North, South, East & West

There’s how far, north, south, east, west have you travelled meme going around the internet. Here’s two maps that answer this for me. …

When I travelled to Norbotton County in Sweden, I crossed the border into Finland and had some difficulty in finding the original widget illustrating the countries visited or how to edit it and so I used a new one from visitedplaces.com (see below); at the moment, you need to give it a nudge by pressing the play button.

I have now made a google map plotting the three cities as Hong Kong is both my East and South points.

And the countries, lots in Europe, less well travelled in the rest of the world.

I found these two e-travel agents, byway.travel & exoticca.com, note the double cc in the latter site’s name. Byway travel specialise in flight free holidays and Exoticca have a “take me anywhere” button and I have explored their Spain and Mexico offerings.
