Where I've been this year
The overnights meme:
List the places where you spent a night away from home this year, marking places where you spent two or more non-consecutive nights with an asterisk.
*London, England
Nicosia (north), TRNC
Glasgow, Scotland
*Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain
Belfast, Norn Iron
Lys, Burgundy
*Kidderminster, England
Loughbrickland, Norn Iron
Budapest, Hungary
Ljubljana, Slovenia
Florence, Italy
Budva, Montenegro
Tirana, Albania
Brussels, Belgium (stayed in town last night after work Xmas party)
14 different places, well down on last year. Same as 2009, more than 2011.
Also a day-trip to Berlin and transit through Munich, changed planes in Istanbul en route to Cyprus, changed planes in Vienna en route to Montenegro, drove through Irish Republic en route to Loughbrickland, so tally of countries visited for the year is 14 (Albania, Austria, Belgium, Cyprus [both parts], France, Germany, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Montenegro, Slovenia, Spain, Turkey, UK), up from last year's 9.
This is the first calendar year since 2001 that I have not been to the USA.
Previous years: 2013, 2012, 2011, 2010, 2009, 2008, 2007 and 2006.
