Say hello to Canada! It’s in the northernmost part of the Americas. When you talk about Canada, what comes to mind? Grizzly bears? Mystifying forests? Crystal clear lakes? Or maple syrup?
I assure you, they all have that… and more.
There are vast waterfalls, nature, great food, and ice hockey. There are nice-sounding provinces. There is a corner that speaks French. And then there’s another one that speaks English and French altogether.
And let me tell you something about its people. Canada has some of the most accepting people in the world. The population is so diverse you can always find a different kind of culture in every corner.
Well, it’s not called “the land of many nations” for nothing!
I tell you, this country has never-ending possibilities.
We know it as the US. Or some people call it the United States, the USA, or whatever.
The land of the free and the home of the brave is the country we have all been familiar with since we were kids.
It has 50 states and one district, each one unique. There are beaches in Hawaii, California, Florida, and a lot more. There are mountain ranges. There are amazing landscapes you can never find anywhere else in the world.
There’s a strong Hispanic influence at the borders. There are mega cities on every corner. There’s New York and Houston to explore. There’s Vegas to enjoy.
The United States has almost everything the world can offer!
What more can you ask?
On the other hand, who would ever say no to nachos of Mexico? Or burritos? *sigh*
Just the thought of these makes me drool like crazy. And who can ever say no to beaches?
Can you ever imagine yourself at some white-sand beach in Mexico? You can hear the waves. You have a margarita (or a bottle of beer) in your hand. All these while listening to some mariachi singer serenading whoever passes by.
I tell you, that is crazily-tempting.
Like I wanna go there.. now!
All these and more are in North America. Aside from that, there’s Puerto Rico. There are the nearby Caribbean islands. There is just so much to discover in this part of the world.
What reason do you have NOT to visit this corner of the globe? I dare say you don’t have anything in mind.
So, do we say Hola Chihuahua now?
I say yes to that!
