Welcome back to 'Which Country Should I Accidentally Move To?' Today, we're exploring the natural beauty of Japan and Malta.
Japan and Malta? One's a meticulously crafted garden, the other a sunbaked biscuit. Let's see if I can find something funny about rocks.
Malta is far more than a biscuit! It's a layered history and natural wonder. Let's start with Japan. Can you imagine those mountains?
Mount Fuji is iconic, practically a brand logo. But have you hiked it?
Not yet, but it's on my list. And it's not just Mount Fuji; there are the Japanese Alps, cherry blossoms reflected in lakes… a nature photographer's dream.
A dream? More like a logistical nightmare avoiding selfie sticks. Japan's landscapes are beautiful, but crowded. What about Malta? Does it even have mountains?
Malta doesn't have towering Alps, but it has dramatic cliffs plunging into the turquoise Mediterranean, hidden coves, and the Blue Grotto.
Luminous blue waters? Sounds like a marketing campaign. Still, I'll grant you those cliffs are dramatic.
Malta's coast is rugged and beautiful, with history etched into every rock. And it's not just the coast; there are rare ecosystems.
Rare ecosystems… lizards sunning themselves?
Malta has unique flora and fauna adapted to the island's environment, specific plants and animals found only there. There are also valleys and terraced vineyards.
Terraced vineyards… now you're talking. But Japan has snow monkeys in hot springs! Can Malta top that?
No, snow monkeys are uniquely Japanese. But Malta has Comino's Blue Lagoon, perfect for snorkeling and diving.
Snorkeling? I'm a "beach with a cocktail" kind of guy. But those lagoons…
Both Japan and Malta offer incredible natural experiences. They're different, but spectacular.
Japan has Zen gardens and bamboo forests. Malta has ancient temples overlooking the sea. It's a matter of preference. Viewers, mountain people or sea people? Vote below!
