Thanks to a link I discovered at Forest Blog, I’ve created a Visited Countries image. I’ve visited all of 4% of the world’s countries. And that includes a bus drive through France on my way from Holland to the UK. At least I excluded Brazil – Sao Paulo airport is not something I want to remember. These kind of things do encourage a list mentality of course. Been there, ticked it off, next please. I don’t even feel I’ve explored much of South Africa, or even Cape Town. There’s a whole world of discovery right outside your doorstep – how many of my neighbours names do I even know?
But back to the link – there are some interesting projects at (onetime?) Google employee Douwe Osinga’s site.
