I agree Jan Yeo, there are some nice bits in Wales but that's all it is, nice. Scotland is nice too, but hardly OMFG wow country.

I think that's part of the charm. Just because the landscape is dramatic it doesn't necessarily mean it's beautiful. Think of it the same way as beautiful breasts,is bigger always better?Quote:

I mean countries with ideal combination of land and ocean offer more preference of beautiful looks of mountain, river sea or beach.
In regard to the whole things of life, isn't it currently Norway the best country for working and living?
Anyone ever heard of the Western Hemisphere?
Mexico, duh!
