The Geeky Traveller points to a neat map of world tourism. Country size on the map is modified to proportionally represent the number of tourists traveling there: More tourists, bigger image on the map, making France look larger than Australia. It’s a visually interesting representation.
The original source for the maps, Worldmapper, offers some other equally interesting travel-related maps. Tourist origins, gross cash receipts from tourism, tourism profit, aircraft passengers, and rail passengers are all pretty interesting. But there are plenty more. Geek out.
