I was hoping to catch you before you planned Iceland but here goes....
I would skip Blue Lagoon and replace with trip to: Seljalandsfoss (hike behind and continue to Glufrafoss) Then hike to pool: Seljavallalaug Google...both are easy to find Just returned with kids 15 and 9. Was amazing. Hope you have a great time! |

Iceland is a non stop flight for me to join, the logistics of this are nothing compared to some of the other debacles we've been on. ;)

I hope folks don't expect to eat together unless you're planning picnics. Most restaurants don't have a lot of tables.

Congrats on nearing the end of this epic adventure!
My bags are all packed and off to the airport in a few hours and will hopefully get to congratulate you in person soon too:). |
Brilliant ^^
|
Congratulations! We've been lucky enough to have been a part of all this through your TRs.
|
Jason, congratulation on this achievement. Real inspiration. Hopefully after this, you'd still tell us the tales of cool places.
I take a look on your map and can't believe it that you were only been through CGK and DPS of Indonesian airports. Then I sneak into the blog of yours: only 24 hours in Bali. We have over 17,000 islands! ;) Now that the big goal is imminent, I hope you can discover more great details in this world we live in. Again, congratulations. |
So you'll end your quest at 196 and not pursue the others you identified in 2013?

I like the UN list (plus Vatican City obviously) of 194, and think it's a no-brainer to add Kosovo and Palestine since they're both recognized by at least half of UN members...so to me that makes a "must do" list of 196.
There's another 19 places I think are pretty independent, based on independent border controls, currencies, judiciaries, and parliaments: Abkhazia, Aruba, Cayman Islands, Cook Islands, Curacao, Guernsey, Hong Kong, Isle of Man, Jersey, Macau, Nagorno-Karabach, Niue, Somaliland, South Ossetia, Taiwan, Tokelau, Transdniester, Turkish Cyprus, Western Sahara So that list of 215 is what I'm working off currently |

Just remember to bring duty free. Booze is expensive.... I will keep reading updates while flying over to TPE/HKG....speaking of hot... |
Congrats and looking forward to the report!
BTW, have you made it to Antarctica? Kinda crazy if you have made it to every country, but not every continent... ;) |
Greenland
Greenland have some independence from Denmark, and in all cases a certain cultural identity. You must add it to your remaining list.
I wish you'll write a book (many text, few photos), the one that you can read under the order that you wish, by selecting chapter/country..... Thank you for sharing, and please keep traveling. PS: your Flightmemory Map have one main missing route: the transpolar one (SYDEZE or AUKEZE). |
