  - IcelandThis country is breathtakingly beautiful. I drove around the entire country from Reykjavik, around the Golden Circle, and continuing onto the Ring Road. My favorite sections were the South West, the South and the East. 1600+ miles of driving, 100+ miles of hiking, dozens of waterfalls, many hot springs, and very friendly people. Everything is pretty expensive there, but other than that, it is by far one of my favorites.

      - SayulitaThe last time I went to Sayulita was during a five-day trip at the end of January 2020 for my girlfriend’s 29th birthday surprise. It was epic for the short time we were there. It is definitely a town that I could get behind as it is very festive. The next time I have planned to go to Sayulita is early January of 2021 for an entire month. Funny enough, the last time I was in a commercial airport was that trip I mentioned above. I’ve never gone an entire year only stepping into a commercial airport once. Oh, PDX airport, and flying around in general, how I miss thee!!

      - PortlandPortland is the place I’ve called home for the last eight years. I’ve lived in most of the four areas that break up Portland, so I’ve got a lot of info for those looking to explore. Though I do plan to live in some other part of the world some day, separating from Portland is no easy task!

    - New YorkNew York – for quite a while, I had only ever been to New York City in New York, however, now I can say I’ve had a chance to spend some time in Upstate New York, in Corning. I came here for the TBEX conference and was surprised with how wonderful this little town is in the Finger Lakes area – a much-desired change to the “Big City.”.
    - Washington
    - Texas
- Oceania
- South America
  - ChileMy time in Chile was spent enjoying walking around Santiago, enjoying the beaches/nightlife/new years in Valparaiso, to getting as far south as I’ve ever been to enjoy the gorgeous views of Patagonia. Enjoyed a four day backpacking trip around the W of Torres Del Paine. Very friendly locals, good exchange rate from the US, and delicious wine and coffee everywhere I went. My first experience of South America and I was blown away by how great it was. Would go back again in a heart beat.

136 Airports Down using OurAirports

Published by Jason on April 28, 2019April 28, 2019

136 Airports Down…only 55,092 to go!

I’m excited to share that I’ve got 136 airports down over my last 10+ years of traveling! A lot of those are small airports that I’ve flown into as a pilot usually in a Cessna 172! I’m stoked for so many more to see around the globe!

OurAirports

Whenever flying to a new airport, I log that into OurAirports. A simple website that lets you track all the airports out there and whether you’ve visited or not. The website also provides a lot of information about each airport that they pull, not just visiting history. There’s a way to comment on each airport as well, so you can share with others about a favorite airport you’ve visited, or keep people away from those you just find terrible.

If you ever decide that you want to go track your airports that you’ve been to yourself, go check out OurAirports. I’m not sure of another tool that does what they do. The site has changed since I started using it over five years ago! One feature that I loved was you could mark an airport visited as either a pilot or passenger. Now you just mark that you’ve visited an airport. It’s okay, but not nearly as great as before since I could show a different map for airports I’ve flown to vs airports I’ve only been a passenger. I’ve reached out to the developer, but no luck in changing as of today!

My 136 Airports Down

To check out the airports that I’ve visited so far, go here: http://ourairports.com/members/shiftyninja/! It’s a great way to see how much of this world you’ve been able to visit yourself, so get started today! I understand that tracking things like this isn’t for everyone, but if it is for you, I can’t recommend it more.
