I've been lucky to travel to a lot of the USA. With our Route 66 Road trip being one of my first introductions to the USA (apart from New York) I've now done 14 states. Ok that might not be as many as some - but having spoken with some American's who've not even left their county let alone their state, it's not probably a bad amount! However what are My Top 5 USA cities? There are many people from around the world who might only visit New York or perhaps Orlando with the theme parks. Whilst of course they are great and at least one of them might feature in this Top 5 there are so many other places that you as a visitor should be ticking off! Not…
Over the past couple of months, the way humans live, interact with others and go about their daily activities has experienced a definite change. This change has introduced concepts and measures that are here to stay.
