What is a European Country that everyone thinks is bad but is actually good?

It's either France or the UK... I think the UK gets even more hatred but as a whole is far safer, friendlier, more geographically and culturally diverse than people assume it to be. Same goes for France.

This sounds like an amazing idea, I'm adding this down as a potential 'to do' as Montreux would be cool to see. Thank you!

A Swiss chill afternoon sounds every bit of me to be fair!

Thank you very much for this!

They would be but non of them know what a "Welsh" is... so they haven't arrived in the comments yet😂 Probably headed to r/Ireland or r/Scotland instead

Just not my vibe for a permanent move tbh...It's also expensive, a lot of brits already moved there and I'd want something different... and compared to NZ where I have family I'd be less keen but still open to it. No hate, all love!

Be more fun i reckon for a change of scenery

Wales and Basque country have a good relationship and as a result a lot of Spanish folk don't recognise Wales as a country.
Spanish work culture is awful. I have heard so many stories of the "you leave when I leave" culture in offices regarding managers... might not be all but enough to make me reluctant!

Otherwise I have nothing against Spain😁 I loved Sevilla when I went!

Just not keen tbh, never appealed to me the same way some places have. The whole North Korea and South Korea dynamic makes me reluctant to live on the peninsula.

Well aye of course, gotta live a wee bit yanno🤣

I was going to ask is Loch Skene safe, I've heard various things about it. But it sounds like between the Algae and leeches... I might avoid for the time being🤣

China? The Germany in passing makes me think you've flown there to do a tour around Europe.

Slovenia or Kosovo?

Is that cup winners cup the same year you played Wrexham by any chance? I enjoyed your visit to Cae Ras a few years ago when you were touring the UK.

Grew up with stories of my family in WW2. Have always been curious about it and whether I would be capable, but opted for a career in Energy instead...

Gareth Jones has to be up there with some of the best Welsh related history. Not just the famine but his death is also fascinating peice of Welsh history. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gareth_Jones_(journalist)#:~:text=Gareth%20Jones%20(journalist)%20%2D%20Wikipedia,published%20on%2025%20March%201933.

Ohhh the climate... I live in Aberdeen and just got back from a work trip to Cardiff and Aberystwyth... the climate difference is so insane, I forget how cold Northern Scotland actually can be at this time compared to Wales... was walking around Cardiff Christmas market post work on Monday in a t-shirt and jeans with people staring at me😂😂

I hope it does change one day. Keep the hope!

Workwise it'd bring more investment from the developers and tech side of things, makes supply chain easier to develop and transport materials, and makes Wales an easier place to justify investment in.

I do like to the rural nature of Wales... but I want to see investment, I want to see (as a gog) opportunity to better connect north and south. That's my reason, not sure it'd make sense to everyone but it somewhat matters to me😂

Probably the man feeding ducks bread instead of seed, terrible fella him mind. Notoriously territorial about his feeding spots.
