Foreign Country Praise Thread....

This is meant to be a positive thread and Wales is a beautiful country with much to its credit.

you spend a few weeks dug in around sennybridge in winter and then come back and tell me how you feel.

Pen-Y-Fan (which is stunning, even in winter)

and back to Zambia.
 
The music of Janaczek, the Incomparable Emperor Rudolph II , Rabbi Lowe and the Golem

and much cheap and tasty beer

And I remember a bunch of really pretty women in the short visit I once had there. Hungary was better, though. Wowf!

So . . . Hungary
 
I guess maybe a top five will have to do for me.

#5 - Phillipines - I spent a lot of time in the Pee-Eye (Phillipine Islands) in the service. While's it's beautiful and the ladies can be very accomodating; and despite some great memories of the place, it's not my favorite.

#4 - Japan - You can't beat Japan for cultural beauty. Yeah, there are some serious xenophobic issues to most of the people, but the place is still an absolute wonder to behold.

#3 - Thailand - One word, Bangkok ...

#2 - Egypt - The Red Sea ports were incredible.

#1 - Australia - Beautiful landscapes, beautiful folks, and beautiful woman!

....think of this as un-bashing. While I presume that we all love our own countries, there is good and bad nationalism. The bad kind can often show itself in bashing foreign countries, which is different from constructive and deserved criticism of certain regimes. I'm talking about how we speak of other cultures, not governments.

So, in the interest of mutual respect, especially on an international forum like this, I have created this thread for praising various countries for their positives.

I'll start with a country that has often had testy relations with America. France. The game is to pick one thing that you like about the country in question.

The next person says what he or she likes about France. And then picks another country to praise for something good.

Not to mention that Middle Eastern women are hot.
