I look at my stats page most days and keep track of the number of hits, in which readers are located. Most readers are Americans and British, which is not surprising. The Canadians and Australians follow up closely, and there are a few from South Africa, Ireland too.
It is interesting to see that the blog is read by people in non English-speaking countries. A few examples: Italy, France (about 10 a day), Germany, Israel, Luxembourg, Japan, Spain and others. Quite often, there are visits from various countries in the South American continent. Eastern Europe is represented by Romania, Poland and Lithuania. I have even had a few visits from Turkey.
Looking at the country statistics since I began this blog in February 2012, the only parts of the world not represented are about two-thirds of Africa, Madagascar, Greenland, the Muslim countries of the Middle-East, Mongolia. Paraguay is alone in South America. I have had one visit from Vatican City. They seem to have little to fear from me!

Fr. Anthony – I think it unlikely that you will hear from Greenland. There are only 56,000 of them and for the most part they are only fluent in Greenlandic and Danish.

I’m surprised I have had the visits I have had, even from China where the Internet is heavily regulated.
