United States

As the third largest country in the world, the United States is wildly diverse and expansive. Connected in part by large swaths of highways, freeways, and interstates (which comes as no surprise given the American love of road trips), the states are covered in forests, small towns, greats plains, deserts, mountains and big cities, to name a few. From historical, coastal New England towns to the sprawling, palm-tree-lined boulevards of LA, the US is an experiment in diversity and ingenuity in grand scale.

Speaking of scale, you’ve likely already heard that the US has a “go big or go home” philosophy. Whether you’re enjoying bold Napa Valley wines on a honeymoon or exploring the country’s first-rate, amenity-filled cities, this is the land for keeping your real or symbolic plate full. Of course, nowhere is this spirit more evident than in the country’s unofficial capital and mascot, New York City. From Broadway to Brooklyn, New York is a dazzling display of the country’s indomitable attitude, luring millions of visitors each year with its non-stop, world-class options. You will exhaust your resources and energy in New York before you’ve exhausted your to-do list. Thankfully, you can return just as often as you’d like.
