United Kingdom
Dynamic and diverse as well as tranquil and serene, the UK has a massive range of things to offer. London is one of my favorite cities in the world but what really excites me is getting out into the countryside. The home of so much pop culture and so much history this place has something for everyone, no matter what you seek.
