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 :)

Americans see a lot of it growing up here visiting friends and family. The only stuff worth seeing is public lands and ghost towns since every town is the same series of strip malls and box stores. There are a few worthwhile cities as well, mostly the priciest.

So either you’re a devoted outdoors person when here or you don’t see much of the good stuff

Oof. Need to travel more. There's plenty else to see

There's an entire section of the country that Americans like to call 'the fly-over states'...

And you'd be foolish to believe it. Those same types of people would never visit southeast Asia
