I was trying to figure out how your combination of countries could be possible, so am I right in thinking you went to Hawaii then flew to PPT and then to Easter Island?

Direct flight from LAX to PPT. Stayed in PPT almost 2 weeks, then flew direct PPT to EI. Flight home was in reverse with only a day stopover in PPT. However, the 2X for French Polynesia was for two separate trips - one in 2006 and one in 2014. The 2006 trip was the one that included EI.

I'm in the mid 20's.............just by doing a quick count. Living in West Germany for 10 years didn't hurt my odds.

Interesting observation, I've met lots of folks who have never left their home towns/states as well.

So this thread is still alive? It's been quite a few years, so now it's simpler for me to list the 9 countries I haven't been to (and why):

1 Syria (not a good time to visit)
2 Yemen (not a good time to visit)
3 Pakistan (a bit hesitant)
4 Mali (I want to visit Timbuktu but it's currently no-go)
5 Niger (not a good time to visit)
6 Burkina Faso (probably OK except near the borders with Mali and Niger)
7 Papua New Guinea (I'm set to visit the Mt. Hagen sing-sing festival later this year)
8 Dominica (waiting for them to repair hurricane damage)
9 Bahamas (saving for last since I'm fairly sure I'd be the only person in the world ever to have visited every country except the Bahamas)

Hopefully the rest of the posters on this thread have made progress in the years since the first post.
