Show me your stickers!
We just got our first TT - looking forward to putting stickers of the places we go on it. I made a simple rule if the camper stayed overnight someplace it could have a sticker from it.
Now make me jealous and show me your stickers!

My wife and I get refrigerator magnets from places we go. Keep them at home. I would put the stickers on a window because they might look terrible after a couple of seasons and may not be easily removed form the side of rv if that’s what your plan is.
It’s like the cars with all of the bumper stickers plastered all over. A lot of work to clean up the paint if and when you sell.

Look at my signature. I don’t put stickers on my trailer.

We put a map on our trailer to reflect the places we have been as a family with the camper. We also do magnets for some our a favorite places inside the trailer. Love sitting at the campfire looking at the map remembering the great trips we have taken. My problem is that I keep going to the same areas! Colorado this Summer for the 4th time for example...lol
Enjoy filling up your map!

We started putting stickers on the places we stay 3+ nights...running out of room on the bumper already after two long trips. Probably going the map route soon.

We also have the map with all the states we have visited. When we started this 25+ years ago, we decided to place the state on the map if we visited sites in the state (Walmart doesn't count). As time went on, we have spent at least one night in all the states we have posted.

I placed the map on a piece of plexiglass & hung it from 3m Command hooks on the inside of the door between the door & screen. By doing this we were able to use it on 3 different rvs over 10+ years of fulltiming. If we spent the night that state got a sticker, I think we made 32-34 states total.

Chris, Chris, Chris, you've been to Colorado 3 times and never to Maine? Life is short. Dump those Colorado plans to go see the same old mountains and try Maine where they actually know what a scallop is. And next year south to Louisiana!
You're too damned skinny from visiting states like Colorado. You need to step on up to places where there are great things to see plus culinary delights.

This is a good idea. Are there any other methods of 'transferring' the travel map between trailers? Although we bought new this year we are evaluating trailers with a true (with a door) bunk house that can sleep 4+ at a time...without getting a new TV. With covid, we were lucky to get what we did but Fort Wilderness with the grandkids could have been better it they truly had their own space.

We used to do that on our 2015, but now with our new 2020, I buy a magnet and put it on the outdoor kitchen fridge for every campground we spend an overnight.

Oh, Maine is on the list for sure. My older boys are both in Colorado this Summer so it a must do...better half said so.

We have a map for the states we visit (has suction cups to put on the window), but the DW collects hat/lapel pins from everywhere we go. I took an old printers tray and put foam in the compartments and she sticks the pins in the foam. When we get home it hangs on the wall.

US Map and stickers
We have our map stuck to our slide-out where weather will not bother it most of the time (in storage, on the road, etc.). When we got our latest camper we just purchased a new map/stickers then filled in where we had been with the old camper. We only add a sticker if we have spent the night in a state; although we have been tempted to count the states we drove through and visited a site or two. Sticking with only if we spend a night for now.

Stickers vs magnets
We get magnets. When we went across the Golden Gate we bought a fridge magnet of the bridge. We went to a pleasant historical town of Oatman, AZ. No state sticker will remind us of those. I cut a thin sheet of steel and painted it black. Here's a look. Sorry it's upside dow,.
