Yugoslavia) since I visited the first time.
