It’s a question we get asked all the time: ‘how many UNESCO World Heritage Sites have you visited?’ so we decided to keep a record our UNESCO sightings. So far we’ve made it to our first 140 UNESCO World Heritage Sites (check out our progress with sites 1 to 50 here, sites 51 to 100 here and sites 151 to 200 here) but we’re not finished yet! There are over 1000 UNESCO World Heritage Sites dotted across the world and it’s our mission to visit as many as possible!
UNESCO: sites we’ve seen!
