ashley89+Follow4 Places Even Lonely Planet’s Founder AvoidsLonely Planet’s co-founder Tony Wheeler just dropped his personal no-go list—and it’s spicy. Russia tops it (thanks, Putin), followed by Saudi Arabia (think: murdered journalists and cheetah smuggling). The US? Off his travel plans while Trump’s in charge. And Bali? He’s over the traffic jams, no matter how dreamy the beaches are. Wild to hear a travel legend say, 'No thanks' to these hotspots! Would you cross any of these off your list? #TravelConfessions #LonelyPlanet #TravelNoGo #HotTakes #TravelNews #Travel00Share
