Just found this cool little site that helps you build a map of the countries you’ve been to. And its doing something smart (view source and look at the img tag id=”world-image”) .

So here goes:

create your own visited country map

A quick run-down:

• USA - Obvious. Too bad you cannot mark your “home” country a different color.
• Mexico - Juarez - twice (once in college, once on a road trip with my best friend Doug
• Anguilla - Honeymoon. Between two hurricanes. Got sick from the water. Loved it.
• Puerto Rico - Honeymoon (en route). Saw every square inch of the San Juan Airport.
• South Africa - Work. Was there for a little over a month. Did not see as much as I should have. Did get within 2 feet of a lioness, with my arm hanging out the window like a drumstick (until I noticed her).
• Taiwan - Work. Was there for two weeks, and then again a month later for three weeks. Saw a lot more than South Africa, but still did not see as much as I should have.
