These are the countries you really want to go to in 2019
Somewhere those cold winter months are also quite nice (hi hot chocolate, hi fireplace), but nothing beats the sun. Already feeling like dusting off your passport and planning trips? I get it. Luckily, there are the travel experts from Lonely Planet who ‘sacrificed’ themselves to travel the world to sniff out the best destinations for us for the coming year.
The top 10 countries that are really worth it in 2019…
- Sri Lanka
- Germany
- Zimbabwe
- Panama
- Kyrgyzstan
- Jordan
- Indonesia
- Belarus
- São Tomé and Príncipe
- Belize
Why Sri Lanka at number 1? The good accessibility, the beautiful jungle, and the postcard-worthy beaches. I get it. I suddenly need to head that way. Germany seems like a strange duck in the pond, but our eastern neighbors are celebrating several anniversaries next year, including the 100th anniversary of Bauhaus and the fall of the Berlin Wall thirty years ago. Zimbabwe is at number 3 and is praised for its insane landscape where you can spot the Big Five live. If you’re wondering where Kyrgyzstan is: in Central Asia. Oh and, São Tomé and Príncipe consists of several islands and is located off the west coast of Africa. And May, do you see that? Belize! (inside info: May named her daughter after this beautiful place).
And how about the city trips?
- Copenhagen, Denmark
- Shenzhen, China
- Novi Sad, Serbia
- Miami, USA
- Kathmandu, Nepal
- Mexico City, Mexico
- Dakar, Senegal
- Seattle, USA
- Zadar, Croatia
- Meknès, Morocco
So indeed, Copenhagen. Goodness, NEVER been there either. I don’t know about you, but I’m going to expand that bucket list. Joe!
