The Places I've Been

Yesterday I FedEx’d our Russian visa applications to the Russian embassy in Washington DC, along with our passports.

They require the actual original passports to issue us our visas.

An interesting part of the application is question 27:

List all countries you have visited in the last ten years and indicate the year of visit.

I got out all of my old passports and checked the entrance and exit visas stamped in the back.

I thought it was interesting. Here are all of the places I’ve been:

Peru, 2007, 2005, 2004, 2003

Venezuela, 2002

Great Britain, France, Israel, 2000

Ecuador, 1997

Spain, France, Germany, Swizerland, Austria, Yugoslavia, Albania, Greece, Israel, 1977

The picture is from my very first passport issued in 1976.
