Miles to go before I...

I found this cool visited states map via Phil over at The Perils of Caffeine in the Evening.

35 out of 50 ain't too shabby, huh? Sure, I've cheated by including some states (such as Michigan and Indiana) that I've only really traveled through, but I'm counting them for the simple reason that I'm not traveling back east just to see the Indy effing 500 or unfair championship football games. No, sirree. Not while the last 15 states DO have interesting things in them. Like, say, Mount Rushmore or the Great Salt Lake or Robert Redford's beautifully filmed fly-fishing river - that shit's amazing.

There is also that New Englandy hole up there on the right. I wonder if I'll bother. I mean, a friend of mine is getting married up there this fall, but since I'm not invited perhaps I'll pretend that those states can all go to Hell. Not that I'm bitter. I mean, why should be? It's not like he's inviting people he unaffectionately calls "sausage fingers" and not me...

But I digress.  The visited states map led me to the Visited Countries Map. I knew that it was going to be a disappointment, but just seeing all those empty countries continents made the travel bug rear its ugly head. And now? Now, I want to travel, DAMMIT.

All right. That's it. I'm going to have to dump Beard Boy and find myself some rich person to support me and my habits. I mean, this map makes it blatantly obvious that I'm not doing anywhere near a bang up job here. North America and some of Europe? I disgust me.

Update: I got tired of the maps reloading so, they're linked now and here's where you can create your own maps: create your own or vertaling Duits Nederlands.

I want to see J.Mo's map. I bet it's nearly all red.

Shoo, you know it. I bet yours wouldn't be that empty either, what with all that Asia traveling you've been up to.
