Although traveling seems almost impossible in the current situation, nothing can stop us from dreaming about plans for the future. Still undecided about your next destination? Listen to the experienced. Young Lexie Alford, who traveled all over the world by the time she was 21, compiled a list of countries that you should not miss.
She included mainly countries famous for their natural gems on the list, as she herself is not a fan of big cities. She shared with Elle.com some of the countries in which she felt the best and which did not leave her indifferent.
Indonesia
Thinking of Indonesia too often people think of a single island, the most populated Bali. We are doing a great injustice to this country, which has more than 17 thousand islands. There are a number of islands that have not yet been reached by tourism and where you can really enjoy true peace. But if you prefer a vibrant island vibe, then Bali will be the place for you, as there's a good reason it attracts hordes of tourists every year.
Ecuador
A destination designed for lovers of active holidays. Ecuador is well known among lovers of diving and other water sports. It is famous for its beautiful nature and animal inhabitants, and you should not miss the Galapagos during your visit. Lexie is excited that in Ecuador they are well aware of the importance of protecting the natural environment and the ecosystem, because the inhabitants always come first
Laos
Neighboring countries are crumbling under the weight of tourists, Laos but often remains overlooked. Luang Prabang, the capital, is a real feast for the eyes, located along the Mekong River, and its location is perfect for exploring by kayak. Among the most beautiful experiences, Lexie describes her meeting with the monks who go to the temple in the morning.
Samoa
This small island in the South Pacific, somewhere halfway between Hawaii and New Zealand, is one of the best choices for anyone traveling solo. A visit Samoa it is recommended to everyone who wants peace and some solitude, especially in the embrace of unspoiled nature. It greets you with beautiful waterfalls and lakes, where you can quietly dive under the surface of the crystal clear water.
Iceland
Beautiful Iceland is an island where the beauty of nature really comes to the fore. Mighty volcanoes and geysers are just a fraction of these, as well as majestic glaciers and snow-capped peaks. The island of fire and ice will not leave you cold, as it impresses many tourists with its diversity, who like to return again and again. From autumn to spring, you can also admire the mighty northern lights, which will accompany your trip Iceland made even more memorable.
Pakistan
Maybe Pakistan it's not a country that makes it onto many travel bucket lists, but according to seasoned Lexie, it's worth putting on them. You will be greeted by friendly tourists who are happy to laugh at your lenses and impress you with their hospitality. It is best to discover the country with the help of a 4×4 off-road vehicle, as some roads really raise your adrenaline level.
Egypt
There is no country in the world with a more famous and well-known history than that of Egypt. Be inspired by the magnificent tombs and pyramids and the stories of the ancient Egyptians and their pharaohs. From the pyramids of Giza, there are Valleys of the Kings, every corner of Egypt which is bursting with finds and archaeological excavations. Finally, you can relax by the Red Sea, which will impress you with its colorful life below the surface.
