31 Using the Travelers Century Club List. My husband a few less but some different. And we've been to all the Canadian provinces and more than half the US states (we're Canadians, eh).

More important in my mind: my 17 year old son has been to 12 with us or on exchange and my 14 year old daughter to 11. They've been on 4 continents already!

This world is worth knowing.

After June, I will add the following to my count:

<b>Europe:</b> Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Finland, Germany, Estonia, Russia

This increases my countries from 12 to 19. Woohoo!!!

I intend to increase my count a lofty 3 countries for 2007. Prague and Reykjavik are strong on my list, as are the Greek islands.

Am willing to concede my count if I can go back to my favorite countries and explore further.

I was born in Germany. My parents traveled all over Europe with me when I was a baby. There's photographic evidence, but I don't remember a minute of it! My goal is to see all those countries...again!

Countries I've visited that I actually remember visiting: 7
