2003 Tacoma DC TRD - Gets me where:
"There is splendid freedom in solitude, and after all, it is for solitude that I go to the mountains and deserts, not for companionship. In solitude I can bare my soul to the mountains unabashed. I can work or think, act or recline at my whim, and nothing stands between me and the wild."- Everett Ruess

I copied your list and deleted the ones I haven't visited, made relevant notes in parentheses.
Many without notes mean that I was only there for a short time, or there as a child, or don't have anything interesting to offer as advice. East Africa (broadly defined as the TZ coast inland to Lake Albert and then northeast to the Horn of Africa) is my primary area where I could offer expertise to fellow Expo'ers. Also happy to discuss southern China. Have a fair amount of experience in the Caribbean, including being a citizen of a Caribbean country and having lived in that region, but it doesn't seem to be that relevant to this group. In East Africa, I haven't made notes next to various countries but feel free to ask questions in PM's if I can be of help - I have enough of an idea of many places in the region that I'm comfortable offering advice. And if I don't feel I know enough, or if I feel my knowledge of an area is "stale," I'll at least get back to you and tell you. Happy to help if I can.

Total of 70. I did cheat and put any country I stepped foot in whether we spent the night or not. I would have to cross off about 10 if the criterion is to spend a night. Join the Navy, See the World!
