A quick update.
There's only four books left in my challenge which will have spanned 70 countries.
Some other statistics:
Countries read: 66
New Countries: 47
Total Countries I've now read: 67
Given that there are 190 +/- 8 countries I will be somewhere in the 34% - 38% range for covering the world by the end of the year. That still seems rather paltry even though I know it was quite a bit of effort to even get this far.
Next stop 50%? 100 countries? Finish some regions? So many more places to go still, but they are getting more and more difficult to find.
To finish off this year's challenge I have Algeria, Morocco, Portugal and Ukraine to go.
