I've never driven in Europe -- that's another thing that I'm a little nervous about, and I think it would be difficult to do alone. But because of that, I've never been able to just drive around the countryside and find the little villages. Hmm, I might have to put that on the list for something to try to do someday, preferably with a traveling companion who can navigate. (I have a terrible sense of direction myself.)
I actually have been to Prague, which I think of as more Central Europe (or maybe Eastern Europe lite?), but I got to go there with a friend. Not being able to decode any of the signs even a little bit did kind of throw me, but a lot of people spoke English and in general I found it to be a great city. I'd be willing to go back there alone now, but I was glad to have company that first time.
I really want to see Russia someday, especially Moscow and St. Petersburg, but I can see it being a difficult place to manage alone. Just the alphabet is hard! I usually prefer independent travel over tour groups, but I'd be willing to consider a tour group for Russia.
Seriously, I could spend months travelling happily (if finances permitted!).
Me too! So many places that I haven't been to yet, and so many places that I want to go to again!
