Please mention to Stephen that sometimes you need rules for counting countries. For example, I only count countries where I went through immigration, so Iceland is not counted, despite being in the Reykjavik airport many times. I visited Slovenia, Croatia, Macedonia, Serbia, and Montenegro on a college program, but they were all just Yugoslavia back then. Kazakhstan was a Soviet Republic during my visit. Does it count as a separate country? I agree with almost all of Stephen's rules for travel.

Thanks, Joel! I'll tell him. He's an ambitious stickler, though.
