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 :)

I mean high cost of living is very true if you only consider overpriced metropolitan areas.

You can live in beautiful rural areas in the Dakota’s, much of Appalachia, Alaska, Nebraska, etc. for extremely cheap. May not be as cushy an option as a luxury resort in Bali, but plenty of cheap, beautiful, generally safe areas in both the US and Canada if you’re okay living in wilderness.

A large majority of the land in US, and especially in Canada, is secluded wilderness.
