Top 5 Attractive Countries of the World

Have you ever traveled to certain countries that you just couldn’t help but notice how attractive the people were? Or do you have an attraction for certain features that are relative to certain countries? I mean, you have to notice that some countries are pretty much stereotyped for having hot people, right? Otherwise people wouldn’t have a “thing” for certain “types”.

I’ve personally been to 31 countries, but my taste in attractiveness is about as unpredictable as the weather in Florida, so I went ahead and asked some other well traveled people their opinions as well. If you really think about it, there is the attractiveness of features, personality, and overall looks, but then there’s also the attractiveness of culture, which adds an entirely new perspective to the laws of attraction.

So without further ado, I bring to you, the top five attractive countries in the world! (Not ranked in any particular order!)

1. CUBA

I’m not just giving Cuba the number one spot out of all of the most attractive countries because I’m Cuban myself, but I seriously could not help but notice that every guy I saw there was pretty much straight out of a Telanovela! They were a bit thinner…and shorter…but I swear, those scruffy chiseled jaws and smoldering eyes were literally EVERYWHERE! Plus the hottness of Havana easily adds on to the overall appeal of Cuba.

I was a little confused about where all of the pretty women were hiding though. I really thought I was going to see some Tropicana-esque models in Cuba, or at least some women as stunning as my ancestors (*wink face*), but I didn’t see very many, and I’m not the only one who will say that! In fact, when I was in Cuba writing the editorial for Geo Chic Magazine, we had to extend the photo shoot casting days because the photographer and editor-in-chief couldn’t find models they liked!

2. ITALY

Gloria from TheBlogAbroad.com gives the next country with the most attractive people, and I couldn’t agree more, it’s Italy!

“When it comes to traveling, there’s no doubt that it’s hard not to notice the uniquely beautiful features of the people in the region you’re in. Whether it’s the tall-natured men of Holland or the stoic nature of Germans, there’s something that gets you hot and bothered about just being in their mere presence.

I have to say while I could easily nominate half the world for this category, I must give the hottest men award to my boys over in Italy.

Their perfectly tanned skin, mesmerizing brown eyes, full mane of hair, and delicate, yet dominating tone and Italian accent make them God’s greatest gift to the world and the reason why I need to make a trip back over sooner than later.

I’m not sure how, but an Italian man went from helping my directionally-challenged self find the metro for a futbol game to inviting himself to the game with me, treating me to dinner, and giving me a tour and again treating me to brunch the following afternoon.

Excuse me, sir… but did we get married at some point? Why are you laying down your life for me? Exaggeration. But still, Italians are the epitome of boyfriend goals. God bless ’em.”

3. USA

Top 5 Attractive Countries in the World
Is it cocky to use a picture of my friends to rep the USA’s attractiveness?

Nina is a good friend of mine who I actually met on a Eurotrip in 2008, who ended up becoming a travel blogger too (WhereintheWorldisNina.com) and is currently living in Thailand. Here’s what she had to say about her country of choice for most attractive men:

“Only one country, Alyssa?! Psh, yeah right. A country with the hottest people, and of course, for me, MEN, can not be limited to one. I think foreign in sexy. Period. But ironically enough, I’d have to pick the USA (despite the fact I’m from there). Why? Here’s where I undo the irony, it’s because we’re so diverse. Who the F is American anyway? Pretty much nobody anymore. So many people in the USA are a damn sexy mutt.

I’m a mix of Israeli, Bulgarian, and Italian myself, not to say that I’m super sexy, but I know I don’t necessarily look the like average Jane, which is what I find attractive in a man – a mixed look. The USA has a lot of sexy men, buuuttt… I’d have to add the majority of Latin American countries to my list too.

Not only because I have a thing for men speaking Spanish (*melt*) but because they are damn hot. Hello, where are you looking? Is there even an argument with their perfectly tanned skin and luscious dark hair?

Uh, no. Oh, and I think many European countries would be on my smokin’ hot list too, like France, but it’s because they get like 100 points for having the sexiest language and accent in the galaxy.

OK, sorry, Alyssa. I don’t listen to directions very well! I just named three continents. I got problems. I love men. Yum!”

