With all the fantastic landmarks it seems the US is a world itself when vacation time comes. From New York to California, there are numerous places in-between that can catch your eye. However, we recommend leaving America on your next vacation to experience what the rest of the world has to offer.
1. Barcelona, Spain
Barcelona has some of the most unique and inspiring architecture in the world, so a tour of the city's parks, museums and churches is a must. Start your day off with tours of Antoni Gaudí's whimsical architecture. Grab lunch at the bustling Boqueria Market then kick back and relax on the shores of La Barceloneta Beach with a cool beverage in hand, all the while enjoying a picturesque view of the Mediterranean. You must hit up the nightlife in Las Ramblas or the Gothic Quarter. And if you're a fútbol fan, you can't leave Barcelona without a visit to FC Barcelona's headquarters, Camp Nou Stadium.
2. Vancouver, BC
There are few places on Earth where you can ski, surf, be transported back in time over 5,000 years, watch a pod of Orcas frolic in the midst, or take a stroll through the world's best urban park, all in one day; Vancouver is that place. Camping and RV trailer rental Vancouver BC is extremely popular on Vancouver Island and there are RV parks and campgrounds that will suit every type of camper or RV. If you prefer a site along the ocean there are many private campgrounds, provincial and regional parks along the shoreline up and down the island but if you would like a quiet spot in the forest, nature sanctuary or in a community campground you will find plenty to choose from.
