A very good point – (two actually, though I’m not sure how difficult the land crossing is right now.)

As for Korea, I think reunification is a long way off but travel to the north is becoming somewhat easier and a bit more accepted by the government there.

In reply to Anil Polat. I would say yes, new reigeme can only mean alot of change has happened right? Sudan is a good example of a recent one. however i doubt id want to actually cross at the new boarder overland, as tension would likely be high! So longing to visit the two Koreas (Much more so the North) before the opposite happens and they become reunified

In reply to Angela.

Hypothetical question for you then – suppose a country you’ve already visited broken in half, into two separate countries. You’ve only visited the north part when it was one entity, do you make a trip now to the south?

Just curious to hear your thoughts!

I like borders if this means counting the number of countries we’ve been to, but visa applications are extremely annoying!
