States and Countries visited

My friend Julia over at the Ethical Palaeontologist http://www.ethicalpalaeontologist.com/ posted the map of states she's visited and challenged us to do the same. So here's mine.


I've been to airports in California and Washington, but I don't really think that airports should count, so I've left them out. I was born in Georgia and only lived there for the first 9 months of my life, but that counts, right? : )


My international map is pathetic. Other than North America I've only been to South Korea. I'm looking forward to adding England to it this September while at SVP.


Now it's your turn. http://douweosinga.com/projects/visited?region=usa
