I keep a quiet log of where I go and how I get there: flights taken, countries visited, road trips driven. This page is where those numbers slowly turn into pictures.
Flights
A live trace of every commercial flight I’ve boarded, replayed on a world map.
Counted up, the trace comes to 474,003 miles across 315 flights, touching 90 airports in 47 countries, flown with 44 airlines on 30 different aircraft types: roughly 46 days in the air, enough to circle the Earth 19 times or stretch 2.0 times the distance to the Moon.
