India and China at the top of the list
Australia (not because of spiders but because I'm not sure I'd enjoy a trip which envolves so much nature and very long distances between cities)
South America
Some countries in the Eastern part of Europe (think of Bulgaria or the former USSR countries, even though I heard great things about Estonia)
Curious to know why people would skip Italy during an European trip!

Before I'd been to Italy I was a bit puzzled when travelers told me Italy was their favorite country in Europe. Once I'd been there (2 weeks barely scratched the surface) I could understand why Italy is such a favorite. Its regions are very different but I never ran across anyone who wasn't helpful and friendly. The history, the architecture, the art, the scenery, the shopping, the food--not a single thing I didn't love. And if I'm lucky I'll get to return for a more in-depth trip.
If you go, you'll understand why people love Italy.
LOL!!!!!! I'm sorry, but as an Aussie this is hilarious! If you come for a visit I think you would be lucky to see a 'dinner plate sized spider'. To be honest, I don't think I'VE ever seen one!
But then again, most Americans who haven't been to Australia think we are riding around the cities on the backs of kangaroos!?!?!

And a lot of people outside Europe think that Denmark is the capital of Sweden 😊
There are so many misunderstandings out there 😊

Everyone knows the capital of Sweden is Ikea.
And the capital of Denmark is Lego, isn't it?
(I kid, I kid. Two of my top five countries, ever)
I was lost (as usual), after arriving in Rome. I sat on a curb to check my map.
A butcher came running out of his shop, carrying a chair for me!
He explained that ladies don't sit on the street. Then, he helped me with directions.
It was one of the most touching experiences & so kind.
