How many countries have you been to?
The value of your travels does not hinge on how many stamps you have in your passport when you get home–and the slow nuanced experience of a single country is always better than the hurried, superficial experience of forty countries

We usually don’t like to count countries because we believe traveling is more about the experience. We enjoy slow travel like a month in Santiago Chile. I, Mel, have been to 20+ countries and Kyle has been to 15+ countries. During this year, we another 12 countries.
