There was a thread about this a while back! uk.yahoo.com/news/chinese-buy-80-000-vomit-smelling-thai-durian-121700690.html
I was working in South America when I was 23 y.o. I spent eleven months there and it was a blast. Venezuela, Colombia, Chile, Brazil and Argentina.
I showed the video clips to my other half. She found them pretty funny. All in all an enjoyable thread @bigmac
Its the one continent ( apart from antartica ) I have not been to. Its quite progressive as well in some aspects such as LGBT rights, something that catholic countries seem to excel at despite the vatican.
Canada or Thailand,thailand for the weather and food,Canada for the wilderness and vastness of the country,I flew with a friend over parts of Quebec last year in a 1930's Bi-plane and the scenery is off the scale,very cold winters (I was there 2 years back when it was -41) and great summers
