I live in Algeria, the biggest country in Africa. In Algeria the distance between a city in the North and another city in the south is much more tall than the distance between Algeria's north and France, so for far destinations in Algeria, I usually take a plane.
In the last summer, I visited Tunisia, using my own car.
In Autumn, 2019, I traveled to Croatia, by plane. It was an amazing excursion.
I'm the kind of person who likes to travel around the world. but there are lots of circumstances, like visa requirements for some countries, and airplane tickets being expensive.
Countries of North America and East Asia are definitely worth visiting.

Actually, I didn't travel by plane ever. If I have a chance, I'll visit Ha Noi City in Vietnam. Because It's my motherland, I want to explore there so much.

I often travel by plane but usually on inside flights. I studying at university in not my hometown. And I have to travel by plane because there is too large distance away from my current city to hometown. I would like visit plenty of countries. These are mostly europeans countries like Italy, France, Spain, UK and others. However also I want to travel to North America and Asian countries especially Japan and South Korea.

I have traveled to Hue and Phu Quoc Island by plane two times in 2023. Next year, if I had a Visa 500 of Australia, I would like to visit Adelaide city. Because my young brother is studying and living here that is the reason I want to come to this city, and I am really fond of studying abroad in this city too.

I travel too often by plane. I travel mostly within my country for vacations and work. I haven't gotten a chance to travel to a different country yet if I want to visit the country then definitely the US would be the first because I want to visit Los Angeles.
