Can't be bothered to count but a lot.

Cuba (20 years ago) and India favourites.

ditto, word for word, was in Varadero and Havana in 1994, no water sports, no decent food, no all inclusives, plenty of Tecate though, heaven. A month in Goa (and a week in Delhi) would be up there too (1999) Mrs Doc will probably vote for a month we had in Koh Samui, that was great too....oh happy days x

Couldn't tell you off the top my head , but's certainly more than it used to be . I travelled a lot around Eastern Europe and the Balkans , pre the Berlin Wall coming down . Mostly following England . Some of those countries have now fragmented and multiplied ,especially the western Soviet Union .
Can't even begin to think which country was my favourite. USA was great as I drove across from New York To LA. However it's probably a toss up between China and Burma ..........Actually , lets make that Burma.

 

[Biscuit Barrel]

78 countries. Peru and the Cook Islands my fav's

 

[The Mole]

Between 40 and 50 countries. Favourite is Brazil followed by Cuba. The Galapagos were amazing, but I didn't like Quito very much so Ecuador gets "marked" down for that.

I found China very disappointing.

Still, lots of places to go to.

 

[Weststander]

Austria and Canada hold fond memories.
Anywhere Alpine, but Austria has the socialising, friendliness and bar life to go with it.

 

[DNB_Seagull]

England, Wales, NI, Scotland, Portugal, USA, Lanzarote, Spain, France, Greece, Tenerife. Greece was great!

 

[Bill Cassidy's tie up]

Must be me I thought Cuba was the worst advert for communism you could get. Havana bored after about 2 hours of looking at falling down buildings and at museums with nothing in them. Food terrible but then again they don't have much so have never learnt how to cook it I assume . People mainly great.

 

[paul wickens]

Lucky enough to have been to about 60 countries. Best so far have been South Africa, Cuba, Iceland and USA (most
visited before children and a hefty mortgage!)

 

[Petee]

England
France
Belgium (Not really but drove through it)
Germany
Tunisia
Iceland
USA (New York)

Favourite is probably USA shortly followed by Tunisia.

 

[Shuggie]

Over 50 but so am I so countries p.a. a bit on the low side.

I absolutely love travelling and have just taken a new job where I'll be away about 12-15 weeks a year.

2010 was awesome (as the young ones say): 22 countries in one year. Most of them repeats but SA, Mozambique and Swaziland were fascinating places.

Not going to WC this year for reasons covered on other threads but getting on a flight to HK half an hour before kick off on Sat. Then I'll be over the Pacific for the Uruguay game. And somehow I've agreed a meeting in Oregon which starts the same time as the Costa Rica game ... what a pillock! Coming home via West VA and Washington to complete my second circumnavigation.

Always try to do something memorable on every trip, even if it's just a local art gallery. This time it's Richard III at the Oregon Shakespeare Festival. Open air theatre at its best (apparently).

Most unusual thing we ever did: New Year's Eve party overlooking Sydney harbour followed by New Year's Eve party at Mandarin Oriental in Las Vegas the following day. Credit card for that one should be paid off any decade soon.

Travel ... JFDI

 

[footychick]

[Not Andy Naylor]

Must be over 30. USA favourite, but Slovenia is a little gem.

 

[easynow]

32 countries (7 are one day trips though)

Philippines, Indonesia and Japan are my joint favourites. China is also nice.

 

[Alex Alex Dawson oo! oo!]

Enjoyed working in Belgium, Italy and Australia; not unsurprisingly you get a different perspective than when a tourist. Would have liked to work in Germany but didn't have the language.
On holiday, I've really enjoyed Italy (again), Chile, Slovenia, Montenegro and New Zealand but Vietnam is tops.
