How often do you travel by plane? Which countries would you like to visit?
1. Long time ago I didn't travel by plane or another vehical, Due to the impact of the covid-19 pandemic for a long time of 2 years, from 2020 to now.
2. If Impact of covid-19 pandemic increase, I would like to visit Singapore. Because Singapore near my country (I come from VietNam) and I think Singapore is a beautiful country.

I would like to visit Bali, a very popular destination, but still very attractive for me. I travel by plane twice a year or something.

How often do you travel by plane? Which countries would you like to visit?
I'd like to travel by plane, I really enjoy it, but the planes in my country are old and they aren't safe, so I rarely travel by plane. I'd like to visit the U.S.A as well as visit Europe.
