Our shrinking global village is an abiding source of amazement, and I often marvel at the diversity of countries represented by the readers (or perusers) of this blog.

Just for fun, I decided to check the countries of origin for the past 30 hours.

Most visitors (or at least the internet service) hail from the United States. But the balance of the world, according to our SiteMeter account, is also well-represented.

Offered in the order of their visits are luxury readers and seekers hailing from Hong Kong, New Zealand, Republic of Korea, Bangladesh, American Samoa, Croatia, Pakistan, Malaysia, Spain, Egypt, China, Europe(?), Canada, Argentina, Ireland, India, Italy, Norway, United Arab Emirates, El Salvador, Czech Republic, Sweden, Germany, Denmark, Australia, Russian Federation, Hungary, Philippines, Syrian Arab Republic, Polant, Brazil, Georgia, Islamic Republic of Iran, Romania, Macedonia and Portugal.

There were several “unknowns” and one major surprise: No visitors from Mexico during the 30 hour period studied.

We are grateful to all visitors and readers at Luxury Home Digest, but most likely have Google and Yahoo to thank for their website translation capabilities. At the same time, we are humbled by the number of people from other countries who have taken the time to learn the English language.
