Have you heard of this book? It's awesome! I want to visit all 1,000 places before I die. Will it happen? Not even close, but a lofty goal nonetheless. I thought I'd document the places Jonathan and/or I have been. We decided that we could count places in this one that'd we'd been to separately, since we may not make it back to them together.
*London, England (Jonathan)
*La Grand Place - Brussels, Belgium (Jonathan)
*Paris, France (Jonathan/Erin)
*Taj Mahal - Agra, Uttar Pradesh, India (Erin)

I win with 16!! But Jonathan definitely wins the out of country category.
And there is also a USA/Canada version that we've been much more successful with. I usually only document the ones in this that we've done together....but what the heck, it's my blog so I'll just do separate on here as well! :)
