@@canismajoris6733 Yes, in Iran an Irish tourist was recently arrested and sentenced to 10 years in prison on spy charges because he was taking pictures of the country. This guy sugar-coated A LOT . Saying that a country is safe because nothing happened to him is just a plain fallacy. It can be indeed a beautiful country with nice locals but would you risk getting arrested out of nowhere and being thrown in jail without even a fair trial, just for the sake of "nature and hospitality"? A country may be safe on the a street level, but what do you even do when government itself is the bad guy?

The portion of Afghanistan made me suddenly start crying involuntarily. Seeing those clips and hearing your words made me wish how much I had the opportunity to experience that country the way you did. I spent a couple years cumulatively in Afghanistan as a Marine and then as a contractor, but my experiences were vastly different. Despite being there in a different capacity, one of the things I remember most is how gorgeous that country is, and how varying the terrain is depending on where you are. Sunrises in the mountains and valleys in the Nangarhar & Kunar provinces will always stay with me. I would have loved to see where the Buddha’s stood, but the country was surrounded by history everywhere. I remember coming to land our helicopter at a small FOB south of Kabul and having a guy point to an old structure on top of a small hill and yelling “f*cking Alexander the Great, dude.” I remember taking a picture of the old fort from a distance and thinking how neat it would be to go walk through there and think about the history of that spot. The most kind and deserving people ever. One of my happiest memories is of when we gave a pack full of random books to a local villager in our area. The tears of joy and him wiping them away and asking us to take his picture with us and the books. He was learning English and hoped to come to the U.S. one day with his family. His only way of practicing English was with troops and old pages from magazines and other reading stuff he had collected over time. Giving him that bag of random books was like a pathway to his dream in that moment. It’s interesting now, looking back at all the people you met in what feels like an entirely separate life, and thinking where they’re all at now. How many got out, how many are hiding, how many are dead. All displaced. That said, those are some of the toughest people I’ve ever met so I have hope. Inshallah, right? Thank you for the memories, and I couldn’t be happier that I’ve stumbled across your page.

As a Persian, no offense to you, I found it quite insulting to be said we're similar to Afghans! Vast majority of Iran's population is educated! There are more than 2000 universities all over Iran and some of the best schools of the world like Sharif university. Majority of Iranian either don't believe in Islam and dont identify themselves as Muslim specially among the young generation of Iran (exactly opposite in Afghanistan). Iran's cusine, literature and cultre is incomparable with Afghans and you mentioned it's similar! They're not! Iran government is to blame for all these.

Thanks a lot for including Mexico on the list! 🇲🇽 🇲🇽 🇲🇽 There are indeed places to avoid, like anywhere else in the world, but if you travel with someone local who knows where to go, how to get there, and the best things to do, you will have an extraordinary experience. (That's what we do, sorry for the add). Just a clarification, the archaeological site of Teotihuacan is not part of the Mayan culture and not even of the Aztec one. It is older; it thrived until 750 CE, and the people that built it was, no surprise, the Teotihuacans. Later, the Aztecs named it Teotihuacan, meaning the birthplace of the gods. Apologies if someone already wrote this somewhere (there are too many comments!).

I loved Afghanistan, which I visited in 1975. Herat was like stepping back 1000 years, all mud brick buildings, even my hotel, almost no cars, just horse carts and electricity only about four hours per day. I remember falling asleep to the sound of horses pulling their carts. The people were fantastic. They were the most proud, independent people I've ever met and no foreign power can ever invade them successfully. The Russians and Americans were fools to try. I hope this country regains it's freedom soon. I rank it as the most interesting country I've been to, I been to over 110. Can't wait to go back. Turkey, Mexico and the Philippines are also great places. Other countries I loved include Greece, Brazil, Nepal, India, and many more.

Filipinos are so used to disasters that even when the greatest flood in the Philippines happened (see Typhoon Ondoy), the people were still laughing and merrily singing happy birthday to a birthday celebrant even though the first floor of their house was already submerged. The Filipinos know that any disaster that they encounter is just temporary. As long as no one dies (or the house totally destroyed), then there is no need to be depressed.

I really enjoyed this video, mostly because all of your choices were actually on my no wish to travel to, but now definitely rethinking my choices. So, thanks for expanding my horizons. New subscriber looking forward to watching more of your videos.

