How to build your travel map
- Visited (orange) for countries you've set foot in, Lived there (violet) for places you've called home, Want to go (yellow) for your list.
- On a phone, the "Tick from a list" panel is quicker than tapping small countries: tap V, L or W next to each name.
- Rename or recolor the groups if you want your own categories, like "Worked there" or "With the kids".
- Export a PNG, or print it at poster size with "PNG, print size".
Tracking US states instead? Use the states visited map. Want a quick blank to print and color by hand? Grab the blank world map.
Questions
How are countries counted?
The list is based on 197 countries: the 193 UN members, the two UN observer states (Vatican City and Palestine), Kosovo and Taiwan. Tuvalu is too small to draw at world scale, so the map counts 196; add it with a pin if you have been. Territories such as Greenland, Puerto Rico or French Guiana can be colored but don't add to the count, so visiting Greenland does not inflate your number.
What does the land-area percentage mean?
It's the share of the land on this map covered by the countries you marked as visited or lived in. Visiting Russia, Canada or Brazil moves it a lot; visiting the Vatican barely registers.
Is my list saved?
Yes, in this browser only (localStorage). Nothing is uploaded. Use "Copy share link" or "Save project file" in the Export tab to move it to another device, and see the privacy page to clear it.
Does a layover count as a visit?
That's your call. A common rule among travelers is that you must leave the airport; the Travelers' Century Club counts even a brief stop. Use "Want to go" for places you only passed through if you prefer a strict list.
Can I share my travel map?
Export a PNG to post, or copy a share link. Tip: in the Style tab, "Use my count as subtitle" writes something like "42 of 196 countries (21%)" on the image.
