Annecy, France. Super clean beautiful lake surrounded by mountains, warm enough to comfortably swim in in July and August. French food. 45 minutes from a major airport. 90 minutes from the heart of the French Alps. And yet I have met very few Americans or even Brits who have ever heard of it.

Amsterdam got me also. These popular places that half of the people you know rave about? Can't really be under-rated. Gotta be someplace not many people talk much about, or a place that is mostly thought of as bad or dangerous, etc, but you like for xyz reason

Mexico is an amazing country, full of history, culture, and great people. I love Mexico City, can't wait to go back.

Is it still all those things? I haven’t been back since the early 90’s.

Heard that it’s been overrun by expats and lost a lot of its charm.

Mexico City is amazing, one of my favorite places in the world. Such good food, vibrant culture, and tons to do. I don’t think it’s underrated though - people seem to (of course!) love it.

It’s lovely, but it’s pretty famous! Definitely recommend though
