Are you waiting for a travel destination without wearing a mask? For almost 1 and a half years, we have been in a room or a house and fighting with corona. Frustration, depression, and hopelessness are like our day-to-day routine, and wearing a mask is mandatory after taking a step from home. It is necessary, and you have to follow the guidelines.
But sometimes we feel life can be back to the previous situation where we are not used to wearing masks and travelling freely. It is difficult to find a country free of coronavirus because almost every country is fighting the pandemic. Although there are very few countries where COVID-19 patients are low or nil, almost every citizen is vaccinated, so the government reduces the guidelines to wear masks.
Here, I include some countries to travel to without masks and their best tourist places and
expanses. Let’s go through the detailed article.
