Figuring out which countries to visit as part of a world tour is far from being a simple letter to Santa Klaus.

Once the list of countries that you wish to visit established, you must take into account mainly 3 kind of constraints :
  • the time to spend in each country : often limited by local regulations or visas,
  • the climate in the areas to cross : avoid monsoon in Asia or winter in Patagonia, for example,
  • the "around-the-world" ticket (OneWorld explorer in our case) that has got quite a set of complex rules that restricts the conexions that can be taken at an interesting price.
After several modifications (we must be on version number 23), below is the list of countries that we expect to visit during this trip :
