Canada is the world’s second largest country after Russia. It is simply enormous, measuring almost 4 million square miles, or nearly 10 million square kilometres in area and has more lakes and inland waters than any other country. Some of the lakes are so huge that you can stand on the shore and imagine you are standing at the edge of an ocean. The provinces are so vast that it can take over 24 hours to drive from one border to the next. And all this space is home to around 32 million people, little more than half the population of the United Kingdom.

Belgrade is a tough place to describe. Most of the ex-pats living in the capital of Serbia often compare it to the desert planet of Arrakis from Frank Herbert’s Dune, because it seems somewhat desolate from the outside, but those who live even a short while can’t live without it for long.
The area which now comprises the city was inhabited well before modern humans came to the region, with some spearheads and bone tools dating as far back as 160.000 years BCE and were created by the Neanderthal tribes that hunted Mammoths roaming the Pannonia grasslands

Others prefer to visit the most popular beach resorts such as Tangier and Agadir and hiking spots across the country’s diverse mountain ranges. However, there are plenty of reasons to make a stopover to Casablanca, the biggest city in Morocco for a few days.

In my languages’ classroom at school in England, the teacher had put up a tourist poster of an amazing fantasy castle which I later found out was called ‘Neuschwanstein’. As an adult I was able to visit this enchanting 19th century dream palace of King Ludwig II of Bavaria, one of many built by this mysterious and castle-obsessed monarch.

According to the country’s tourist board, Croatia’s Adriatic coast is “the Mediterranean as it once was”, and indeed most of the tourists who make it the 18th most popular destination in the world flock either to the Istrian peninsula in the north or the Dalmatian coast further south. The Romans were there from the 1st to the 7th century AD, and they left behind many well preserved buildings of great interest. Other architectural influences include Venice (Istria is the closest part of Croatia to Italy) and Austria.
