My top 5 countries for the future
TBH there aren’t many countries I wouldn’t want to go. But, I also don’t want to just wizz around the world collecting countries with no respect to stay and hang out and explore the traditions.
A few of the countries above have just been for the day – on cruises, or tours – and there is a belief that you can’t say you’ve ‘been’ to a country unless you’ve actually stayed the night.
It’s all fun to me.
– Cruising the waterways of Japan
There are still so many places I’d like to go, here are my top choices.
1. Albania
How amazing does Albania look? I’d love to visit and spend a few days on the beach, and a few days exploring the country a bit more. There looks to be so much to do, and at a great price too.
2. Cyprus
I’d love to do a fly and flop holiday here, just to try out one of the amazing resorts with my family – and enjoy some of the delicious Cypriot cuisine!
3. Oman
And Oman, I mean the pictures are amazing. I’d love to look around and experience the architecture for myself. It just looks like pure middle east opulence at its most incredible. I want to look round Muscat of course, but I’d also love to camp out in the sand dunes. Looks awesome.
4. Colombia
I’ve still never been to South America! Crazy hey. I’ve only ever been down as far as Costa Rica, in Central America. I think next year it’s time to rectify that and after watching Narcos on Netflix, I’m kinda crazy for Colombia. Anyone I know who’s been has absolutely loved it and say it’s one of the best countries to visit. I want to see for myself!
5. Peru
And then Peru – I mean, who doesn’t want to go to Peru? The scenery is a huge draw just in itself, but what about the culture, and the food too. I just want in on all of it.
