Doug Keating outlines his desire to visit five small European countries he’s never explored or hasn’t visited in a while, favoring them for easy navigation and relative safety. These countries include the Czech Republic, known for Prague and its beer; Croatia, famous for its coastline and historical sites; Slovakia, recognized for its landscapes and castles; Denmark, noted for Copenhagen and its accessibility; and Switzerland, admired for its beauty but known as Europe’s most expensive country. Doug emphasizes careful budget planning for Switzerland.
