One of the most influential and powerful countries on earth, the United States of America is as much about hedonism as it is about finding yourself. The fast-paced, hip streets of New York, the astounding magnificence of the Grand Canyon, the sun-kissed boulevards of LA, the swinging streets of San Francisco, the biting beauty of Alaska, America is all about people, cultures, influences and energy coming together in a blaze of defiance. To get under America’s skin read Jack Kerouac’s ‘On the Road’, watch ‘The Godfather’ trilogy, and listen as James Brown sings ‘I Feel Good’.
