    This is why I love Alex and vagabrothers they are so genuine people they don't discriminate country on the basis of rich or poor they are ready to visit any country which has great places to offer. They are even ready to travel countries which no one even imagine and would not like to visit like Pakistan and Bangladesh More travellers should be like Alex and Marco who put there prejudice aside while visiting a country and focus on the culture of the society.

If you still want to be a part of heavy traffic and chaos then it's up to you. Do visit these places in Delhi: Lotus temple, Bangla Sahib Gurudwara, Humayun tomb and Akshardham temple.

    My grandparents are from the Cook Islands, and I try to get back there at least once a year. And it always amazes me the amount of Americans that are return visitors to the islands. I’ve met people from all over the USA and more than a few couples who have been going back year after year for 10, 20, even 30 years. I love that you’ve connected with my tiny homeland of Aitutaki, and while they might not be some of the flashiest islands to visit, they’re definitely some of the most beautiful. And yes I’m slightly biased but don’t hold that against me!

    I was in Udaipur a few weeks ago, I so agree, a must-see destination! There are many near-by amazing sights: Ranakpur Jain Temple, Kumbhalgarh Fort and Chittorgarh...all three are majestic architectural gems! Not far from Udaipur are the Bahubali Hills with stunning views over mountains half consumed by a reservoir lake, surrounded by pristine farm lands. I recommend to pair Udaipur with Aurangabad and Mumbai. Aurangabad for Ellora and Ajanta Caves, which are ancient world wonders on par with Petra, Jordan; and Lonar Lake, the world's only lake created by an asteroid impact. And of course there is Mumbai, a near endless array of superlative experiences. You can fly between Udaipur and Aurangabad direct Sundays and Wednesdays and Mumbai has daily flights to/from Aurangabad.

      Just went to Singapore 🇸🇬 in September for 10 days !!
      It was so hot and humid and expensive compared to rest of Asia but definitely with it !!
      It’s exactly as everyone says extremely safe to go everywhere !!
      Take the subway !! It is cheap and it takes you all over the city and try to stay at least one night at Marina Bay Sands !! With every penny !!

I’d also like to add in Lisbon, Portugal if I can work out the logistics for the time we have allocated. We are also traveling to Chicago for work this year and may add New York onto the trip. I’m sure there will also be a holiday in Bali, and work and family visits to the east coast of Australia. Let’s face it, flying across Australia is most peoples long haul international flight in the Northern Hemisphere. 😊

      @noanibas Před 4 lety +1

      ​@@AlexanderAyling Yes I am from Slovenia, and traveling has made me really appreciate the compact diversity of my home country. So, here are some basic recommendations:
      The coastline is just under 47km long, but I highly recommend to visit Piran, Secoveljske soline and Izola or Koper (and Brtoski zatok).
      There are about 30.000 caves of which over 20 can be visited. Best is Skocjan caves (a permit for camera is needed )and the most visited is Postojna cave (the castle in your video Predjama castle is 15min away) You can check out (just sometimes the biggest) lake Cerknisko jezero.
      The wine regions are Goriska brda (includes cherry festival in spring and kaki in otom), area around Maribor (the oldest vine plant in the world) and around Ptuj (the oldest Slovenian town), and Bela krajina.
      Some other charming towns are Novo mesto, Kamnik, Škofja loka,... and as mentioned in the video, the capital Ljubljana. I recommend a minimum of 3 days just for it.
      One of my favorite places is Velika planina, a mounatain plato with unique architecture and pasture culture. Another unique region is Prekmurje, dominated by the lazy Mura river and its flood planes. Kocevje area has the best forests (in total over 60% of Slovenia is forest), with possibilities for organised bear watching (we have the highest density of bear population in Europe).
      For the mountain part of the country I recommend a road trip from Most na Soci, Tolmin, Kobarid, Bovec, Vrsic pass, Kranjska gora, Mojstrana, Vintgar (gorge), Bled, Bohinj. The road is very scenic with may opportunities for hiking short or longer distances to see waterfalls or other things.
      I hope this is helpful
