I prefered the developed Mandarin speaking areas, as i speak tooti phooti mandarin… :hinna:
Also, although i know they’re not a part of China ‘technically’, i preferred Hong Kong and Singapore…
Italy is one of my favourite places in the world… i go there at least once a year… total serenity…great scenery, natural beauty, great food, excellent atmosphere…
And also, i’ve been brainwashed into thinking that France is my favourite place in the world…courtesy of Mr Maroush…
