Sightseeing the Continents; the Wonders of Africa |
I wish I have all the time and money to travel and visit them all!
As of July 2021, I visited 127 out of 193 official states/countries (65.80%) across Seven continents around the world (80 countries remaining). Philippine Passport holders have a free visa / visa-on-arrival privilege on 79 countries. Additional 9 countries if working as a professional in Middle East (GCC) states and another on-condition visa privilege on some countries if holder of visa on Schengen, US or other OECD members.
