Scotland
The history of Scotland will blow you away, and its beauty will take your breath away. From the castles to liveliness of Edinburgh to the magic of Isle of Skye, there’s no shortage of things to do or see.

New Zealand
This Oceanic country, made up of two main islands, is dotted with volcanoes, hot springs, glaciers, and geysers.
