A list of all the countries I have visited Countries or where I’ve Been using UN Member states as the definitive list but notable others a listed at the bottom.
Not in 100% agreement with the UN list and its recognition but there are far to many variables and is the most definitive way of doing it (and the most common it seems!). Not so much now obviously but hope to grow quite a bit with travel plans for the next year so watch this space so see more of where I’m going or where I’ve been !
