@@JamalW239 I disagree. Photos/videos cannot bring justice to the beauty of nature. So color grading attempts to bring that same sense of wonder and beauty that is felt while at the location.

I visited Ireland in 2016 from Canada and I loved Galway! You have to go to the Cliffs of Moher if you ever make it there. Killarney and Killarney National Park were also some favorites.
CerealKiller 65 yes, Slovenia is so fresh, clean and beautifully full of nature. Seemed like the freshest air I breathed along the road that follows a roaring blue river.
I love how in documentaries and travel shows, they always display the “sunny”, “bright” scenery and weather and we think of that as pretty or majestic. But from this video we see that rainy weather or misty or dark weather is actually very beautiful too. Just because it doesn’t show on my iPhone camera, it still looks good on my retina.
I think it's very creepy the way he fakes his voice. You can hear his normal voice in a clip from the train, where he doesn't bother to sound like a feminine robot. This narration is just creepy, because it is so obvious his tone and speed is not natural but forced for the naration. Just my opinnion, but I think most people notice if somebody is talking naturally or not...
Wow, didn't expect to see Leuven in this top destinations. I never considerd it as a 'travel destination' since its so closeby but you changed my view on it. Definetaly going there this weekend!
As someone who lives near Leuven, who has grown up going there and now studies at the university and who loves the city, it is amazing to hear you, a guy whose videos I love and admire, talk about it in this way. Thank you very much for this. It truly warms my heart.
I went to southern Utah for the first time earlier this year and honestly I’ve never been so blown away. I love Europe and Asia but there’s something about the beauty in my own easily accessible back yard. Stoked it made this list😂
I was so thrilled to see you recognize Taiwan as such an amazing place. My first trip to Taiwan was in 2018 and I loved it so much I decided to move here and have been living here for 8 months now. I feel like Taiwan hardly ever gets recognized as the amazing place it is. So it warmed my heart to see you mention it, and I really think you did it justice in what you said about it.
I am studying in KU Leuven and I am so glad to see somebody said that for the first time on social media. I learned Dutch and now studying in Dutch and my main reason is just Leuven :)
Me and my brother Bobby traveled to southern Utah before he died and it’ll forever be one of the greatest experiences of my life. Not only was it beautiful nature, it was the last experience of life I had with my older brother. You started speaking about southern Utah and teared me up, these are happy tears because it took me back to a time in my life where I had an amazing experience with one of the most important people in my life. Helps me realize how much of a blessing Bobby was to have as an older brother. With all that said, life is still very much a blessing! I hope I’m making my brother proud, my love for him is infinite.. Thank you for your work Johnny, your videos are incredible!
sometimes i personally think Vox doesnt deserve you, everything you do is just so good and really distances itself from the other stuff at Vox in therms of quality, enjoyability, peacefulness and greatness. Keep going man
As a local from Porto, I was crossing my fingers you would list Portugal, and was not disappointed! I love Porto too, it's super chill, has great people and food and you have the beauty of the river and the Atlantic ocean at the same time which you don't find in many places. Love your channel and your work Johnny! And come back! Portugal loves you too! xx
Dude i was so stoked when you mentioned the Jungfrau region in Switzerland. I based my entire trip over there recently with your family's iterinary ( Iz's video ) . I was surprised cuz u mentioned 5 places lol.
During a global pandemic quarantine, I'm so glad to find this video, my favorite story teller listing my beloved home country, Taiwan, among his favorite places on Earth. It's been three years since I left, and I almost forgot how much I miss it, until watching this and Iz's four videos. Thank you, Johnny and Iz. I am still looking forward to the day you do a Borders video on Taiwan, by the way. Go to Kinmen, the ambiguous twilight zone, the ultimate limbo among Republic of China, Taiwan, and People's Republic of China. Go and figure out why I put three names in that sentence.
Hey man I love your videos. Your my favourite UA-camr . You should really visit Queenstown New Zealand!! I live their at the moment and it is stunning 😍
I was never a map fanatic. But after I started watching your videos, I find myself, sometimes staring at the map. And i realised how wonderfully complex borders of different countries.
As a Swiss it makes me happy to see the Jungfrau region on your list. It‘s truly wonderful there, whenever friends visit I try to take them there (even if only to pass by Interlaken). The places along the way to the Jungfraujoch (Wengen, etc) are great. On my travels I‘ve been extremely entranced by Japan (both city and nature) as well as Scotland and Ireland, these two especially for their nature. I love seeing yours (and Iz‘s) (travel) videos. Just watched her NYC one and it already gave me ideas for my next trip there. Keep up the amazing work, Johnny! (And you too, Iz!)
