Mark Zuckerberg has been touring the US all year — here's where he's been so far (FB)

Mark Zuckerberg is on a whirlwind tour of the US.

In recent months, Facebook's CEO has dined with a family at their home in Ohio and met with former opioid addicts. He's been photographed working on an assembly line at a Ford factory, meeting with members of the military, and even feeding a calf.

Zuckerberg's stops are part of his personal goal to visit every US state in 2017.

And even though many of his outings may look like someone raising their profile for a political run, Zuckerberg insists that's not the case. 

"Some of you have asked if this challenge means I'm running for public office," Zuckerberg recently wrote in a Facebook post. "I'm not."

We've collected the highlights from Zuckerberg's whirlwind US tour so far:

Zuckerberg kicked off his US tour in January in Dallas, Texas. He was there to testify in a lawsuit against his VR company Oculus, but he found time to help plant a garden with high schoolers downtown.

While in Dallas, he also met local police officers. "These officers do such important work, and it meant a lot to me to be able to thank them in person," he wrote on his Facebook page.

While in the area, he made time to go to his first rodeo in Fort Worth, Texas, with the city's mayor.
