From what I read on this sub, the focus seems to be in developing countries or Eastern Europe. Just curious as to why US/Canada isn't as popular as DN?

I get that it's more expensive but there are ways around it. I think the beauty and stuff to do in such country tops a lot of places!

Just being curious and would like to know your point of views, not trying to take away anything from other countries :)

People usually go to places that:

  1. offer good value for money
  2. offer an exciting, culturally-rich lifestyle.

The US and Canada offer neither. They’re expensive and the only culture they offer is capitalism.

Montreal & Quebec City are the closest you'll get to 2) in Canada and the US and actually, also 1), comparatively.

Lol classic anti American reddit take. Saying the US doesn't have culture is moronic.

Its “culture” is pretty bland

and it pretty much revolves around money

Not a culture I’m particularly interested in but you do you.

Sounds like something only an American would say

Uh, no. Most of the people I talk to don’t really have a strong interest in going there for the above reasons. Maybe New York for a visit, but that’s it.

Oof. You need to travel more
