Guernsey

Guernsey Airport (EGJB/GCI)

🇬🇬

Guernsey was once a part of mainland Europe some 8,000 years ago, though rising sea levels have since separated them from the mainland. That said, the island wasn’t neglected in the time since, with it being home to one of the world’s largest tidal ranges where locals and tourists often visit.

Despite that, it is considered to be a British Crown Dependency, meaning that it is defended and represented internationally by the government of the United Kingdom. It was once a favourite holiday destination of Karl Marx, and was occupied by the Germans during the Second World War, with remnants of the war still present to this day.

Belgium

Liège Airport (EBLG/LGG)

🇧🇪

Belgium, a country famous for Formula 1 fans, playing host to the Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps, which while probably the second fastest track so far this year and the longest track in the whole season, was the shortest race with the longest lap times for reasons I’m sure we all know of. As quick as it was, the track was deadly, with the most recent casualty being Anthoine Hubert, a Renault Motorsport development driver who was gaining momentum throughout the season until that point.

Denmark

Copenhagen Airport (EKCH/CPH)

🇩🇰

I need not say more than Denmark being the home to Lego. Having spent possibly months assembling Lego models with my friends, this is something I’m really looking forward to getting back into, though time is something that I rarely have in this day and age.

🇨🇿

The Czech Republic is thought to be one of the safest countries in the world to live in. Often being placed in the top 10 globally even. It also has well over half a million foreigners living within its borders, which may not sound like a lot, but when you factor that they are a country of just under 11 million, that’s a lot of foreigners.

Poland

Kraków John Paul II International Airport (EPKK/KRK)

🇵🇱

Poland is well known for a lot of reasons, while often times it could be bad, I tend to remember them for good reasons. Particularly so, Polish Vodka tends to give me a good time, and it’s that reason alone, which is why I love Poland. It was also home to the tallest structure in the world until 1991, when the Warsaw radio mast stood at a height of about 640 meters.

Bosnia and Herzegovina

Sarajevo International Airport (LQSA/SJJ)

Bosnia and Herzegovina is a country with a rich but complex history. Being a relatively young country, only legally and officially formed in 1995, the country has endured violence and civil unrest, most famously with the Bosnian War.

Saudi Arabia

King Abdulaziz International Airport (OEJN/JED)

🇸🇦

This year, Jeddah played host to the inaugural Saudi Arabian Grand Prix, which was the penultimate race of the thrilling 2021 F1 Season. As intriguing as this race was, this was a race filled with controversy, with the two title protagonists, coming together in what can only be described as a highly unusual set of circumstances. While the race was an enjoyable race to watch from the entertainment’s perspective, I hope to never see a repeat of what happened that weekend.

Georgia

David the Builder Kutaisi International Airport (UGKO/KUT)

🇬🇪

Georgia is still considered to many as a rather unknown and mysterious holiday destination, and with the country being between Asia and Europe, it stands to reason that the geography of the country is what they’re incredibly proud of. Georgia is also thought to have been home to some of the oldest communities in the world, with human skulls found to have been over 1.8 million years old, indicating that human presence in the region started possibly millions of years ago.

Armenia

Zvartnots International Airport (UDYZ/EVN)

Armenia was the first nation to adopt Christianity, which occurred as soon as the 4th century as the state religion.

The country is also known to have one of the world’s oldest capital, with its capital, Yerevan, being constructed about 30 years before Rome was constructed.
