Argentina and Greece.

Yes I like these two places also. The steaks in Argentina are to die for and pretty cheap too.

italy overrated

I’ve been to Genoa, Pisa, Lucca, Bergamo, Florence, Rome, Cinque Terre, Milan, Venice and Brindisi. 

This was probabaly over 3 trips to Italy. The people - amazing. Coffee shops - incredible. Gelato - always good. Local Restaurants - superb. You just can’t compare to authentic Italian food. And Milan is one of the fashion capitals of the world. I’ve bought some cool leather jackets and briefcases from Milan.

Not sure where you had a bad experience, but in general, Italy is the shit and that’s facts bro.

After finishing my 2nd year in banking, collected my bonus and savings, left my job, and went to study and live abroad in Israel for as long as I could… lol. Was great. Was able to be out there for a little over a year. A+ vacay thankfully…. :)

thanks to a lot of people who helped make that happen for me too :)

 

In undergrad, did a country hopping trip with my sister and her friend - France, Spain, then Morocco. Morocco was absolutely beautiful, very cheap, and a great experience. 
 

More recently, did a quick trip to La Paz, BCS with my SO and it was so relaxing. Weather was hot, but very easy to rent a boat to head to all the cyrstal blue coves for paddle boarding, snorkeling, whale watching (including an awesome experience to swim with whale sharks) etc. Also local tour guides that offer those kind of excursions for relatively cheap.
