After visiting Sicily many times these jokes are not funny anymore.

Those Italian Mafia types are pussies. I'd be more scared of your homegrown mafia

This thread really needs links or photos....

I don't think it would be difficult to find breathtaking views of any country. It's all the same medium, so to speak, just molded, kneaded etc etc by locale...

would love to tour america, visiting all 50 states, looks like a fantastic place. Canada, New zealand, australia, italy-all pretty cool as well. but, surely every country has places of beauty and fantastic amazement? even andorra, a tiny little nation in the alps must have stunning scenery, even luxembourg? There are some beautiful places out there, but america being the size it is means it can fit more in.............
fantastic place and would love to tour

But isn't being a bigger country cheating? :p

If you related beauty to the size of the nation then New Zealand or Switzerland are more beautiful than the US. For a small island even the UK has an impressive range of scenery.

I kinda do it for a living ....it can be overrated some days.

Favourite state for scenery on the road? Wyoming is interesting, I also enjoy the desert of West Texas, and the Sierra Nevada of California, but I never get tired of the Shenandoah valley area of Virginia. Don't ask me why...just love it. Mass and New England also...especially in the fall.

One of the most beautiful views I can remember is from La Saulire on my last day at the Trois Valle. I had arranged to meet my better half and our friends there, we would have a last drink around 4 PM and then ski slowly back to Courchevel.

They didn't turn up, but I just sat there and had my glass of wine and looked around 360 degrees; and I had this intense feeling that this was God's own country that I was allowed to share for that hour. The beauty of that view, that moment, the feeling of intense achievement just being there was indescribable. Then I slowly ski-ed back down, savoring every moment, every turn until I reached Courchevel, and I headed straight to the Small creperie where they made the Grand Marnier Crepes.

God!! I'm going back there again, to ski down Jockey, Chan Rossa, Swiss, then end up at La Saulire for that last run once more. Yes!! It was God's country and I was lucky enough to be allowed to experience it.

Yes tannat this is Greece!!!
That's why I think is the most beautiful country...
Wait for some new photos :D
