Finland, Sweden, Norway Denmark, Iceland.
Then right to left...
Ireland, England, France, Belgium, Netherlands, Luxemburg, Germany, Poland
On the peninsula; Portugal and Spain along with Andorra.
Alpine regions: Switzerland, Lichtenstein, Austria, then on to Hungary, Belarus, Romania, Czech and Slovak republics, Ukraine and Russia.
Uff! Getting there.
Italy, (lets just say Jugoslavia as a collective noun), Monaco, San Marino and the Vatican, Greece, Turkey, Cyprus. Malta, where I now live.

I went to Malta this year on a cruise. It was our first cruise and first trip to Malta. We really liked Malta and wouldn't mind going again for a few days.

Well worth another visit, now that Valletta is the culture capital.

Well. I think slammer is winning on Greater Europe, so let's try Central /South America.

Mexico, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Panama, Surinam, Venezuala, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Chile. (+Tierra del Fuego), Argentina, Uruguay, Brazil.

As ever I've likely forgotten some.

European countries visited - France, Italy, Hungary, Netherlands, Spain, ROI. Small beer compared with most posters here, Europe's a long way from Australia! And all the UK countries.

Countries in Asia, which were quicker and cheaper to visit - Vietnam, Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand. Since arriving in the UK a couple of years ago, have visited India and, of course, Oz.

That's it, apart from two trips around Oz, weekend jaunts to Melbourne and Sydney, and a few weeks in New York. Lots of the world to see yet

Mexico, lived in DF for two years. So let´s go clockwise.
Cuba, Costa Rico, Dom Rep, Panama, Venezuela, Guyana, Brazil, Uruguay, (love to live there) Argentina, Chile, up and down. Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador, and last but not least; Columbia.
Stopped over in Paraguay for two days if that counts.
But did cape horn. I also hold the record for the longest techie trip to plug a CTP into the wall socket... EVER!
lystrup, Copenhagen, Paris, Chicago, Miami, Panama city, Buenos Aires, Santiago de Chile, put the plug in the socket and fired up the old Platedriver, two days later back to DF. And I think I hold also the record for the longest techie trip, 02.01.05 Leeds to Paris and Mayenne until the 18th, then off to Chicago and then down to Mexico, back in Denmark end of October, just in time to be fired when Esko went all Barco.
But in all fairness I was a Esko backliner based in Aarhus and at one time a chef on board a cruiseliner. Oh I forgot Spitzbergen in the Europe category. Sooooo, wanna try me on south east Asia?

Europe - all of them. Although we did a road/rail/boat trip around Europe with the specific aim of seeing every country, so perhaps that's cheating!

I've never been to Australasia though, that's on our list for the future