"oh, Iceland's cool" Another great entry, Johnny. What a format. I can't help but lean in listening to you. Great teacher and storyteller, you definitely are.
I'm currently living in Utah, and while I have a burning desire to visit many other parts of the world, it is so nice to be able to go on frequent adventures and be reminded that some of Earth's most incredible features in my backyard. I've been here two years and I keep discovering new things.
I just stumbled on this video on 2020. I've been to Iceland in January this year. It is the most beautiful, magical, unforgettable place I've ever visited. I am the least emotional person on this planet and the scenery literally brought tears to my eyes.
Come to northern Pakistan! You would love it. It's not as popular yet, not that great of infrastructure. But the government is trying to improve tourism. So things are getting better. Anyways, the nature is beautiful, at par with Switzerland, with lush green valleys and deep blue lakes, and friendly locals and warm tea:)
It’s Porto in Portuguese as well (not Oporto) 😂 Thanks for the shoutout! Btw, I’m not sure you visited the Vineyards way up the river in the Douro region, but you definitely should 🙌
It was the British that added the O. It's so weird. In America, we say Porto too. And it's pronounced "portu" not "portoh". I went to Portugal every summer in the 80s and 90s to visit my grandparents. (Mangualde and Mealhada) but I've never been to Porto. So sad. It looks so nice and I haven't been to Portugal since 2002.
@@JayRolo Yeah exactly, we generally pronounce it like "portu". Although people from Porto themselves usually pronounce it somewhat like "puortu" because of their characteristic accent (I hope I'm not offending anyone by trying to transcript their accent hehe). What a shame that you didn't get to visit Porto. Mealhada is not that far away from it.
In 2019 I traveled outside of the US for the first time in my life at 40 years old. Sofia BG three times, Paris, Amsterdam twice, Munich, Warsaw.... I miss traveling so much.
Vox border series and now your own channel. Amazing content! I really like your storytelling and video (editing/shots) I'm kinda hooked to your content.
Did not expect to see you went to Leuven... I've even studied in the Arenberg Castle for one year! Really cool to see you appreciate the place so much.
Before I even hit play, I said “he better have Switzerland 🇨🇭 on there”... was so disappointed once you got the top 5 called out. Then impressed, you saved the (my) best for last! Another pro travel money saving tip: sign up, train for, and run the Jungfrau Marathon! It’s so beautiful and you get free Swiss train tickets travel to and from the area, as well as the day of the marathon! 👍😉
Actually we in Portugal call it Porto, it's just weird for us seeing an O precede it. This probably came about because when referring to the city sometimes we say "o Porto" (the port) and some languages just took the THE and merged with the PORTO name. Anyway, I'm just glad you liked the city I was born in. Next time you are in Portugal, go a bit north to Braga, it's smaller but has a lot of history, also even though I'm biased, there's no better place to eat in Portugal.

Your appreciation for life and your curiosity is so inspiring man, seriously. I've been trying to catch up on your videos and I want to travel but I don't know where to start could you give some advice pls?
Have been binging on your channel Johnny... brilliant!! Also watching your wife, Iz’s channel, this is what UA-cam is ahh about. Quality clips!! You need to come to New Zealand. Spend a couple months travelling all over, and you’ll see so many of the best in other countries all here. Sounds, glaciers, ski fields in south, tropical rainforests and bush in middle, deserts in central north island, warm beaches in far north. Each time I travel I am so thankful I can NZ my home. ASIDE: I also have ADHD, dyslexia... know of a few that have our combination, seems they often go together.
I've been coming to the Jungfrau region since I was 7 years old. Always stayed in a cute small hotel in Beatenberg, hotel Gloria. Thank you so much for these great images of the area!
I did my bachelors in Leuven, had such a great time there. The general vibe like you said is just perfect. I cycled every day passed the Arendberg castle you showed to my faculty. Such a blessing and that was only one of many amazing sites (other fave is a run around the Van Park abbey)
After a couple years of watching amazing videos on this channel, I decided to check the dozen of first ones I didn't see. And I am seeing the castle that I work next to. WHAT.
As a young Swiss person there are lots of things I don't like about my country as it is rather 'provincial' but one thing I always miss when I travel abroad is the public transport. Swiss public transport is perfect and I have yet to find a country that does it better than we do!
