A new survey has arrived!\u00a0 Topic:\u00a0 How many countries have you traveled to so far this year?<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Do you find yourself traveling to more than five new countries each year? 10 new countries? If you are an international school teacher that answer just might just be yes. \u00a0One international school teacher that we know was averaging 12 new countries each year in a three-year time span!<\/p>\n

Is the number one reason for living abroad and working at international schools traveling? \u00a0We see time and time again many expat teachers planning out their trips months in advance in accordance to the calendar at their schools. \u00a0\u201dWhere should I go to next?\u201d we say to ourselves. \u00a0When we hear about another teacher\u2019s travel plans to some cool, exotic location, then we also want to go there or go somewhere even better. \u00a0We are truly lucky that our lifestyles abroad allow us these amazing travel opportunities.<\/p>\n

Many international school teachers are very conscious about the number of countries that they have been to in their lives so far.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

World66.com<\/a> and other websites help us create our own world maps highlighting the countries we have been to so far. \u00a0But surely we are not traveling solely to get another country checked off of our lists. \u00a0We of course enjoy the thrill and excitement involved in experiencing a different language, culture, climate, etc. first hand. \u00a0This possible issue though is that do those reasons diminish the more countries we travel to in a year. \u00a0Maybe a topic for a future blog entry.<\/p>\n

We are curious to see what the average number of countries that international school teachers go to each year.<\/p>\n

So, what is your number of countries so far?\u00a0 Go to the homepage<\/a> of International School Community and submit your vote today!<\/p>\n
