Where Have You Been? Turns Out NOWHERE!!

Worldmap1It's really bizarre, sometimes I'll hook in with a fellow traveler and find myself caught up in spinning tales about places I've been, things I've done, explorations that have unfolded and I think man, compared to anyone I know, I have traveled a boatload.  I'll be chatting it up about charred octopus in Greece, an apartment switch in Spain, a backpacking journey through Switzerland, a TV show in Nicaragua, a volcano trek in Bali, snorkeling in Zanzibar and on and on, you know...just thinking I've been somewhere. Then, I found this little interactive map online--and after I plugged in the countries I've been to, well...its looking like I've not been a damn place (of course, this does not include the handful of countries I've only done plane switches in).  I'm gonna have to fix that straight away, but it's tough because I keep scouting out all these magical places and just want to return to them:  Bali, S. Africa, Baja...it's a hard, hard game this travel bug.  The world is just a mighty big, mighty lovely place.
