United States of America
Canada
The America's don't always sound like an exciting destination to those of us from North America, but you'd be
shocked at how much there is to do and see even on ones's own home continent 🔍.
The American West or the ancient civilizations of Southern Jungles are truly one of a kind and shouldn't be missed.
It's mostly budget friendly, with destinations of average or below average cost and, despite some health & safety considerations in the Central / Southern regions, solo travel is easy & common.
