In answer to the most common question I get, here’s the list of countries and cities I’ve visited so far. Piecing this together from calendar entries, emails, travel app reservation histories, etc. has been a good exercise as I’d really not had a true sense of how far I’ve gone and how much I’ve moved around. This is a list that I’ll try to maintain regularly going forward. I stopped maintaining this list around April 18, 2018, apparently while in Hue. More than four and half years later, I’m making an attempt to piece together my travel history from bits of information strewn about different accounts, pictures, my laptop, and my phone.
