Most Beautiful Countries

From Africa, the Americas and Europe

It's not an easy task to choose the most beautiful from 44 countries I've visited so far. More countries will be very soon included in this list (see below).


The United States
The United States is the number one country to visit for many reasons; wonderful places to discover such as the Grand Canyon, the Yosemite Park, the Big Sur beach and Everglades National Park.

Moreover, there are plenty of other great places to visit, including cities, national parks, shopping for tourists and other attractions.

France
For its incredible diversity of landscapes France comes next to The United States;.

France is a must-see country for lovers of gastronomy, wine, cheese, fashion and many other prestigious products. With a rich historical heritage and many castles, for me, it is an irresistible destination.

The United Kingdom
The UK is a holiday destination that should definitely be on your bucket list.

For me, London, Westminster Abbey, the British Museum and London's nightlife are worth a visit. Shopping is also a must.

Italy
Italy, in addition to its diverse landscapes, is worth visiting because it is one of the cradles of our civilization. In addition, the cuisine and wines, as well as fashion and style, are unmistakable aspects of this welcoming country. For me, the Colosseum in Rome, the Leaning Tower of Pisa and Venice are unmissable destinations.
