My countries (outside the UK):
Portugal: Yes would visit there again, Lisbon was great with lovely food
France: Yes. Loved the difference between the serene Nice and Beaujolais, and the hustle and bustle of Paris
Italy: Wouldn't go to Rome again, too busy. However I loved the food and the people in Florence & Venice.
Germany: YES! Loved the beer and the food! Oktoberfest (2 week beer drinking festival in Munich) was the most fun ever
Holland: Yes, I loved Amsterdam, if it was a little scary!
Latvia: I'd like to go again but it'd have to be as part of a long trip, very easy to see it all, which is what I did!

Well, when I went it was still communist. To buy anything decent tourists had to use the `Dollar Shops` and we were approached by hotel staff to buy stuff like soap and toothpaste on their behalf using our currency and they then paid us in the Romanian currency, though it had to be done in secret.
The service in the shops was virtually non-existant, and the food wasn`t up to much. My young son at the time got a stomach bug and we had to go to the doctor, and when we got back to the hotel we had to try to tell the catering staff what sort of food the doctor recommended we give him. We gave up in the end, after all the majority of the guests had gone down with food poisoning. Solders patrolled the places wherever we seemed to go, including the local fairground.
Apart from that - it was great! lol

Tunisia
Turkey (enjoyed their baths) lol

Spain, easy to get to even for 3 or 4 days, been to most of the costas for this reason, Barcelona is my favorite city, Tenerife a few times in winter, Mallorca, many times, I like the north of the island round Puerta Pollensa, Greece and it's islands, Corfu, Rhodes, Lesvos, stayed in the old capital Mollyvos, lovely place, this is my favorite island, Parga is my favorite on the mainland, Malta, quite barren but very nice friendly people, Turkey just the once, visited Bodrum and Marmaris and wasn't keen on either place but did like Turunch where we stayed, Holland, my sister lives there and finally Singapore, found it fascinating with it's diverse cultures and religions, fantastic variety of food, only downside 17 hours on a plane to get there.

My favourite ones are Spain and Italy and I would go there again and again, as I love these countries. I'd also like to visit France, Paris. I've never been there yet.
