    Anyone out there have a sweet tooth? If so, then I think I found the perfect country for you to visit... SYRIA!
    Never in my life have I seen more sugary treats that come in all shapes, sizes and tastes. I've tried the best pastries and ice cream in my life over the past several days in Damascus! I mean, the streets and markets are lined with candy shop after candy shop after candy shop -- and it's truly amazing!
    Who knew that SYRIA would be this SWEET? (see what I did there?) ;)

    I went to Syria last year. I lost 5kg before my trip and still came back fat! The food is amazing but the people even more so. After an afternoon of wandering around Damascus, I was almost doubled over with stomach cramps from too much coffee, which I couldn't / didn't have the heart to say no to. I think that I ended up drinking 7 cups! Everyone just wants you to stop and chat and there is no expectation to buy anything from them. The trip was eye-opening. I had planned to go back this year but I have no idea when that will be now :( Stay strong, Syria!

      kushal. n rajasuba I only visit there one every two years or so, the situation is comparable to Syria in the 1980s: electricity rationing (ie expect scheduled 2-6 hours of electricity blackout depending on where u live) and work is not easy to come by... and something new: currency vs. dollar is in free fall.
      Nevertheless people are adapting, and surviving and even in a few cases flourishing...
      but I am not strong enough to survive there so I chose to work outside the country. I will be forever thankful for my country for giving me a strong engineering degree for a couple of hundred dollars in government subsidized education which allowed me to work in oil and gas industry outside Syria. (Company founded by a Syrian-UK citizen).
      Surprisingly, the COVID-19 had little or effect on Syria.

      @@krisht1613 No, we currently are not taking oil from there. There are no commercial companies working for the U.S. operating in Syria to access oil. So.. no companies piping oil.. therefore no fault of America being there for simply oil. We did make the mistake of supporting certain rebel groups to help them fight ISIS, which was a flop and big mistake. I can't speak for other countries involved during the conflict..but it appears uprisings from Tunisia to Syria caused a number of conflicts between government and citizen. What went wrong you ask? Multiple opposing sides fighting at the same time. That is what basically what went wrong. Its a wonderful culture... it will be a wonderful country and culture again as time moves on.
