FAMILY FEATURES or many, traveling offers an opportunity to disconnect from the everyday and experience new places and cultures. With the beginning of a new decade, it is the perfect time to start deciding your Fnext travel adventures. When booking your future destinations, consider these spots and tips recommended by travel expert and Bank of America ambassador, Lee Abbamonte, the youngest American to visit every country plus the North and South Poles.

England, Germany, Scotland, Azerbaijan and more While technically more than one place, these locations have one thing in common: Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) Euro 2020. The international soccer event marks the first time the games will be held across the continent in 12 host cities. “The year is a big one for sports,” Abbamonte said. “From sporting events in Europe to Japan, it is a fun year for travel and to enjoy once-in-a-lifetime experiences.” Australia From its deserts to tropical beaches, Australia is a beautiful country to explore. While many people might be familiar with the Sydney Opera House and the unique wildlife, there are many hidden gems in Australia. “I’ve been to Australia 10 times and I still can’t get enough,” Abbamonte said. “One of my favorite cities is Melbourne. While it’s one of the largest cities in Australia, the heart of the city is hidden and secretive. It comes to life when you visit the alleys, laneways and arcades. The vibrant city has so much to offer: cafes, a unique street culture and street art.” New Zealand If you are going to New Zealand for the first time, Abbamonte recommends boogie boarding down the sand dunes, hiking up a volcano and visiting the Moeraki Boulders. However, if you are really interested in getting the blood pumping, take a leap from Nevis Bungy near Queenstown. It is among the highest bungy jumping experiences in the world, measuring 440 feet. Mexico “Mexico City has two of my favorite things – great food and sports,” Abbamonte said. “The street tacos are to die for, and I love going to soccer games at Estadio Azteca.” In 2020, there will be many festivals to explore. The city is a cultural hub with music, theater, dance and food events throughout the year. While experiencing the festivities, it is also an opportune time to take a step back and enjoy Chapultepec Park. Brazil One of Abbamonte’s favorite waterfalls is Iguazu Falls located on the border of Brazil and Argentina. While Iguazu Falls might be well known, the falls themselves are truly unique. The waterfall system consists of 275 falls that stretch over approximately 1.68 miles. The Devil’s Throat is the tallest fall with a drop of more than 262 feet. Melbourne Victoria, Australia

While traveling internationally can be fun and example, you can try bone marrow ice cream, exhilarating, there are also places throughout the stop by Mill Ends Park (the world’s smallest United States that offer memorable activities: park) or attach your wish to The Wishing Tree.

There are many trails to bars, parks – and I enjoy the people watching. explore in Camelback Mountain, Papago Park Portland has some of the nicest people while and Hole in the Rock. After hiking, follow maintaining an edgy vibe.” Abbamonte’s example and golf at The Short Course at Mountain Shadows.

Then you can take a break at Boston, Massachusetts Clearwater Beach, which is known for its soft, “I love sports, so I visit Boston regularly for the white sand and calm waters. professional games,” Abbamonte said. “I’m also fortunate that Boston is a beautiful city I can Santa Barbara, California enjoy along the way.” “I go to Santa Barbara when I want to recharge,” Boston is one of the oldest cities in the Abbamonte said. “I enjoy the food, walking country. Founded in 1630, Boston is filled with around, talking to the locals and even watching a history, museums and universities.
