When I first played PFS a nice lady (who turned out to be a ruthless and bloodthirsty VC) told me that in PFS I could take my PCs anywhere in the world and play them. At the time I thought that would never apply to me, but this year I've traveled quite a bit for my work and I brought my PCs with me. I have to tell you that I've had a great time and have encountered many hospitable lodges. I wanted to post to 1) thank those lodges 2) let those traveling through these areas know these places will welcome roaming pathfinders and 3) I think I've had a pretty good run of playing in places on business trips, so I wanted to make it about me:) and see if anyone could top my PFS passport.
Since Jan 2013 I've played PFS in these areas on business trips in a non-Con setting:
Atlanta, GA
Anderson, SC
Tempe, AZ
Houston, TX
Glen Allen, VA
If you want to count Cons add:
Chattanooga, TN
Mobile, AL
More to come, post your own PFS passport if you like, or give some love to a lodge for its hospitality.

It's good to hear from you, CFoot. I hope Ra Loi has stayed out of trouble.
It feels like I haven't done much traveling this year, but perhaps that's for not being a VL in Georgia and doing the local convention circuit.
- Atlanta, GA (monthly events and Dragon*Con)
- Columbia, SC (SCARAB)
- Highlands Ranch, CO (while passing through)
- Indianapolis, IN (Gen Con)
- Missoula, MT (MisCon)
- Redmond, WA (weekly events, schedule permitting)
- Seattle, WA (PaizoCon and a few special events)
There are a few that I'm used to visiting but haven't this year.
- Chattanooga, TN (ConNooga)
- Mobile, AL (MobiCon)

Some Updates:
Northern Thailand (Home Game)
Online-PBP
Online-VTT
Dubai, UAE
I wanted to take a minute and praise the UAE lodge. Mike and his wife, Joe, were extremely accommodating to me on my trip to Dubai. Mike really went the extra mile in putting a game together, so that I would have an opportunity to play. Mike is new to PFS, but has years of RPG experience that came out in his GMing. He was prepared, entertaining, and made things fun. The venue was great and the group a proper set of gamers. Thanks to Andy for the NPC Codex Box which is awesome and for giving me a ride to the airport. Talk about hospitality! So if you are ever I going to UAE, be sure to contact Mike and make a little PFS apart of your trip. Thanks again to Mike, Joe, and Andy.

Thanks for the lovely words Rob. We were glad to have you. I appreciated the time you took after the session to help us PFS newbies with the session reporting. You confirmed my decision to branch out from Pathfinder home games and get involved with PFS was a good one. You are welcome any time you can manage to swing by. One of these days Jo and I will have to take you up on your offer to head over to Thailand and play.

Salt Lake City (TableCon - well, as of tomorrow!)
That's right, I've played both north AND south of Salt Lake City! It's kind of a big deal in Utah. People here don't usually travel beyond the SLC. I.E. I live and work north of the city, if it weren't for my in-laws I really wouldn't have much reason to head south. Well, excpet for my wife's trips to IKEA...
