How many countries - 2013?

[Suave]

How many countries have you been in, in 2013?

Alternatively, How many airports?


I have been to at least 90 cities, 21 countries, 5 continents, at least 30 airports.

swam in 3 oceans & 5 seas.

Saddest part; I have only used miles for one domestic flight and 0 international. I spent about 1/4 of my earnings on airfare.

The first time you flew it was to Israel? That's awesome.

May it be the start to many more adventures.

Also, keep in mind it's not the quantity, it's the quality.

Start a travel fund, it can be as low as 100$, you can just wait for deals and glitches.. one reason I didnt book so much on delta glitch as I already have prior tickets from other deals


I was in only 5 country's the last year... boohoo

Nice, gotta do that sometime. But have you ever done this? (I think we may need a bragging thread)

Is that you? I've been wanting to try this recently. How was it ?

Yes it is me. Koh Samui (Lamai Beach)
I had a blast, you have to be at least moderatly fit with strong ankles (avid snowboarders will probably pick it up very easily)

I don't mean to brag but I got the hang of it after 10 minutes, guy says it usualy takes 2-3 sessions or 30 minutes to get it right.

I think I paid $40 for 30 minutes.

DO NOT BOTHER WITH THE BACKPACK JETPACKS. Only do the board version.

Any more details as to how it feels and what exactly you're doing with your feet? Or is it just the power to keep your legs steady that's needed?

Your fighting the water pressure. But the hardest part is keeping yourself from toppling over as the water does not know to shoot straight up. Kinda feels like your balancing yourself on an unsupported rubber stick. Imagine you had 3 balls stacked on top of each other and you were standing on a 2 foot board balanced on top.

I fell at least 10 times, you gotta fall gracefully (diving is best) or you will hurt yourself.

The most important thing i was doing with my feet was fighting my weight vs water pressure. In other wards i had to keep my feet tilted down while keeping my body straight.

My ankles were sore for a bit.

I maxed out at 24 feet.

This guy is great!
