I think every developing country should have its own inbound tourist association. Presenting our own natural beauties and tourist destinations is of utmost importance. If all of us would first meet our homeland and then go to other countries, every country in the world would be successful and well-developed.
I love the story you shared. Not only does it show how beautiful your country is, but it is also very inspirational and a kind of a guide to other bloggers and why not governments. 🙂
