ooooh
TelAviv not looking bad
but GA look like dem win hands down..
but we all knew that! :P
The South African home is the most beautiful and spacious home yet, that I’ve seen. My next best favorite would be the the home in Asutralia, the view of the city light is unforgetable. Costa Rica has that lavish feel as well as look to it.
New York million dollar homes are not spacious at all. They are normally sized apartments with very high ceilings. At one million dollars or more a pop, in my opinion it’s not all that worth it.
I think I rather fly on a plane for 24 hr, run along side wild lions to get the beautiful home of Johannsberg, South Africa.
i really love such nice houses
