From what I read on this sub, the focus seems to be in developing countries or Eastern Europe. Just curious as to why US/Canada isn't as popular as DN?

I get that it's more expensive but there are ways around it. I think the beauty and stuff to do in such country tops a lot of places!

Just being curious and would like to know your point of views, not trying to take away anything from other countries :)

 

We're two people, will mostly be camping/tenting and going to an occasional hotel every now and then. Focus will be on nature/national parks, but also cities, towns, and cabins every so often. Will mostly be cooking our food but go to restaurants every now and then.
Cost includes everything except car payment. Hoping to do $40-50 a day for two people!

Do you think this is doable?

 

I recently took a 4 month roadtrip around the US. The sights I saw were unbelievable and I've never said "wow" as much as in the US. My trip was concentrated in nature/national parks and wilderness and some places brought tears to my eyes.

I've been to the countries in question before but for a short time (2-4 days) and saw some main highlights but I was never wowed by anything to the same degree.

I constantly try to tell people how beautiful the US is but it's like nobody believes me and those other countries are always the popular countries when it comes to "beauty." People even say the natural beauty there BURY the natural beauty in the US and I just can't believe it! Heck even defending the US gets me downvoted.

Is there really a country with place more beautiful than the combined beauty of Glacier/going to the sun, Mt Rainier, the hikes in Washington, the oregon coast, Colorado, sequoia, fall in New England, the views in Alaska, scenic views of Blue ridge parkway, I can continue lol and I've only seen 10 States so far!
