Oh, the places I've been

I travel a lot. To quantify this statement, I went through the Traveler's Century Club list and checked that I have visited 83 out how the 329 (as of December 2019) distinct countries and territories on their list.(To decide boundary cases, I use the Club's own rule that "even the shortest visit [suffices], provided that you disembark from your aircraft, ship, or vehicle and set foot in the territory." I read this to mean that "territory" includes buildings and other fixed structures, like bridges.)

Red indicates a state/province/country I've been to. In the maps, I didn't count extraterritorial areas (interiors of airports, border zones, etc.); those are listed in parentheses in the printed lists. (Glitch: Serbia and Montenegro should show up separately but do not. No other stances on international boundaries are implied.)
