A traveling Alien...

We're updating our insurances right now and with that comes a lot of questions. Such as "do you plan to bungy jump or take up wrestling as a hobby". (I do not).

One interesting question for an alien European is "do you plan to visit any countries outside the US in the next five years?".

- "Ehhh, YES!"

Or the question "which countries outside the US have you visited the past 10 years?".

Hm... "think, think, think", as Winnie-the-Pooh says. Ok, I brought out the map not to forget a country.

Sweden (of course...), Finland, Austria, Estland, Turkey, Thailand, Holland, Spain, Denmark, Greece, Mocambique, Portugal, Great Britain, Mexico.

If you live in Europe is kind of hard NOT to cross a border once in a while. And if you happen to have family working internationally, well, a couple of other contries gets added pretty quickly.

(and if the question had been about the last 15 years the answer would have been a few additional countries such as France, Germany, Belgium, Norway, Tanzania, Namibia, South Africa, Gambia)

The insurance lady worked hard to write down the countries on the single line on the form...
