The countries of Europe I have been to. I ticked off the squares, looked at the map, and noticed a funny Switzerland-shaped hole in the middle of things. Funny, thought I, I've been to Switzerland. I loved it. Hastily went back and added a tick where I'd missed it.

The places I most want to visit, that I've never been to? Greece. Cyprus. And places that aren't countries, but are parts of countries: Crete. Sicily. Sardinia. Iceland. Finland. The Isle of Man. The Shetland Isles. Denmark. Finland. Bornholm. Jersey. Guernsey. Northern Ireland. Heck, I want to go everywhere in Europe! And can you tell I have a love of islands?

And don't I wish I had a time machine, too.

Now, this map is misleading because it makes it look as if I have been, say, to all of Germany, while I've only been to Stuttgart (not counting overnight in Frankfurt).