About Nina:
Nina, besides being a bit boy crazy, is an intrepid little gypsy who traverses her way around the world as she works online/abroad to support this adventurous addiction of hers. She’s currently living the hippy mountain life in Pai, Thailand, soon to travel around a bit more of Southeast Asia before moving to Australia. Try and keep up with her on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram.

4. GERMANY

Top 5 Attractive Countries in the World
Hot dudes dancing on bars instead of women? Hell yes.

I must admit. I was not expecting the most attractive guys in Europe to be in Germany, but to this day I will definitely vouch for them after seeing them dance on the bar at Salsalito’s in Munich. Yes. You heard me correctly. There were sexy men dancing on a bar at a tequila bar in Germany. OH, and did I mention they were shirtless and all sporting a tanned and toned six pack?

But that wasn’t the only place attractive Germans were spotted. The famous Haufbrauhaus in Munich had several tables of attractive men drinking their pints of beers, and even a few futbol teams which were of course, all cute as well.

5. SPAIN

Top 5 Attractive Countries in the World
Why yes, I would love for you to mix my mojito, señor.

I mean, duh. What isn’t attractive about Spain? If you don’t picture a sexy matador or that little emoji chick in the red dress when you think of Spain…there might be something wrong with you. Just kidding. You’re probably thinking about the amazing atmosphere, food, or culture instead. Everything about Spain is sexy, which is why it automatically gets a spot on the list of most attractive countries!

  • When he suspiciously asks why I didn’t answer the phone all day and I was literally scaling a mountain in Kosovo with my adventure bestie. 🧗‍♀️ 😁

I had no idea we were doing a Via Ferrata on our first day of the girls’ trip, and was actually scared, but it ended up being really fun!

  • Orca swimming in La Ventana, Mexico has been SUSPENDED indefinitely, but there’s more to it than you might think, so keep reading, or comment “orcas” and I’ll send you the full information about the update, future prospects, and these Sea Safari tours in general.

I know some people will automatically blame influencers for posting about swimming with orcas here (we’re used to it), but please keep in mind that many of us were posting the rules and regulations and urging people to be responsible and also that there was never an official “orca tour”, it’s always been a general Sea Safari, and seeing an orca is never guaranteed or promised.

Anyway, before the 1 year trial, there was allegedly complete chaos, with over 35 boats chasing pods and no regulations about how many boats can be near them at a time or how many swimmers and how long they could be in the water.

The trial period enforced those rules, limiting the number of boats and swimmers and how long each boat can be near the orcas. Many people listened, many did not. So that is now what the authorities are evaluating, to determine if they will continue to allow it or permanently ban it.

All of my posts had clear disclaimers about the rules and how to be a responsible traveler here, and I purposely required that people personally email me for info about the tour to make sure they understood the rules, including that there is no “orca tour” but most people still  specifically asked for that. 

In my opinion, after doing this experience, I don’t really think just anyone should be able to do it or run the tours…so many people just don’t listen or respect rules, and it is dangerous for the animals and themselves.

If they do allow it in the future I think it should be mandatory that a certified marine biologist is onboard most boats, that boats and captains have specific training and certifications, and that tourists have to pay an addition environmental fee so the gov can hire more people to monitor and enforce regulations. Also a smaller amount of spots allowed per day.

I don’t think observing orcas should be completely banned, otherwise people will just continue to go see them
  • Ferragosto is one of the biggest holidays in Italy, every year on August 15th! So definitely don’t come here that day unless you want to experience local celebrations in the form of beach or boat days, and massive feasts with lots of wine! 

Many people celebrate with family at home or at restaurants, so make reservations in advance, and wear your feast-fit 😮‍💨😬

Same applies for boat trip reservations and the beaches that require permits in advance!

This is my 3rd summer living in Sardinia and I put all the tips on my Sardinia Travel Guide on my website! Just comment “Sardinia” and I’ll send it to you!

((Transparency — I actually don’t recommend coming here in August at all because it’s the most hot and crowded month, but if that’s your vibe, you’ll love Ferragosto!))

