Dominica is/was a stop for a decent number of cruise ships, I'm surprised it's on the list. Beautiful place.

I have been to Liechtenstein, actually. It's tiny, but beautiful.

Surprised Afghanistan or Somalia wouldn't be #1, but makes sense that size and accessibility is a huge factor.

Interestingly the writer makes it sound like most are worth a visit (but unlikely he's been to few, if any). Although I'm sure it would cost a small fortune.

I've always wanted to go to Liechtenstein and the Marshall Islands.

Have a number of friends who have lived in the Central African Republic. I contemplated visiting for a time.

There are quite a bit of people in our area from the marshall islands. Matter of fact, last year i started a thread about mexicans and playing basketball but it really was just a group of about 15-20 guys from the marshall islands that would play hoops at the local park at night. Then later in the summer they switched to vball and softball and even had their own little tournament.

Who knew.

Some of those places seem like it would be cool to visit. I've never been to any of them.

Actually, none of them

Worst place I've ever been was Johannesburg. Don't want to go back.

Yeah and I believe he said as long as Pacific Air doesn't fuck him over he will have visited all 198 by the end of May lol. Which is really freaking cool. I wonder how much exactly it has all cost.

We didn't fair so well. Got pretty torn up going through the "bush". We weren't prepared for that type of track.
