countries visited...

I'm trying to visit 30 countries before 30! Here is how the list stands so far:

1) Egypt

2) Israel/Palestine

3) Jordan

4) England

5) Holland

6) Scotland

7) Northern Ireland

8) Republic of Ireland

9) China

10) Hong Kong **

11) Malaysia

12) Vietnam

13) Cambodia

14) Thailand

15) Singapore

16) Taiwan **

** Some argue that these don't count because they "belong" to China. Trust me, they are their own nations, even if China does not want to admit it.
