On pacing

We’re going to aim to do roughly two countries a week, and not pressure ourselves when life gets in the way. Even at that brisk pace, it will take us two years to complete this project. We managed to get through the 12 countries that begin with A in about 10 weeks, with some gaps in the for the holidays.

Update April 2022: About 6 months in, and we’re at almost exactly a once a week pacing overall. Sometimes we do multiple in just a few days, but sometimes travel, kids sports, injuries, and visiting guests get in the way. At one country a week, we’re looking at a 4 year project!

Update January 2024: HAHAHAHAHAAA. This is now a 7-year project. Buckle up.