What a fantastic video. How positive, well informed, open minded, intelligent, and coming from the heart. And how much respect and humility you show vis-a-via the countries and cultures you visited. I wish more people were carrying your mindset. I haven’t, of course, been to as many country as you have, but none of my favorites made your list - often the immediate neighboring country though. So Czech Republic instead of Hungary, Venezuela instead of Colombia, Lebanon instead of Syria, Namibia instead of South Africa. I agree with you on Turkey and Japan, and I would love to travel to Iran.

Your videos are so inspiring Drew! After your Mexico videos I took a trip to the heart of the country and had some of the best experiences of my life! Thank you so much for your videos and stay awesome!

Yes sir!!! Top 1!! Thanks for all the compliments to our country

This video is really making us want to explore the world so much more! Turkey and the Philippines are places we've been longing to go to for ages. Good to hear they live up to the hype!

Iran kind of surprised me but then what you said reminded me that the West vilifies them so much. I've met many Iranians as where I live is pretty multicultural and they are all the most amazing people. One of my former coworkers was Iranian and despite it being more than 10 years since I worked at that company I think about him a lot as he left a big impact on my life.

It’s nice to see that this ranking is done through the people, beauty and culture and what they can give to you as a traveler.

You are amazing and so open minded. You have addressed every stereo type an American has about these countries. You have opened my mind to possibly visiting some of these places. Thanks for your insight. Dave

I kinda knew Turkey and Iran would be on your list but was not sure. I am from Iran, Live in U.S. and live part time in Turkey soon to become full time. Iran, U.S. and Turkey have a special place in my heart. Over the years, anyone that has told me they were in Iran as a tourist or maybe working there, have never had one person say they had a bad experience. They all loved it. Love of guests is in our culture. Glad you liked it.

Venezuela truly is magical. There is no place in the world quite like it. It’s been 5 years since I’ve been there, and I want to go back so bad. Even though I was born and raised in the US, as a Venezuelan myself, there’s something about it that gravitates me. It really feels like home. I hope things improve over there, I know I’ll absolutely move there if they do.

@@sleepnomore6065 There is such a strong negativity bias portrayed in the media, especially regarding failed states such as Venezuela. All we seem to hear about from outside the country is how awful it is. What the media does not care to show is the rich culture, lovely people, and beautiful landscapes of Venezuela. A government, no matter how bad it may be does not define the people. In fact, the terrible government has united the people in solidarity against it which I have seen strongly in my own personal circles. We can’t ignore the issues that take place but we shouldn’t dwell on them either. I can’t describe why Venezuela is such a special place. It’s something that must be experienced. I’m not asking you or anyone to visit Venezuela, but I encourage you to look beyond what the media portrays and see a the richness behind my country. Fear might discourage some, but those who live beyond it live the kind of lives that most only dream of.

I was waiting to hear México before giving the thumbs 😁 👍 and very happy to hear about Venezuela because it has had it so rough in the last years but Venezuelan people are so nice. So sad to know about Afghanistan.

I loved the Philippines too. I lived there as well, recommend going

I have 4 favourite countries: 4th place is Hungary. I went to Budapest in 2019 and loved it! It's a really beautiful city. I ate one of the best cakes I ever remember eating; a walnut cake. I also bought a CD from one of my favourite bands. We weren't there for long, but only positive memories remain! 3rd place is England. I always feel at home in England. I've only been to London and Brighton but I've visited multiple times and I've always had a good time. I want to go back soon, I just have to work on my anxiety a bit more first. 2nd place is my father's birthplace, Norway. Half of my family live in Lofoten which is a beautiful place. I recommend everyone to go there at least once in their life! There are beautiful mountains to hike, they have the famous midnight sun and there are lots of small beautiful towns and lots of beautiful nature! 1st place is Japan. I visited in 2018 and was only there for a week but I've never been so happy for that long in my whole life as I was when I was in Japan. We went to South Korea during the same trip but sadly I did not have a very good time there (I've studied both Korean and Japanese as I love languages so I wanted to visit the countries). But I loved Japan. One of my dreams is to travel the country by train. I'm really interested in Northern Japan and would love to visit! It's one of the countries I can see myself living in in the future alongside England. I love travelling but I'm suffering from really bad anxiety right now so travelling has been put on-hold for now. I hope to get better so that I can travel once again.

As an Irish person I love this video. I have always found Filipino people to be so warm and hard working and have a great sense of humor. To be honest iv met people from all the countries you have mentioned and found them great. I really hope to visit the Philippines one day.
