I was thinking about this the other day; how we travelled so much in our twenties and early thirties and wondered if we will look back on it with embarrassment given the environmental impact. I’m not sure!

I already do. However, looking at the rest of this thread, my total feels pretty modest.

Most of the mainland Europe ones were several times each, but travelling with work in the 80s/90s so cities and mostly offices, airports and restaurants.

Hate travelling now and refuse to do it.

Haven't been abroad since 2019 and now we have 2 young kids I can't see us going away for the foreseeable due to the cost.

BridieConvert · 15/04/2023 01:09
  1. I thought I'd been to more but apparently not!
StrawHatOnTheParcelShelf · 15/04/2023 01:19

31-33 depending on whether I'm allowed to count my home country and count England and Scotland separately!

GarlicGrace · 15/04/2023 01:45
  1. Though 7 of those were when they were all Yugoslavia!
theWarOnPeace · 15/04/2023 01:46

Born in England… I can’t actually believe I’ve visited 44 different countries. Many of them multiple times. Lots of different US states, different Spanish and Greek islands etc just amazed really writing it down, it’s a bit vulgar somehow. My kids have traveled so much, too. I’ve always strived for travel, travel and more travel, but the environmental impact is definitely changing my choices the last few years. We have go by train a lot these days, which has been amazing!
