It's a good sign of a growing tourism when people regularly visits a country for their special festivities. People sometimes make a reminder to book their flights and hotels earlier to avoid the festival rush.

I can't wait to visit Ukraine after our honeymoon in tanzania safari. Who doesn't love the infinite goodness brought by cheese and wine?
