Oh I'm so glad you like it!
Originally I was going to stick sewing pins into the globe to represent the places that you've lived (that I know of), but then I wasn't completely convinced that it would hold up. So I just left it as-is.
Today at the office I received a holiday gift from one of our suppliers, based in Italy. It's a (really nice) bottle of red wine. I almost cried because I don't want to wait 3 more months to drink it!
