God Save America!



Blaine said 'The United States is the only country with a known birthday'. So as today is the 4th July (Independence day in America) I thought it would be appropriate to celebrate and recognise all the things that make the USA unique, awe-inspiring and must visit for all! If you hadn't noticed already it's a big country so there are a million amazing things that make it special, but here are some of my favourite! From chocolate bars to canyons, it's a diverse list but I think it shows how uniquely appealing America is. Happy 4th of July y'all!

1. The Grand Canyon - so amazingly vast and impressive - whether you choose to fly over it or drive by it, just do it!

2. Vegas - in any other country the place would have lasted 5 minutes, in America it gets more visitors every year. Why? Because it's Disney Land for grown ups.

3. Hershey's chocolate - people hate it or love it. I love it.

4. The Breakfasts - the Americans are best at breakfasts in the world in my opinion - personal favourite stacks of pancakes, maple syrup and bacon.

5. The contrast of iconic cities - New York, Miami, L.A, Boston, Chicago, Washington - how can one country have so many amazing cities?!

6. Sailing in Maine - such an amazing experience, you can learn to sail all while eating some of the best sea food.

7. Road tripping - one of the best countries to road trip in because there are so many places to visit and stop off and different routes to take. It feels like you are visiting loads of different countries in one.

8. Victoria's Secret - Underwear heaven. If it's good enough for Heidi Klum, it's good enough for me!

9. The Weather - America's got it all, year round sunshine of Hawaii, seasonal weather of New York and the breezy sunshine of California.

10. The Americans - people may put their noses up at the Americans but I think they are the kindest people and are especially welcoming and laid back. I always feel at home in America. Mostly though they are proud of their country, which is both rare and admirable.

I could go on forever, but instead of that choose a state and find out for yourself! HX
