... at least in my bookshelf. I counted 80 Lonely Planet travel books. Most of the places I have even visited, some not (North Korea, for instance).
There's also a few duplicates, accidentally bought or couldn't find the book. This arrangement of the bookshelf is recent, now it is nice but it wasn't so nice previously... Some leak during renovation works caused me to have to empty and move the bookshelf this year.
In addition there are more books other than the Lonely Planet ones. Some about maps and peculiarities around them, these I like a lot! And of course a few other travel book series like Bradt, Rough Guides, DK Eyewitness, etc. A nice review of the different series by the way can be found here.
By the way, I've been to 74 countries, I think, 66 on skis, 40 in saunas, 37 I swam in, and 33 in caves (39 if one counts man-made ones).

"Mongolia is kind of close, right? Story about an attempt to ski everywhere in the world where there's snow. And in some places where there isn't. On and off-piste skiing on all continents, skiing into craters of live volcanoes, climbing, photography, and travel." The Planetskier blog focuses on skiing, caving, climbing, biking, flying, sauna, and swimming adventures around the world. See the other Planetskier blog articles about skiing, caving, urban exploration, climbing, cycling, flying, swimming, and saunas.
