    COVID prevented a few more being ticked off and I imagine now having to be a responsible parent will mean not many will be ticked off for a while!

    Done a fair few of those. (Including Venezuela on a day-trip lol). But a question -  I drove through Yugoslavia to get to Greece many years ago can I convert all the places en route into their "new" country names? 

    I'm working on visiting all 50 US states (and DC) - at the moment I am missing just Alaska, Vermont, Delaware and Connecticut.
    Nah it’s like doing the 92. New stadium you have to do it again. 


    Yeah but I don't subscribe to the 92 rules. It's like saying just because Woolworth no longer exists I never went there.
  • United Kingdom isn’t a single country 
    The list in the initial post is of sovereign states, not countries. Whether there are 194 or 195 in the world, I believe is disputed as some don't count Palestine.
  • Taiwan (Nationalist China) isn't on the list 
  • I'm a bit confused by the list, I couldn't copy the original text and strike throughs. 

    I've been to 40. I try and do a new one each year, to keep my country count above my age. I've been to all continents but need to revisit Africa to have seen football and played golf on each one.

    I think my only country not mentioned yet is Bolivia. 
  • edited July 2023
    Done 30…..including The UK…not bad.
  • France,Holland,Belgium,Germany Austria,USSR,Egypt,USA,India, China ,Japan Greece, Italy,Mexico, Canada.Barbados.Spain.
  • Taiwan (Nationalist China) isn't on the list 
    I always think that Hawaii is a different country and not part of the USA.

    Thought I was pretty well travelled, but some of you put me to shame. 
    Amazing also to realise just how far I am from visiting every country - I haven’t even visited a fifth of the countries in the world.

  • Similar to Lord Romford above, thought I was extremely well travelled.
    Now I see how many more countries I have to visit.

    Ticked off 34 countries though. 
    Including Iran Madagascar & Peru.
  • Anyone been to the Antarctic or Arctic?
  • I've been to Chile which nobody has mentioned yet, and Paraguay, almost many others that have been mentioned!
  • If we are including the Canary Islands and other islands I'm claiming Jersey and the Isle of Wight as well!

    I'll have Sheerness on that basis.

    How many countries have you seen a sporting event on, a few I imagine.

    60. I did a really good tour of Central America a few years ago which "ticked off" 5 countries, many of which are a bit dodgy...
  • Didn't see Aruba on the list.... Anyone else been there?
  • edited July 2023
    As far as I can see, of the ones not already mentioned I can help us tick off:

    Azerbaijan
    Georgia
    Kazakhstan
    Kyrgyzstan 
    Mongolia 
    Bulgaria
    Romania 
    Belarus 

    Apologies if any are doubles 

    OP needs to do a thread audit and produce a list of what's left 
  • Antigua and Barbuda, Belgium, Costa Rica, Estonia, France,Greece, India, Indonesia, Ireland (CAFC pre season tour 97),Italy, Kenya,Malaysia, Maldives, Malta,Morocco,Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Seychelles,  Singapore,Spain, Sri Lanka, Tanzania,  Thailand,Trinidad and Tobago, Turkey,United Arab Emirates,  United Kingdom, USA.

    That's 27 in total that I've ticked off. Next one on my list will be Mauritius in November hopefully.

  • I can offer Belarus and Bulgaria

    Yes, but can’t really remember it, probably old age. In fact just realised I’m going back there in February as well.
  • I think I’ve been to around 50, many for work. Some of those I couldn’t see ticked off previously are below. 

    13. Bahrain, 21. Bolivia, 66. Ghana, 75. Honduras, 87. Jordan, 91. Kuwait, 98. Libya, 127. Nigeria, 132. Pakistan.

  • I've done 83. Lots of them while on a year long trip around the world in the 1970's.  We still love travelling so added quite a few since then.
    In Mallorca at the moment!  
  • England, Scotland, Wales, Irish republic, France, Belgium, Spain, Germany, Czech Republic, Italy. Going to Denmark next month.

    I'm working on visiting all 50 US states (and DC) - at the moment I am missing just Alaska, Vermont, Delaware and Connecticut.
    Done the same re Yugoslavia, Italy down to Athens and back up via Belgrade to Austria....I'd say you can 'convert'.....I do anyway.

    Been to Chile, seen Paraguay from across the river at Iguazu but never crossed the river. Mate of mine is a 'bit' of an anorak when it comes to ticking things of (his not Charlton btw) and said that was a sin not going to Paraguay when I was so close.
  • 45 for me by the end of my current trip. More than I would have ever thought I would do when I was younger.