I went to Leuven for a week with a study abroad program. It was my favorite place that I went to over 8 weeks of traveling Europe. Really enjoy that you agree.
Watching the intro and just remembered you came to Taiwan this year... Hoping to see Taiwan at least mentioned with little expectation... Video zooms straight in on Taiwan... “Number one is Taiwan...” Big smile on my face. Glad you enjoyed visiting here 😭
Hope you come to back to Norway someday and see the western and northern parts. The best thing about traveling in Norway is that it's so beautiful wherever you go. When heading towards a destionation one will always find some amazing nature and places, sometimes better than your initial destiantion. Here are some of the best sights i'we been to: The Atlantic Ocean Road, Innerdalen, Geiranger, Hardange, Lovatnet, Helgelandskysten, Saltstraumen, Mjelle, and Lofoten Cities: Bergen, Ålesund, Kristiansund, Røros, Trondheim, Henningsvær and Tromsø.
Porto was one of the best places I visited in 2019, Lisbon was nice, but Porto was just so special. We stayed in an airbnb owned by a guy who also owned the bakery beneath us. It was a fantastic experience
I am from Leuven, it's the main city in Belgium where most of the students are. You should go out on Thursday evening in Leuven on the: Oude Markt. It's a square where all the clubs are
You MUST VISIT BALI! It's super amazing! So Unique. You can enjoy the sunrise(or sunset) at the misty calm, fresh air of Ubud green mouintains, enjoying cup of tea or coffee also the magical ricefields you must visit (best visit when sunrise) or go on adventure for waterfall. Or those beautiful sunset (or sunrise) at the beach facing the endless Indian Ocean. Surfing, enjoying seafood and so on. And what makes Bali different from the other places (like Hawaii, maldives, etc.) is the PEOPLE. They have unique culture that you can't find anywhere else in the world. The traditional Bali Hindunese (which get along with nature) along with the modern urban life, they are SO HUMBLE. The food, dance, music, everything just amazing. Bali is one of INDONESIA's more than 17.000 islands. And INDONESIA is home to hundreds of ethnic and culture (food, dance, music, etc.), various nature topology (mountains, forest, sea) YOU MUST EXPLORE (can never fully exploring it all, just too much to explore). Cheers!
I actually live in switzerland and I have been to the Jungfrau region many times, I recommend going to Zermatt during October and November. I agree with this list
Wait, as a person who grew up in Leuven I was like actually so surprised when i heard you say is. And btw the "castle" you stumbled upon is called Kasteel Van Arenberg, it is indeed beautiful
Utah is a really beautiful place to visit. It just feels so different and otherworldly and you don't have to go to any of the big national parks to experience that. Great scenery is often just a short drive away.
Wow wow wow wow!!!!!!! So so so glad you loved Portugal 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 You still have so much to see. The islands of Madeira and Açores. And in mainland Portugal: Up north: Gerês In the middle: Arrábida In the South but not Algarve: The coast of Alentejo: Porto Covo; Ilha do Pessegueiro; Samouqueira 😍
I did a hiking trip in the jungfrau region in july 2016. It felt mostly empty on the trails and in most of the towns. Everywhere but the train to the top of Europe and laterbrunen was devoid of tourists. My only complaint was the constant sound of helicopters from sun up to sun down. Other than that i woke up everyday at 5 am so I didn’t miss a second of sunlight it was so beautiful!

Been to Galway, Ireland Johnny? Your description of Leuven sounded a lot how I describe my hometown.
Im sad that he didnt see this

Yes! A very very very apt one for documentaries and videos in general. Love it. 😁💟

Discovered yours and Iz's channel through the Switzerland vid. It solidified the fact I have to go soon and I cant waiit
Try Romania in general. More specifically the mountain sides. And even more specifically, Transfagarasan road. It's just mystical.
After a couple years of watching amazing videos on this channel, I decided to check the dozen of first ones I didn't see.
And I am seeing the castle that I work next to.
WHAT.
I want more!! Your music, footage, and stories are so powerful and inspiring
Absolutely love the drone shots in this video😍😍
As a young Swiss person there are lots of things I don't like about my country as it is rather 'provincial' but one thing I always miss when I travel abroad is the public transport. Swiss public transport is perfect and I have yet to find a country that does it better than we do!
Just awesome. Have you been to South Island, New Zealand?
