How many countries have you been to in Europe?

[Nannyoggapple]

When I was a little girl, I never had a burning desire about my career, or relationships.

I just remember always having one strong goal, that I thought about a lot.

It was to see every country in Europe before I die. Its still something I think about, and I'm determined to get there one day.

I'm 40. And I've still only seen just over half of the countries in Europe. I think I've seen around 25. I'll have to add them up, but I know it's around that.

It seems to take so long to get to my goal, because I have so little annual leave, and I'm too tired at the weekend to do a weekend quick trip.

But one day I'll get there!

I just thought it might be an interesting thread.

I've been to 26 countries in Europe. Can you count Turkey? I've only been to Istanbul, nowhere else in Turkey so that's in Europe.

I dont have the same energy now, I'm getting tireder now at 40.

I think I might give it a rest for a while now.

And then I will visit more countries when I'm older and retired.

You can do a lot when you're older!
