Why don't you go to Gibraltar or to the Channel Islands ?
It should also be fun.

(did the Channel Islands vote for Brexit ?)


CI didn't have a vote


I am not sure that Channel Islands are part of Great Britain. They are
possessions of the English crown. Sometimes with their own parliaments.
Like Clipperton island, Mayotte or Azores, they have a special status in
the EU.


You have to be careful with the French overseas territories, most of them
are "part" of French, vote in French elections, use the Euro and ARE part of
the EU.

They are a mile away from the status of the CI/IOM.


I don't know abut the Azores
