European Nations Where No Urbanite Has Set Foot?

[phildwyer]

Starting with the least likely...

 

[elfman]

Kazakhstan is in central Asia. I don't get how people classify it as being in Europe...

 

[UnderOpenSky]

Rather shockingly I've never actually been to Ireland.

I was following Wikipedia.

Visited Monaco as a teenager with my parents. We were on a cheap and cheerful holiday in France and I think my father just fancied a wander around.

 

[phildwyer]

Iceland and Montenegro for me, both times for the day only.

 

[Sweetpea]

Otherwise, of the obvious places, France, Spain, Netherlands, Czech Republic, Poland, Lithuania all multiple times. Ireland, Germany, Belgium, Portugal & Menorca as one offs. Never got round to Italy or Greece and future long term plans to go farther afield might mean I don't get to see Europe again for a while.

Fog in channel - continent cut off.

Yeh, technically it's transcontinental, so I suppose I was wrong in saying 'I don't get how people classify at as being in Europe' but it just isn't Europe tbh.

I've had a conversation with my ex who is from there about this, and she doesn't see it as Europe at all either.

I've been to Monaco twice, once with my parents when we were on holiday in the South of France and once with Mrs Soul. We jumped on a train from Nice. It's a strange place.

Also been to Luxembourg briefly and Andorra.

Same as Turkey. although most Turks would like to think of themselves as Europeans.

You can still smoke in Burger Kind in Andorra.

I think the main reason it's seen as being in Europe is because is was part of the Soviet Union and gained a big Russian population.

In the main street in Vaduz there is this...

More suited to Amsterdam really.

 

[chilango]

That was the main street!?! It's such a tiny, dull place isn't it?

We laughed a lot.

There was also this place

I had the worst sausage roll I've had in my life from a garage in Liechtenstein.

 

[Bahnhof Strasse]

I only went there to act a s a driver for someone who wanted to do some discreet banking. I was left to wander the streets for 3 hours. Longest 3 hours of my fucking life!

 

[chilango]

I keep stopping when pass through on the way up to Austria with idea that having lunch/a coffee in Liechtenstein would be novel. We have now failed on four occasions.

 

[Bahnhof Strasse]

If you nip in the post office opposite the kunts museum you can get your passport stamped for CHF3, if you're in to that kind of thing. That and the slightly sparkling Vaduza red wine is about all the place has going for it.

san marino

vatican city

 

[phildwyer]

So it seems that at least one Urbanite has been to every single country in Europe. Just like South America.

Two continents down, five to go. Yes five.

I'm sure we won't get Africa or Oceana.

 

[DotCommunist]

I've never been anywhere
