What's your favourite country and why?
Consider me a weeb but I like Japan, it has some truly beautiful nature and cuisines to try across the country.
Yes, there is a bit of that anime or gaming side to it, they've birthed many favourite nostalgic franchises of mine like Crash Bandicoot or Pokemon.
I also really like their architecture with their traditional houses and castles, the whole thing just seems really peaceful and tranquil given it it is a "quiet and polite" country.
Their country might be set in their ways but that is what I think makes the country special, keeping its traditions, beliefs and culture for many, many years.
My bro likes Spain because of their food and hot sunny weather 😎
What about you? What country do you like and why?

Scotland, hands down. I feel so lucky to be living here. I was only going to stay three years & then go back to New Zealand and settle down. Thirty-five years later I'm still here. I fell in love with the hills - and the freedom to walk on them - the lochs, the ancient ruins. But most of all I fell in love with the people. Their craic, their warmth and craziness, their generosity, their music. I love that you can talk to anyone and you'll often hear an amazing life story.
I love things like this: https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/scottish-news/anti-deportations-group-issues-guide-24107754
I love the cultural richness that's come from successive waves of immigration, from Italy, India & Pakistan, China, Poland and more.
I love the food. I love haggis and Arbroath smokies and Aberdeen butteries and shortbread and oatcakes and Tunnocks caramel wafers.
And least I forget, yes, I love the weather.

Was with you til the end mate the weather is pish.
Grew up between England/Belgium/States but the vibe is just not the same.
Fry-up with a few crispy roles is also hands-down the best breakfast in the world, other countries aren't even trying.
Very heart warming article and wish my area was like-minded (the political leaders even acknowledged there was a covid outbreak going on). The page/article format is atrocious though lol, I kept thinking it was the end till I scrolled further like 4 times.
