Why Pennsylvania?

Stretching almost 600km from the East Coast to the Midwest of the USA, Pennsylvania was once part of the British and Dutch colonial empires. The rugged terrain of the Appalachian mountains and deep forest of the Pennsylvania Wilds offer areas of natural beauty to explore, as do various national parks. For history lovers there are plenty of museums, and the city of Philadelphia in particular offers an abundance of nightspots to enjoy.
