Travel is one of my favorite pasttimes. I've tried to make the most of vacations, conference travel and extended visits to see the different parts of the world and experience other cultures. I'm pretty adventurous in where I go—and definitely in what I eat!
Below is a fairly complete list of the places I've visited since starting grad school and the corresponding dates. I created this list as a personal reminder, but wouldn't mind sharing stories or recommendations with other globetrotters.
Legend:
Red = lived in (at least 80% of some 6 continuous months)
Green = 4 continuous weeks
Blue = Spent a total of at least 6 days
Yellow = At least once for 24 continuous hours
Brown = Been to, but not overnight (excluding airports)
