USA
From sea to shining sea, there are more glories and delights in the USA than you could hope to fit into one lifetime: so what’s it to be? Montana’s mountain majesty? New York’s concrete canyons, buzzing with life and excitement? Or fall in New England, the sugar maples blazing so brilliantly you can almost feel the heat?
Yes, you’ve seen it all before on the screen, but real life is so much more real! And it’s a crazy feeling to go for the first time to somewhere so familiar. In person you can catch the vibe on Venice Beach, taste the coffee and beignets in New Orleans, feel the magic of Disneyland, be dazzled by the lights of Vegas. You have to stand beside the Grand Canyon to have even a chance of grasping its immensity, and its silence.
There’s history here, and the future too; art, architecture, fashion, food and fun; sophistication and simple pleasures – something for everyone. And maybe best of all? The people. Genuinely friendly, warmly welcoming and keen to share their country. What are you waiting for?
