Places i’ve visited

Seeing Dean’s post (here) made me curious what my travels look like geographically.  Within the country (click to enlarge):

And the world:

Like Dean, I think it’d be nice to see a little bit more of the southern part of the US.  More importantly, I think that in all my travels I haven’t gotten to know the people nearly as well as I would’ve liked.  There’s a lot left to see in this world and many people to meet.  I haven’t gone on any really exciting trips in almost two years now.  Of course South Africa is on the list for 2010, and I should be able to hop around Europe a bit this summer…maybe Asia is next on my leisure trip list.  Who knows, maybe I could even get some climbing done in Thailand?

    A couple comments:

    1) Those maps always exaggerate where you’ve been. For example, in Britain you’ve only been to London…but even Scotland is colored in. Just sayin…

    2) Sounds like you’ve got a bit of a spree. I am willing to serve as travel agent for a fee. Also, you better visit me.

    3) In no way am I being sarcastic - I really like you blog. Very insightful. The post with both The Prestige and The Incredibles was particularly brilliant.

    1) you’re right, it’s not a complete data set, but it does get the idea across.
    2) i can serve as my own travel agent, and i do plan on visiting you at some point. you’ll be in england for the next few years right?
    3) i’m glad you liked the other posts :) you should probably have commented on that one to say so :P
