Wow, Cool. I visited Lichtenstein in 2016. I took a long daytrip from Zurich via Sargans. Funny that San Marino is your last country. My last country in mainland Europe was San Marino, which I visited last summer. Very beautiful and peaceful place. A lot cheaper than Lichtenstein. I visited Russia in 2018, Saint Petersburg. Only have one country left in Europe, Iceland :)

Nice to see Liechtenstein again, there was no construction when I visited but I still wasn't allowed into the castle. I think it's the actual home of the Prince!! I didn't mind too much but I think he did! Those hotel prices are crazy - it's an expensive area for sure! If you go back there's a cool wooden bridge that crosses the nearby river - in the centre of it is the border marking between Switzerland and Liechtenstein.

By the way Gabe in case you’re still in Sargans they have a castle there too. Climbed it many years ago and the views from the top are absolutely unreal overlooking the appenzel alps. You can even grab a beer as they have a small cafe at the top. Definitely recommend it if you haven’t done it already and if you’re still there!

The castle was closed when I was there too, or at least not possible to enter. I turned around there and went down to the city center and then went for a walk there and also to the river with the swiss border. Then I took a bus up to Malbun. It was a great day, like yours.

Šumava national park, Český Krumlov, České Budějovice, Budweiser brewery, castle Hluboká, Lednice castle, Holašovice village and the vineyards around Brno are very special. Maybe next time... 😊

Nice tour of Vaduz! The walkways with the vineyards reminds me of Luxembourg. Vaduz is such a tough place to get to as it is out of the way and maybe they like to keep it that way. San Marino for a similar day trip is very worth it! Frequent buses from Rimini train station. Rimini might be nice for a night or two in summer as it is a beach resort town. But you could be based in Bologna and go to San Marino for a day trip with an early start.

Gabriel you should consider the city of Graz when visiting Austria. It is a beautiful preserved old city which was not bombed during the war because it was not considered important. Graz is a 12th century town an UNESCO's World Heritage Site. The author Leopold von Sacher-Masoch whose name masochism was derived due to this writings, attended the University of Graz. Masochism was coined by his contemporary, the Austrian psychiatrist Richard von Krafft-Ebing. In Graz, there are beautiful castles and other extraordinary sites to visit. A must see is the glass bridge created by the late New York artist Vito Acconci.

@@GabrielTravelerVideos , as Austria is my second mostly visited foreign country (after Croatia) and I live only 15 kms away from its border, I can make some recommendations for you in both possibilities (either going to Slovenia or Slovakia) after Kufstein (or Innsbruck): 1. If going to Slovenia: Kitzbühel with the most famous downhill ski piste in the world (Streif, for race Hahnenkamm) is not far away from Kufstein. From there, you can reach the High Tauern national park where Alps are central and more igneous (magmatic), black. There are spectacular Krimml Waterfalls (total height of 380 metres, the highest in Austria) with nice hiking trail alongside them, lake town Zell am See and after that the most spectacular Austrian road, the Grossglockner High Alpine road (with really amazing views from Franz-Josefs-Höhe and Edelweissspitze) with going to the town of Lienz where there are similar rock formations than in Dolomites as there are so called Lienzer Dolomiten (Gailtal Alps). From Lienz, it is not far to Slovenia. 2. If going to Slovakia: as you have been in Austria only in Vienna and went in the direction of Graz (as I can remember), there is another gem of city in Salzburg, the Mozart town where there are also Mozartkugel (Mozart balls) as confection. Maybe you can see Mozart's birthplace and some of Salzburg Festival (Salzburger Festspiele) as Salzburg is the Austrian culture capital along with Vienna and the film The Sound of Music was filmed there and in surroundings. As for surroundings, the Salzkammergut lake region is very good and has good connections with Salzburg, especially the tourist gems Hallstatt and St. Wolfgang im Salzkammergut (with Schafbergbahn, seeing 4 lakes from the viewing point). Hallstatt Lake is a fjord-like lake and there are nice viewing points to it above Hallstatt. After Salzkammergut, it must go in the direction of Linz, Vienna and Bratislava to reach Slovakia. Either way, have a nice time, these are both very good directions.

You haven't been to Azerbaijan, right? Its partially in Europe by some definitions, and is an independent country. Full of amazing places to visit throughout the country, the area around Baku alone is well worth a week of exploring. You can visit by applying online for e-visa, basically an electronic travel authorisation (similar to the one that Europeans need when visiting the US and Canada), it takes up to 3 days to be approved, but usually within 24 hours. Due to still (!) active covid regulations, you need to arrive by flight as the land borders are closed, but this is as far as I know the only regulation and it seems they keep it to get money for their national airline. Highly recommended, you would probably love it there!

When you count the countries you’ve been to, do you count a country that you’re just in the airport for a layover? Because I’ve been to a handful of countries for layovers, but don’t count them as “visited,” even though I’m technically in the country.
@GabrielTravelerVideos 11 ай бұрын
No, I don't count a layover in an airport. I have to technically enter the country by going through customs, or else in the case of Europe land borders just cross over the border. But only crossing the border doesn't count for me, I have to actually visit the country and do something there, even if it's just for a couple hours.

Jeffrey - You should count the country that you are on the ground in, IMO. Overflights on the other hand are verboten.

BE SURE TO LISTEN TO THE LIECHTENSTEINER POLKA WHILE YOU'RE THERE. L.O.L.

Since you were born in Canada, I guess you can travel on either a Canadian OR US passport?

Does Liechtenstein means "Lightstone" or "Stone of Light" maybe ?

Hi Gabriel. I wanted to use a clip from your leichtenstien video in one of my videos. It's briefly shows the castle under renovation. I hope it's ok. I will mute the audio and blur your face. Thank you for all the content. If it's not cool just let me know or strike the video and I'll take it down. Peace my brother

@@GabrielTravelerVideos thank you. I'll post a link. It's about ripple, the crypto company. It will probably come of as nonsense but I wanted to get your permission first. Thank you for replying. Im still in editing. I'll send it to you when I'm ready to post. Thanks again
