If a tourist stops you on the street and asks you what is so special about your country... What would you say?

I don't know, I like my country but can't say what could make it attractive to someone else, I think this place is very calm, we have very very few "shakes" I mean, our climate is template, we don't have extreme situations like tormados or earthquakes, in fact we don't even have snow (this is not very good really but we don't have snow storms either), we here are a very small country so our "military" is in practical terms: useless, so much that here we don't even do military service, and politics come and go but without so much real troubles, at least for the past thirty years it wasn't any troble, so besides our economical situation that is not very good (REALLY not very good) we live peacefully here :P that's what _I think others may appreciate about my country. oh! and when the glaciars melt because of the global warming we're going to drown! ^^ just like Manhattan...

I would tell them about The best parts of Florida. In my town we have the Florida State Ravine Gardens. In other parts of Florida like Orlando there is Walt Disney World. The Magic Kingdom, EpcotCenter. In St. Augustine there are also alot of interesting and fun places and there is alot of history there also.

I went to Daytona for Spring break one year back in college. Didn't have a good experience. Because that year, on our way there we came upon a cold front/snow storm. So, it took us 48 hours for a 24 hour trip from Toronto, Canada. For the 4 days there, it just rained and cold. You could tell the Americans and the Canadians apart because all the Canadians were wearing shorts and T-shirts trying to get a tan when a little bit of sun came out of the clouds. A bunch of us actually bought sweatshirts to put on. So that was a bad experience.
