My wife and I have spent 3 of the last 6 years traveling the world through ~50 countries. I've been to more countries than I can count, maybe 60 or 70? We spent 4 months on a road cross-country trip across the USA after our marriage, quarantined in Thailand and are now living in Boston. We are saving up and plan to start a family and move to SE Asia within the next several years.
