Consider me a weeb but I like Japan, it has some truly beautiful nature and cuisines to try across the country.

Yes, there is a bit of that anime or gaming side to it, they've birthed many favourite nostalgic franchises of mine like Crash Bandicoot or Pokemon.

I also really like their architecture with their traditional houses and castles, the whole thing just seems really peaceful and tranquil given it it is a "quiet and polite" country.

Their country might be set in their ways but that is what I think makes the country special, keeping its traditions, beliefs and culture for many, many years.

My bro likes Spain because of their food and hot sunny weather 😎

What about you? What country do you like and why?

It entirely depends on the context.

The simple answer is that my favorite country is where my employment and loved ones are, the USA.

For travel, Probably Spain. I've always felt that the mix of relaxation and adventure is perfect there. I've always loved southern Chile, but it's a bit too rural to feel entirely comfortable. There's always this awareness of how much trouble I'd be in if I screwed anything up.
