Travel trivia: European islands

Posted on March 11th, 2011 by Laura Byrne Paquet in Travel Trivia

Found off Albania, Corfu is part of what country?

  • Greece
  • Italy
  • Serbia
  • Turkey

Think you know the answer? Send it to me as a comment at the bottom of this post (one answer per contestant, please!). At the end of the week, I’ll draw one name from among all the people who answered correctly, and that person will receive this week’s prize: a copy of Frommer’s 500 Places Where You Can Make a Difference by Andrew Mersmann.

Come back to Facing the Street tomorrow for another travel trivia question and another chance to win a prize. And if you can’t wait until then for your trivia fix, check out my husband Paul’s trivia site, TriviaHallOfFame.com. (He provided this question, BTW.)

This contest closes at 5:00pm EST on Friday, March 11, 2011.
