Miaou Pop-a-911-ster 24,581 Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 « France is the world’s number one destination for international tourists, the most recent figures from the UNWTO show. Almost 90 million people visited the country in 2018. Spain isn’t far behind, with over 82 million visitors. The United States, China and Italy complete the top five. These countries are also among the hardest-hit by COVID-19, with the US, Italy, France and Spain (along with the United Kingdom and Brazil) to date recording the world’s highest number of confirmed coronavirus deaths. Lockdowns caused havoc in these economies – as they have in many others around the globe – and countries reliant on travel and tourism have seen “particularly large” disruptions, according to the International Monetary Fund. Of the top five most visited nations, Spain in particular will be feeling the heat in this respect – international tourists spend about $81 billion in the country annually. That’s over 16% of its total exports, while the same figure is under 10% for France and Italy. » https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2020/06/most-visited-countries-world-tourism-organization/ 1.

nynj nights Pronounsshe/her Popster to Popster 3,689 Posted January 4, 2021 Share Posted January 4, 2021 Looks pretty accurate to me! I was lucky to spend two months in Italy for a summer internship and had a blast! COVID aside I wish I could go back and experience 911 as a proper single!
