Consider me a weeb but I like Japan, it has some truly beautiful nature and cuisines to try across the country.
Yes, there is a bit of that anime or gaming side to it, they’ve birthed many favourite nostalgic franchises of mine like Crash Bandicoot or Pokemon.
I also really like their architecture with their traditional houses and castles, the whole thing just seems really peaceful and tranquil given it it is a “quiet and polite” country.
Their country might be set in their ways but that is what I think makes the country special, keeping its traditions, beliefs and culture for many, many years.
My bro likes Spain because of their food and hot sunny weather 😎
What about you? What country do you like and why?
I haven’t seen much of the world yet. My dad was set on Germany and later Austria for holiday destinations. When I started going myself I visited Spain, Switzerland, Italy and Portugal. I’ve also been to Budapest (Hungary), Prague (Czech) and Krákow (Poland). I’ve been to England a couple of times because of family.
But lately I’ve been to Portugal a couple of times. I like the Portuguese people, the food, the wine, the environment in general, the ocean… I’ve taken to learning the language as well.
I prefer southern Europe because a) it’s Europe so still familiar but the climate is better, as are the views. But there is still so much to see…
Portuguese wine is no fucking joke - the home of both vinho verte and port along with excellent standard table wines.
The Italians don’t do a shabby job either. By and large I prefer wine south of France.
Sou brasileiro, e apoio muito o estudo do português. É uma língua rica, complexa e linda. Para mim, não há obras literárias iguais aos clássicos brasileiros e portugueses, especialmente quanto ao belíssimo uso da língua portuguesa.
Amo Machado de Assis e recomendo muito as suas obras que, além de mostrarem a beleza do português, continuam intrigantes e divertidas. Também recomendo as obras de Fernando Pessoa, caso opte por um escritor português.
Obrigado para as recomendancões! Eu tenho tentar de entender sua resposta sem tradução. Minha Português não já é muito bem, mas eu tento.
A lingua está muita linda é eu vou continuar de a estudar!
Portugal and Spain are just kind of chill, great food without the pretentiousness of Italy and France, but equally Finland seems pretty great despite quite possibly having the worst cusine in the world (berries notwithstanding) so I guess it’s not the only factor
Kraków *
Well I tried. We spell it Krakau in my language.
