  • Least desirable holiday destinations

    Read a story in my morning paper about the threat level to travellers in different countries following recent events that we're all too familiar with, i.e. terror, disease and violent criminal activity.

    Very few white spots on the world map outside the traditional "Western world"...

    So in terms of personal safety, which country would you want to visit the least at the moment? I've given some choices in the poll, but the list is not exhaustive, I'm afraid.

    i'd love to go to any one of those places.

        Yes connor, Chiquitania should be taken as a substitute for the banana option.

                  I would prefer to go to all of those places than to go to the USA or England.

                      I can understand that. Every Australian visiting England ends up working behind a bar there for the rest of their life, despite their efforts to resist. It's like moths and lightbulbs, only with beer.

                        DR Congo. By far the suckiest place. There's an equivalent to WW1 going on there.

                            Ditto, though I would place it someplace between WWI and Hell.
