What is your next travel destination?

I love Latin America; I have visited all the countries in Central America!  Bali it the place I have visited the most over the years. I live in the Netherlands and have traveled almost all the countries in Europe. I can’t say what country  I like the most; every country has their own unique character and beauty in nature, culture, ancient sites, and unique people. That is why I love to travel, explore the unknown and experience the beauty of each country. My blogs are honest, easy to read with a lot of photos to give you a good impression of the travel destination. You can find a itineraries, things to do, accommodation suggestions, cost indications next to my true feeling of the place.
