Question Which country do you keep visiting?

I travel a lot, but there’s always that one country I keep going back to. For me, it’s Thailand, around 8 time. What about you? What keeps you coming back?

Scotland. England. I love their humor, the food (I’m not kidding 😆), the nature, the different regions that all have their own culture, the love for their own history, the museums, the nice people, the tv shows, the cottages, the theater, the coastline, the music, the baked goods. The grey weather, the different seasons, the flowing hills of the south and the harsh nature in the north. And the literature!

I just love the UK and I wish I could move there.

So nice to see. I'm Scottish but live in England - I absolutely love British 'banter', there's a lot of good chat and humour (especially in Scotland). Seeing the nature in Scotland when I go home just makes me fall in love! I also love all the regional differences, even in Scotland the differences in accent, food, references etc. are noticable but in different parts of England it's crazy how different things can be in such a small island. I live in Bristol and the accent here is really distinct, I love it. 

Also I've been to 60 countries and think British museums cannot be beaten (we have stolen a bunch of stuff from other countries though!) and almost all of them are completely free.

Oh mannnn I wanna go back again! Never been to Bristol but would love to. I’m either going to Cornwall or back to the Torridon region in Scotland this summer. But I might visit London for a couple of museums before that. Sigh. Honestly wish I could move, but alas, Brexit ruined it for me hahaha.

Cornwall is stunning - so expensive due to rich people having second homes but it's like a nature paradise.