Have you heard of this famous Italian holiday? Can you name any of the dishes in the vid? 😁

  • You cannot go within 15 feet of animals in Antarctica. But if THEY come up to you…well…what can you do?? 😬

I’ve been to Antarctica 4 times and this was a rare occasion when a penguin suddenly waddle-ran right up to me! It took a lot of willpower not to try and bend down to get closer, but I knew to just stay still and let it observe until it walked away!

Other animals you can see in Antarctica are humpbacks, leopard seals, and Orcas!

LMK if you have any questions about Antarctica!

  • My therapist said I’m a workaholic with ADHD and to find a hobby where I can’t use my phone or laptop that will also keep me captivated for hours, so behold! My new hobby of shark diving! 🦈💖

Unlike regular diving, snorkeling, or swimming, you must always be highly alert, ready to respond, and on the go if you want to try to keep up with them! 

The ultimate workaholic-ADHD-adventurer’s dream hobby, do you agree?

[DISCLAIMER] Yes sharks can be dangerous, but only when provoked or taunted with food. I have extensive experience around sharks and apex predators, and a degree in animal science, all of which I use to promote positive awareness and protection for sharks and other misunderstood animals! 

Happy Shark Week!

  • Before the term “influencer” or “content creator” existed, I was one of the original travel bloggers, unknowingly helping pioneer what is now a multibillion dollar Creator Industry.

I helped transform solo female travel from taboo to trendy, and taught thousands of people how to work remotely and build a brand.

I’ve done so much more than just create content, although hardly anyone sees the behind the scenes. And it’s been 14 years that I’ve owned the title of travel bloggers/influencer so…

Allow me to re-introduce myself.

I am Alyssa Ramos, the founder of My Life’s a Travel Movie brand, one of the very first travel “influencers” and one of the pioneers of the creator industry, of normalizing solo female travel today, of influencer-hosted group trips, and of getting paid to travel via social media!

I started my blog in 2012, then started using social media to promote it in 2014, earning me the title of “influencer”but what was never fully seen was the entrepreneur behind it who helped create an entire new industry with no money and when hardly anyone believed it would work.

Soon after I became one of the first travel blogger/influencers to make a full time living from it, I was asked to speak at conferences, interviewed in the press, and I was one of the very first people to make the courses about how it’s done (they didn’t exist when I started!)

I had a big dream to get paid to travel the world, and to normalize solo female travel, and once I succeeded, I kept going.

Today I am not only a travel influencer, but also a humanitarian, animal activist, a trailblazer, an author, speaker, writer, entrepreneur and…one of the most experienced solo female travelers in the world.

So far I’ve been to over 150 countries (off the 197 list), all 7 continents (Antarctica 4x), and I average 20 countries per year.

Now I’m going bigger. I’m launching a travel show, more speaker events, writing another book, and I’ve started the Travel Tribe Foundation to give back through my group trips.

Thank you everyone who has been here with me for so long, and welcome to anyone new!

  • I thought I was going to shipwreck trying to get to an existing shipwreck in the Solomon Islands…and I was traveling solo with just a fisherman driving me on his small boat. 😳

But! We made it, even with a massive storm approaching, and I experienced one of the most incredible “my life’s a travel movie” moments in my 12 years of continuous solo traveling!!

I truly felt like I was in a movie! The ship is an old cruise ship that hit rocks and slowly sank as it washed ashore on Roderick’s Bay. It’s only half sunk, so you can swim around it (it’s super creepy and dangerous, don’t do it alone), and since it’s completely unregulated, you can also climb it and zip line into the water (also dangerous, can’t recommend)

The angle of the ship also created one of the most vibrant marine sanctuaries I’ve seen in a while, with lots of actual colorful coral and fish (including clown fish!)

I went to Solomon Islands after my second trip to Papua New Guinea, on my quest to slow solo travel to every country in the world.

Would I go back to the shipwreck? Probably not. That boat ride was terrifying. But I’d go back to see more of the islands in the Solomon’s, there’s so many!

Would you brave the ride to get to this shipwreck?

For any fellow extreme adventurers, my Solomon Islands travel tips and itinerary is on my website linked in bio!
