Reading through the responses, Grenada is surprisingly popular so far.
I was on both islands at St. Kitts and Nevis. Anyone else here been to Nevis?
My visit to Belgium was within the letter of the rules, but perhaps not the spirit. I changed trains in Brussels on my way from France to Germany. I think I stepped out of the train station to look around, but it was night and the only thing I could see was the building across the street.
My visit to France is similar: I took a train from Switzerland to Dunkerque, to take the ferry to England, and walked from the train to the ferry, so (technically) set foot in France. I should visit again and spend longer there – and perhaps see more than that one city.
I should add also that I’ve been to the Vatican, though I feel that hardly counts as a real country.
At present, I’m the lone vote for 3 countries, one of which surprises me (India), and the other two a bit less surprising (Sri Lanka and the Yemen, which I visited when they were called Ceylon and Aden, respectively).
No it wasn’t. It was called the western, more developed 60% of Czechoslovakia. The eastern 40%, a related people called the Slovaks speaking a closely related language, felt like the unwanted stepchildren of the Czechs, and separated from Czechoslovakia in 1990 or so as the independent Republic of Slovakia.
Pope John Paul II’s mother was born in Austria-Hungary. He was born in Poland. But they were born in the same place.
Geography geek here, would love to go to any, and I mean any country, but so far only Canada and the US.
(However, we are planning a trip this summer* which will take us through more US states for me to check off the list as well as my remaining 4 Canadian provinces. Plus, as a capper, I hope to hop the ferry from Newfoundland to St. Pierre and Miquelon so that I can add a third country to my “travelled to” list.)
Hoping to take this trip anyways, it was just announced at our company a few minutes ago that our office will be closing down in May or June - not a surprise as we knew for over a eyar that we’d be closing, latest estimates were “before the fall”, but this is the latest, latest estimate, and before my trip.

I have also been to Jamaica, Belize, and the Cook Islands. It’s kind of depressing how little I have traveled when compared to how much I want to travel.
