Let's see...

I'm looking to explore a few more countries in Europe this summer (Montenegro and Croatia are on top of the list).

I'm Swedish for reference.

I live in the US. I have been to 41 of 50 states.

Brazil
Canada
Grand Cayman
Italy
Jamaica
Mexico
Venezuela

I'm from Switzerland, and these are the places I've been to :

Europe

France : Paris, Bordeaux, Nice, Strasbourg, Nîmes, Annecy, Ajaccio, Bastia, Biarritz.
England : London
Scotland : Edingburgh, Stirling, Isle of Skye, Thurso - and some small towns/cities which I don't really remember since we simply passed through.
Germany : Heidelberg, Köln, Koblenz
Belgium : Bruxelles
Italy : Don't really remember because it was a long time ago but we went to Sardegna and Tuscany.
Austria : Innsbruck, Salzburg, Vienna (all of it this year!)
Netherlands : Amsterdam
Sweden : Stockholm
Denmark : Copenhagen
Spain : Barcelona, Majorca, Menorca
Greece : a few hours in Athens
Czechia : Prague
Hungary : Budapest (came back from there just yesterday! It was my first time in Budapest)

USA

Miami, New York, Boston, Newport, Cape Cod

North Africa

Morroco : Marrakesh
Egypt : a few hours in Cairo

I'm now at 126, with Guyana and Suriname as the latest in 2017. I don't think I'll stop visiting new countries, but it is not a priority. One thing that limits my interest in new countries is that lots of those I haven't visited yet are dangerous, and many have visa regulations that would force me to leave my precious passport in the claws of postal services.

If you went to Bratislava or somewhere else which is now Slovakia, I don't see why you shouldn't count it

How should one count Caribbean Islands? I mean, USVI might be the United States, and the Caymans might be UK, but what is Aruba? Is St. Martin France? Is St. Maarten Holland? Is St. Martin/St. Maarten just St. Maarten? Is St. Barths different?

And by the way, how should I count the parts of the UK?

I started to post a number and confused myself.
