We share with the beasts a craving for sameness and a gregariousness which makes us desire the company of people of our own age, sex, race, creed, political conviction, class and taste. But it is exclusively human to have a thirst for diversity, i.e., to be happy in the company of those who are different from us in every respect, as well as to travel, to enjoy other foods, hear other tunes, see other plants, beasts, and landscapes. — Erik von Kuehnelt-Leddihn

So far I've visited 35 countries and territories on all six populated continents, including a quick circumnavigation of the globe in March-April 2013. However as a kid I've also been on countless almost month-long RV trips around Europe and set my foot in pretty much every European country except the Balkan countries and a couple others.
"Myself I'm very careful with upgrading articles to guide. These are my own guidelines, and they've worked well so far: For large cities the minimum requirements would be a decent description of the city's history, culture and climate, all "normal" ways for getting in and around, 20 See listings (or 30 See and Do combined) and 20 places in each of Eat, Drink and Sleep (eat and sleep pricified and something in each price class). Buy is for some reason always hard to find meaningful listings for, so a good explanation of where to find shops plus some interesting local things to buy (if there are any) is enough. Overall, all sections with listings should have a paragraph of descriptive text too, if possible. Towards the end precautions for staying safe and healthy, plus ideas where to Go next. There are four sections that are hard to fill; Learn, Work, Connect and Cope, and I don't think it's that bad to leave them empty. Finally, the article should have a banner, a dynamic map and POI coordinates. Smaller cities (articles using the small city template) have somewhat easier criteria. Most notably they don't need to have as many listings, and the Understand section doesn't need to be as extensive. --ϒpsilon (talk) 16:14, 30 March 2015 (UTC)"

The same goes for maps and banners insofar it's possible; when making banners I always favor Public Domain photos. Really, the only case when something I upload isn't PD is when I've made a change to someone else's static map.
Flightradar24 - The planes above you right now, who knows if some Voyager is on board? Includes cockpit view in four directions and all sorts on interesting real time data. Also real time departures and arrivals for airports. Warning: addicting!
Marinetraffic - If you live near the sea; the ships that are nearby right now. Again, who knows if some Voyager is on board one of them?
