Question:
Humans say...

Jessica
Cambodia and Portugal are my two favorites!

Sue
Jessica Thorton - please recommend favourites for Portugal.... heading to Lisbon but wondering where else we should go

Daniel
South east Asia should be on your radar. It’s amazing.

Elaine
Loved Vietnam, and New Zealand is amazing!

Shalini
We’ve travelled a lot and of the places that has blown us away is Guatemala. Antigua is spectacular. Look it up. I think it’s one of the nicest most beautiful places I’ve ever been. We just got back from a few weeks exploring Bali and it’s beaches. It was really nice and the people and culture is amazing. Also the Netherlands is awesome. Road tripping through that area is so easy and beautiful.

Leona
Shalini the food was extremely mediocre in Guatemala.. but besides that, I think Guatemala was one of my favourite countries in Central America!

Shalini
Leona totally agree. It’s not foodie heaven but it sure is spectacular. We took a bus to Belize at the end of that trip and the seafood there was incredible

Sandie
Shalini we are debating Quatemala or Venezuela

Shalini
Sandie oh nice! I have never been to Venezuela. If you do Guatemala, we did El Salvador, took a bus to Guatemala (Antigua, Lake Atitlan, and Tikal) and then finished off in Belize. The snorkeling and diving in Belize is incredible. And We only stayed on Caye caulker and ambergris caye. Both were totally different from one another but so fun.

Sandie
Shalini thank you

Tamara
Sandie Venezuela? Unsafe, rioting and food shortages. Not a wise decision.

Sylvia
Poland is lovely especially the southern regions like Zakopane. Cheap food and booze!

Shalini
Sylvia yes Poland is awesome. And so much history. We did some hiking and climbed Mount Rysy when there. It’s pretty amazing.
Okay I can’t believe I forgot to mention Greece and Albania. Sounds like you’ve done lots of Europe but we did a road trip (flew to Corfu, took a ferry to Albania and rented a car) over two weeks and we drove the Albanian coast up to Montenegro and croatia (Dubrovnik) I had no idea how many beautiful beaches there are in Albania. Ksamil is probably the nicest water and beach I’ve ever seen. Corfu is also incredible.

Cheryl
Vietnam was really nice and very affordable

Mark
Vietnam!

Cathy
My two most interesting and memorable trips were Vietnam and South Africa. The places we’ve visted most frequently are Greece, Italy and Thailand.

Aleyschi
Albania, Tanzania, Philippines

Vasile
Kenya

Ted
Jordan left an impression with us, both good (scenery) and not so good (the haggling, tourist rip-off culture). I'd go quickly before the Kingdom explodes. Petra and Wadi Rum are the most scenic places I've visited. I've been to 48 ocuntries.)

David
Nepal and Czech Republic are my top two

Jenn
Thailand and Nepal. Can’t go wrong with SE Asia!

Joanne
Iceland in January was one of my best trips . Northern Lights, sunrise at 10 am. It was cold but not bitter cold at all.

Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam

Kim
I think you should be giving us the travel advice!! What was your favourite must do in a life time place??

Sandie
Kim my absolutely favourite was 25 days kind of around world trip. We did Beijing, Rome, venice, Mulan,Germany, Switzerland, I'm sure I'm missing some as that was 5 years ago, we are the type to not do resorts and see everything, we also did this and stopped in between small places even if it was for a few hours, did the train through Europe, my husband is an amazing planner, I could be wrong but we did at least 5 countries and i think we spent about 2500 per person

Sandie
Peru we did also on our own and I would go back in a heart beat

Sandie
If your interested in our cheap 5 country trip I can get you the details of how we did it

Kim
Sandie wow! That would be so amazing! I will keep this in mind for when my child is grown! Would love to see those places. Was it overwhelming to see that all in the same trip??

Kim
Sandie yes my aunt and uncle did Peru and loved it too!

Kim
Sandie yes please!!!!!!!!

Sandie
It wasnt overwhelming but you have to be the type to go go go. We got up at 6 or 7 and went until 10 or 11 at night

Mike
Sandie absolutely please!

Sandie
Mike Lefaivre what are you looking for, some of that cost especially in Beijing was staying for free with people we knew, but we also got very cheap air bnb as well

Sandie
Kim in Peru we stayed with locals was amazing!!!

Sandie
Natalie no I only know a few words but hope to learn more by December, my husband is better lol. It sounds we are leaning to quatemala as the flights are reasonable

Hi Sandie, would you be interested in Grenada (the Caribbean island)? It’s luscious as can be an absolutely unspoiled by tourism plus, it is known as one of the safest islands on the Caribbean.
I am hosting a retreat here in a beautiful villa steps away from the beach. It would be an absolute pleasure to have your energy in the space and show you this magical place. http://mypretendlife.com/.../reclaim-your-connection-to.../

My Favorite Travel Destination
Since you've been to quite a few countries and are looking for an exotic destination to visit in November, I would highly recommend exploring the vibrant and culturally rich Morocco.
Morocco is a land of contrasts, where ancient traditions seamlessly blend with modern influences. From the bustling souks of Marrakech to the tranquil kasbahs of the Sahara Desert, this North African country offers a truly unique and immersive travel experience.
In November, the weather in Morocco is pleasantly warm and sunny, making it an ideal time to explore the country's diverse landscapes. You can wander through the narrow alleys of Fez's medieval medina, marvel at the intricate architecture of the Hassan II Mosque in Casablanca, or embark on a camel trek across the golden dunes of the Sahara.
Moroccan cuisine is a highlight in itself, with flavors influenced by Berber, Arabic, Mediterranean, and Moorish traditions. Savor the aromatic tagines, indulge in the sweet and savory pastries, and sip on refreshing mint tea while soaking up the vibrant atmosphere.
Beyond the cities, Morocco offers a wealth of natural beauty. Explore the stunning Ourika Valley, with its cascading waterfalls and lush valleys, or venture into the High Atlas Mountains for scenic hikes and encounters with the friendly Berber communities.
With its rich history, captivating culture, and breathtaking landscapes, Morocco promises to be an unforgettable and truly exotic destination for your November adventure.
