Default Which was the Best Country you ever Visited?

I mean in terms of nightlife, scenery, things to do and the people.

When I was in Germany and Austria, what did impressed me was the people who couldnt speak english and everybody was busy with their own life not even ready to explain a route to a tourist.


Germany as a country is awesome.

To mountain bike, especially if your into hill climbing, south of Austria and north Italy is great.

Japan is great to go visit and get the electronic toys....Montreal around easter I think is fantastic, they have some massive international fireworks thingy on which is well cool.

Love Singapore ... shopping paradise and brilliant for public transportation. Country too small tho ... lived there for 2 years and after 1 months you running out things to do and places to go.
But we still visit the place yearly for holiday.

Raffles Hotel ..... how posh

As for Singapore ... my last visit was on August 2005, I found it that the place getting more and more exspensive for tourists. But still want to go back there.

France, Italy and China. Hate Singapore too humid and clinical, there is nothing to do there if you stay for more than 2 days.

Aussies are were very friendly too! Would help, if you just looked lost ....you didn't even have to ask!!

Cheers Anya

I slight revision, I loved the countries above, but my most favourite place in the world is the Isle of Skye, I want to die there. The scenery, atmosphere and the quiet, absolute bliss! Gareth and I got married there and try and visit Skye at least once a year, but sadly not this year :-(
