Really? 19 seconds seemed a little short to me, so I thought it was a cross-post.

Well maybe it is cheating in my list to have those countries separately but I visited when Yugoslavia was one and none of that name thingies had yet came to surface.

They seemed pretty friendly to greeks. and of course we hadnt even heard of "makedojnia". we thought they were serbs. and that the name on some road signs there was a pleasant coincidence.

Thanks for the info paiktis. I wonder what will happen wtr to the name and all. I mean, they can't call their country F.Y.R.O.M. for ever. But from what I hear they might as well change it to East Albania soon

let's see here...

Czechia (I love the czech absinth)
US (national parks in the US are simply great!)
Tunesia
France
Spain
Portugal
UK (and that includes Scotland )
Netherlands
Luxemburg
Germany
Switzerland
Austria
Italy
Egypt
(the vatican )
Morocco


Most of them are in the neighbourhoood of Belgium, which is understandable of course... and naturally I visit France etc more often than Egypt and the likes

I'm planning to seek it a little further next time though... Guatemala etc to go on a little Maya visit/Peru for the Inca's (haven't decided yet)... Also, Cuba looks interesting, but a bit touristic, and you have to throw dollars away like mad if you want something done and that's not easy for a poor student such as meh!

Also on the list are Greece (you live in Athens right paiktis ) and Turkey (while i'm up there i could also check the recent archaeological excavations at Sagalassos led by a professor of mine, Prof Waelkens)


PS: Travel as often as you can: it's the best thing there is

Trajanus, I agree, travelling is great!

I add to my list: Italy

Looks like many of us have done some massive travelling.. is it just a coincidence?

I'll keep that in mind, though I happen to know a whole lot about the Mayas, and I was already thinking of checking out their sites (pictures are nice but it's not the real thing)

On the other hand I really should visit Macchu Pichu real soon because I heard a landslide is causing it to vanish (or simply be destroyed) in a matter of time!


Btw an impressive list you have there srholmes... you did a tour around Europe etc, or did you visit all those countries one by one!

Gangerwolf, Yeah, I think they'd like to be part of Sweden.. they speak swedish, are closer to Sweden, and are maybe more swedish to begin with.. Personally I wouldn't mind if we rented it and later sold it to Sweden..
