Love this post! How did you make the map at the end? I really want to do one, is interesting to see how much of the world you have seen!!!

It’s a screenshot from the ‘been’ app, just search it on the App Store and you basically just click which countries you’ve been to & it highlights them in orange and tells you the percent of the world(mine is only 7%😱) and each continent!

You’re very welcome, my most visited continent is Europe (obvs) and I’ve visited 26% of European countries so it’s still not good enough! It’s good because you remember smaller countries that you’d never think of! ☺️

Wow, omg, it’s so long! We have one but it’s about half the length at the minute! One thing I will say is deffo change Port Douglas for Cairns! So much more to see and it actually feels like a place people live. PD felt like just a big resort when we went, if that makes any sense. We’ve lived in Cairns for 4 months now though and we love it, we don’t want to leave and will be sad when we do in 2 weeks time.

bexcapades

(January 28, 2018 - 6:23 am)

I can never narrow things down – I just keep adding! Thank you for the advice – we’re definitely planning on visiting cairns too – I’d been looking at Port Douglas for a potential living situation! How long have you been in Aus?
