What's your favourite country and why?

Consider me a weeb but I like Japan, it has some truly beautiful nature and cuisines to try across the country.

Yes, there is a bit of that anime or gaming side to it, they’ve birthed many favourite nostalgic franchises of mine like Crash Bandicoot or Pokemon.

I also really like their architecture with their traditional houses and castles, the whole thing just seems really peaceful and tranquil given it it is a “quiet and polite” country.

Their country might be set in their ways but that is what I think makes the country special, keeping its traditions, beliefs and culture for many, many years.

My bro likes Spain because of their food and hot sunny weather 😎

What about you? What country do you like and why?

Azerbaijan

I don’t know anything about the country. I just like to say the name.

Call me chauvinistic but France is absolutely special in many ways. The diversity of landscapes for a country this size is absolutely mad, not even considering the Outre Mer. The history is insanely rich, the culture is definitely worthwhile, and I’m not even talking about the food and its sheer diversity.

The problem is us, Frenchies, we’ve definitely lost our spark and are getting propaganded to hell. It’s a very sad state of affairs.

Less chauvinistically, I really like Norway and the Nordics in general.

Exact same, holy shit are we lucky to be here. I can’t see anything that could make me go live elsewhere honestly.

Probably the UK, mainly due to the history. You’ve got archaeology going back to the bronze age and before, well-preserved ruins from throughout the medieval era, and a very well-documented pre-modern history record.

They had a fairly unique path through global history, from the darkness of the colonial and imperial era, to being the bastion against Napoleon and then European fascism, to the seat of the voluntary and cooperative Commonwealth nations today. They’re one of the best examples of just how much a society can evolve, and are still one of a handful of European nations where the far right is struggling the most to gain a foothold. I admire that greatly.

Oh, and I never did quite grow out of my longbows-are-cool phase. And ships. Ships are cool too. And British humour is entertaining. And they like to insert a random letter U here and there for no discernable reason.

antarctica:

  • no bad politics
  • no wars so far
  • people there are mainly interested in science
  • no economic abuse or exploitation
  • pinguins!
  • no air conditioning needed to survive the summer.
  • winter is offline time, visitors won’t arrive or leave then.
  • last place to stay cool during boomers heritage “heat death of our planet”

well sure, it has downsides too. Next Rollercoaster park is -tbh- unreachable, internet connection is sloo.oo…oow (or did they already finish the submarine fibre cable?) and sunbathing basically only brings you frost bites (if you’re lucky).

However i am not planning to migrate there.

If it wasn’t for the shitty European weather I’d be seriously considering moving there, tbh. Have become fully orange-pilled over the last few years.

Just as many crazies. Just a different political system that doesn’t give them power.

Japan. practically everything I really enjoy comes from there.

It depends, each country has something to offer. I really like to go somewhere where you just don’t expect something/you have completely wrong picture about it. Just nice surprise every time you travel there. Also for travel it has to have the “I want to go there” factor, when I say to someone that USA is for me no go country because of this they usually don’t understand.

I would like to travel across the Europe, each country is interesting, even Russia (but visit Russia before Russia visits you and I just don’t want to go there now).

From Asia there are few interesting countries, Taiwan and South Korea.

On Africa I just don’t know, certainly I would like to go to Morocco, but some other countries there are on the list.

Australia and New Zealand are also high on the “I want to go there” index.

America’s - Canada, Mexico and Argentina

For living I just don’t know.

OhmsLawn ,

It entirely depends on the context.

The simple answer is that my favorite country is where my employment and loved ones are, the USA.

For travel, Probably Spain. I’ve always felt that the mix of relaxation and adventure is perfect there. I’ve always loved southern Chile, but it’s a bit too rural to feel entirely comfortable. There’s always this awareness of how much trouble I’d be in if I screwed anything up.

My favorite country is China. I like that it has a lot of Chinas. There is Shenzhen-types of China with high-tech and Xinjiang-types with endless nature. Also I like China for its politics

I haven’t seen much of the world yet. My dad was set on Germany and later Austria for holiday destinations. When I started going myself I visited Spain, Switzerland, Italy and Portugal. I’ve also been to Budapest (Hungary), Prague (Czech) and Krákow (Poland). I’ve been to England a couple of times because of family.

But lately I’ve been to Portugal a couple of times. I like the Portuguese people, the food, the wine, the environment in general, the ocean… I’ve taken to learning the language as well.

I prefer southern Europe because a) it’s Europe so still familiar but the climate is better, as are the views. But there is still so much to see…

Portuguese wine is no fucking joke - the home of both vinho verte and port along with excellent standard table wines.

The Italians don’t do a shabby job either. By and large I prefer wine south of France.

Sou brasileiro, e apoio muito o estudo do português. É uma língua rica, complexa e linda. Para mim, não há obras literárias iguais aos clássicos brasileiros e portugueses, especialmente quanto ao belíssimo uso da língua portuguesa.

Amo Machado de Assis e recomendo muito as suas obras que, além de mostrarem a beleza do português, continuam intrigantes e divertidas. Também recomendo as obras de Fernando Pessoa, caso opte por um escritor português.

Vinny_93 ,

Obrigado para as recomendancões! Eu tenho tentar de entender sua resposta sem tradução. Minha Português não já é muito bem, mas eu tento.

A lingua está muita linda é eu vou continuar de a estudar!

Just vacationed in Belize. Tiny place near Guatemala and Mexico on the Caribbean. It’s the only English speaking country in South America; founded by English pirates who wanted to steal Spanish gold. Great food, friendly people, and interesting history.
