Has anyone seen a good travel map that you can mark where you have traveled to? I saw this

Wow, I was just looking for one last night! I will be watching this post.

I found some translucent sticker dots that you can use on a map, but they don't show up on dark areas.

We got it at the C&B outlet and love it! You will need to buy some extra flags (only comes with 12).

I am looking for a similar U.S. one.

We have this one, but I admit it is still in the box, so I can't say whether or not I like it. I think it will be a Christmas present this year.

It's a map attached (glued probably) on top of a cork board. Not anything elaborate but works for the purpose. You do have to be careful not to push the pins too far in or you will go through the back. Not a big deal but just something to be careful about.
