Countries Visited


I created this page in 2017 to track the countries I’ve visited. I have since added US states and Canadian provinces. My Geocaching statistics do a pretty good job of tracking this, but I haven’t found a geocache in every country I’ve visited, and I’ve found geocaches while in transit through countries (i.e. I haven’t truly visited). Although I do not count transiting through as a “visit”, I still like to track these.

I use two criteria on this page:

  • If I have visited a country/state/province, it means I: a. Spent at least several hours sightseeing, b. Passed immigration (where applicable), and c. Left the airport/train/bus/station (where applicable).
  • If I passed through a country/state/province, it means I was on the soil of the country/state/province or transited through, but didn’t really visit. This means that layovers count, even if I don’t leave the airport or technically “enter” the country through immigration control

On this page, you can see a map and list of the countries, states, and provinces I’ve visited or passed through. If you wish to view the map in higher detail, simply click on it to view it larger. See the changelog at the bottom to see when I last updated the page.
