Why Iceland?
If it was me (personally) I would pick Egypt
I can't get enough of it. The people are so friendly. You pretty much can't get into trouble there - I forgot my camera equipment in a hotel lobby one time and it was still in the same spot 12 hours later untouched. Nobody even locks their cars.
I just rent a car and bring my backpacking equipment and just wing it every time. Aside from Reykjavik 101 the entire country is just amazing. I Iove not having an itinerary and just planning my adventure as the weather permits since that changes daily.
If you get a 4x4 you can travel via F roads (aka fucked up roads) and completely avoid the tourist crowd. Offroading in thorsmork in particular is just the most glorious thing a guy can do.

Brazil: I am from here
Argentina (Buenos Aires): for a week when I was like 7, so I don't remember it very well, but it was alright. It was the first time I'd ever felt temperatures lower than 10°C outside.
Never been to any country other than those. Traveling by plane is expensive and I don't live near the Argentinian or Uruguayan border (I'm fairly sure they can be traveled between freely since they're also in Mercosul)
Edit: also, I don't speak any Spanish and mutual intelligibility isn't very reliable
All in all, seven. Mostly for holidays or installation jobs. I like Ireland, the Netherlands and the UK.
Sadly one. It's my own, and it's one that I wanna get out of so bad.
And tourists LIKE this place?? I mean, good for them, but I just don't see how. Some have even moved here.
And no, it's not Japan. It's actually its polar opposite (not literally). If Japan is known as the "land of the rising sun", my country is the land of the setting sun. It would make more sense before the discovery of the New World.
Give up? It's Morocco.
id like to travel it still
