    I think you win this thread sir! How did you manage to visit so many? Was it backpacking or for work or something else?

    I had grandparents that were very concerned about the idea most Americans hold that they are culturally superior to everyone else so they wanted me to experience other cultures.

    We need more grandparents like yours in the world! I'm sure you have great stories to tell.

    Not cheating to include your home country :-) Republic of Ireland is in Ireland. Did you mean to include Northern Ireland?

    Sadly only 4. (US, Canada, Mexico, Bahamas). So many more on my bucket list, but I hate flying.

    I hate it, too. I've found that visiting the airport bar pre-flight makes it much better.

    Here's my list - 14 so far:

    US (home)
    Canada
    Thailand
    South Korea
    France
    Italy
    Belize
    Guatemala
    Hong Kong
    New Zealand
    Australia
    Ireland
    Mexico
    Iceland

    Hopefully many more to come!