And oh. You got to go to Socotra, Yemen.. whenever things get better there :(
Man I love your style of storytelling and editing.
I believe the "Junfrau Region" is offically called the Berner Alpen or the Bernese Alps. Excellent cinematography, of course. Very nicely filmed.
I went to Leuven for a week with a study abroad program. It was my favorite place that I went to over 8 weeks of traveling Europe. Really enjoy that you agree.
Watching the intro and just remembered you came to Taiwan this year...
Hoping to see Taiwan at least mentioned with little expectation...
Video zooms straight in on Taiwan...
“Number one is Taiwan...”
Big smile on my face.
Glad you enjoyed visiting here 😭
In Portuguese is Porto! I wasn't expecting Portugal to be here!! 🥰🥰🥰 (I'm from Lisbon but the north of Portugal is awesome!)
Hope you come to back to Norway someday and see the western and northern parts. The best thing about traveling in Norway is that it's so beautiful wherever you go. When
heading towards a destionation one will always find some amazing nature and places, sometimes better than your initial destiantion.
Here are some of the best sights i'we been to: The Atlantic Ocean Road, Innerdalen, Geiranger, Hardange, Lovatnet, Helgelandskysten, Saltstraumen, Mjelle, and Lofoten
Cities: Bergen, Ålesund, Kristiansund, Røros, Trondheim, Henningsvær and Tromsø.
Porto was one of the best places I visited in 2019, Lisbon was nice, but Porto was just so special. We stayed in an airbnb owned by a guy who also owned the bakery beneath us. It was a fantastic experience
I am from Leuven, it's the main city in Belgium where most of the students are. You should go out on Thursday evening in Leuven on the: Oude Markt. It's a square where all the clubs are
When you come from Porto and you live in Switzerland 🙂🤗
Your #1 Fan from Taiwan, love your videos. hope you do a boarder series about Taiwan someday!
Another beautiful video. Haven't been to any of those places yet, but are keen to check them out!
You MUST VISIT BALI! It's super amazing! So Unique. You can enjoy the sunrise(or sunset) at the misty calm, fresh air of Ubud green mouintains, enjoying cup of tea or coffee also the magical ricefields you must visit (best visit when sunrise) or go on adventure for waterfall. Or those beautiful sunset (or sunrise) at the beach facing the endless Indian Ocean. Surfing, enjoying seafood and so on. And what makes Bali different from the other places (like Hawaii, maldives, etc.) is the PEOPLE. They have unique culture that you can't find anywhere else in the world. The traditional Bali Hindunese (which get along with nature) along with the modern urban life, they are SO HUMBLE. The food, dance, music, everything just amazing. Bali is one of INDONESIA's more than 17.000 islands. And INDONESIA is home to hundreds of ethnic and culture (food, dance, music, etc.), various nature topology (mountains, forest, sea) YOU MUST EXPLORE (can never fully exploring it all, just too much to explore). Cheers!
Leuven is amazing, just went their last January!!
As a super fan of your always amazing video and work, just super stoked to see you put Taiwan on the list :)
I actually live in switzerland and I have been to the Jungfrau region many times, I recommend going to Zermatt during October and November. I agree with this list
Wait, as a person who grew up in Leuven I was like actually so surprised when i heard you say is. And btw the "castle" you stumbled upon is called Kasteel Van Arenberg, it is indeed beautiful
Portugal is the bomb, I was there this summer. since my father is from there I got to see it in such a different way!
Don't go there
"But the tickets are so cheap" 😂
Utah is a really beautiful place to visit. It just feels so different and otherworldly and you don't have to go to any of the big national parks to experience that. Great scenery is often just a short drive away.
Wow wow wow wow!!!!!!!
So so so glad you loved Portugal 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
You still have so much to see.
The islands of Madeira and Açores.
And in mainland Portugal:
Up north: Gerês
In the middle: Arrábida
In the South but not Algarve: The coast of Alentejo: Porto Covo; Ilha do Pessegueiro; Samouqueira 😍
You're an inspiration man, your videos just make me happy.
I did a hiking trip in the jungfrau region in july 2016. It felt mostly empty on the trails and in most of the towns. Everywhere but the train to the top of Europe and laterbrunen was devoid of tourists. My only complaint was the constant sound of helicopters from sun up to sun down. Other than that i woke up everyday at 5 am so I didn’t miss a second of sunlight it was so beautiful!
