Voted number 37 by forbes, as the most beautiful country is...
๐คฉGreece๐คฉ
๐Fun facts๐
๐ฌ๐ท In ancient Greece beauty was different from today. A unibrow was considered a sign of both intelligence and beauty. Women who did not have one would actually connect the eyebrows by drawing a line with charcoal.
๐ฌ๐ท Grandmother's will spit on their grandchildren! For a long time Greeks have believed spitting on someone is a way of combating evil wether that be a presence or energy.
๐ฌ๐ท Easter is hugely celebrated in Greece however they have some different traditions then here in the UK. These include, salt, eggs and bread are all forbidden to leave your home after sundown. If someone knocks your door and asks for eggs you must invite them in and cook it for them. If you want to give your neighbours a doggie bag than these bags are to be left outside your door before the sun goes down.

๐คฉVenezuela๐คฉ
๐Fun Facts๐
๐ป๐ช In the middle of 2018, toilet paper cost 2.6 million Venezuelan Bolivars. This was only 40 cents when compared to American Dollars but it really makes you think.
๐ป๐ช Lake Maracaibo is known as the lightning capital of the world. With storm clouds forming as low as 1km from the lakes surface. This happens 140 nights a year and lasts up to 10 hours. I would not recommend swimming in this lake, however fishing would be very easy.
๐ป๐ช If you don't like the rats we have here in England then Venezuela is not the place for you. Having one of the largest rodents in the world called the Capybara growing up to 2 feet tall and weighing up to 50 kg l!
๐คฉNumber 40 is El Salvador๐คฉ

๐ธ๐ป It has one of the highest murder rates in the world so although a stunning and beautiful place to visit you would need to stay safe.
Number 41 on forbes top 50 most beautiful countries is ....
๐คฉMyanmar๐คฉ
๐Fun facts๐
๐ฒ๐ฒYou can eat tea! Tea leaves are fermented and eaten in the nations most beloved dish lahpet - tea leaf salad. A common saying is "Of all the fruit, the mangos the best; of all the meat, the pork is the best; and of all the leaves laphet's the best!"
๐ฒ๐ฒAt one point Myanmar run out of Burmese cats. Myanmar (formerly known as Burma) kept pure breed burmese cats as royal pets when the British took control the bloodlines were not protected and therefore pure breed Burmese cats had disappeared by the 1930's. The US are now helping to reintroduce them with the help of Inthar Heritage House.
๐ฒ๐ฒMyanmar is rumoured to have unicorns. No I haven't gone crazy this is true. Marco Polo was so taken with Myanmar and its beautiful landscapes and jungles he wrote about it in his diary during the 13th century. He wrote about gold and incredible animals such as Unicorns.

๐ฅฐNumber 42 is Uganda!!๐ฅฐ
๐Fun facts๐
๐บ๐ฌUganda has its own time. Where here in the UK our time zone is GMT Uganda's time zone is called Uganden time!
Ugandan time can range from an hour to 2 hours from the set time. So if the appointment is at 3 pm, and you take Ugandan time, that will be anywhere between 4 pm to 5 pm!
Shockingly on this same note, you might find everyone coming late because they thought the other person will show up late- and the magic, they all appear at the same โUgandan timeโ.
๐บ๐ฌUganda has upgraded its words for example now means one thing in English however in Ugandan it has been split into 3 meanings. These are:
Now: meaning something to be done in 2 hours or a couple of months
Just Now: something that needs to be done in 30 mins to 7 hours.
Now-Now: Something that has to be done right that second.
Don't know about anyone else but I love the sound of this
๐บ๐ฌYou don't wear a role you eat it. Yes that wasn't a typo in Uganda a Rolex is a meal and from what I have heard extremely yummy!

๐คฉNumber 43 on Fobes most beautiful countries is Iceland!๐คฉ
๐Fun facts๐
๐ฎ๐ธIcelandic Horses are never allowed back once they leave.๐ฎ๐ธ
This isn't as harsh as it sounds. Icelandic horses are known for their purity and hardiness. Having an Icelandic horse return increases the likely hood of infection.
๐ฎ๐ธThe Yule Lads๐ฎ๐ธ
Instead of one omnipotent Santa Claus, Icelandic kids have to contend with thirteen โYule Ladsโ who visit one by one on the thirteen days leading up to Christmas. Kids leave their shoes out on the window ledge and if they have been good, the shoe will be filled with sweets. If they have been bad, theyโll awake to a shoeful of rotten potatoes. The Yule Lads used to be a lot more terrifying, but in 1746 parents were officially banned from winding their children up with scary tales of monsters. Each Yule Lad has a distinct personality and proclivity, from stealing sausages to licking spoons and slamming doors to keep everyone awake.
๐ฎ๐ธNo TV on Thursdays and in July๐ฎ๐ธ
Until 1986, Iceland only had one TV channel, run by The Icelandic National Broadcasting Service. Before the INBS started broadcasting in 1966, we had "Kana-sjรณnvarpiรฐ" or "The American TV" from the American army base in Keflavรญk. When "The TV" (as our first TV channel was called) first aired, it only broadcast on Wednesdays and Saturdays. Gradually, it increased to every day of the week apart from Thursdays and everyone got a month off in July. It wasnโt until 1983, that โThe TVโ aired in July. Then, in October 1987, a year after Channel 2 was founded, the INBS started broadcasting on Thursdays as well.

๐คฉ Number 50 on the Most Beautiful countries voted by Forbes Travel Magazine was Sweden!๐คฉ
๐ Did you know! ๐
๐ธ๐ช The Swedish Passport is the best in the world. Having one allows you to enter 124 countries without a visa
๐ธ๐ช Swedes are terrified of badgers. It is said in Sweden that badgers will come and bite onto your arm or leg and won't let go until they hear a bone break. So they stuff their socks with Ryvita style crispbread so when badgers bite and hear the crunch they will think the bone was broken and that person can get away unharmed
๐ธ๐ช And I've saved the best to last. Every night at 10pm Swedish students open their windows and scream of angst. Why they do this us shrouded in mystery however it is now a tradition!!
