I only put Chicago & NYC coz I can not think of any other metro cities with 5mil above people. If only you asked, city regardless of population, I could have put my real city of choices.
In all fairness though, Chicago is a very beautiful city. It's the only US city that I would consider living in.
And I'm actually living & working here in Chicago for a while now.

There are much more than 10 countries and much more than 10 cities where I would enjoy spending a lot of time in.

However, this is my list that picks 10 for each and this is still a great thread.

Countries:

France
UK/England
USA
Canada
China
Japan
Thailand
Taiwan
Switzerland
Very difficult to choose for 10th place!: It is either between Sweden, Germany, Netherlands, or Denmark. I cant decide right now between one of these four countries for 10th place.


For Cities:

Paris
London
New York City
Chicago
Hong Kong
Shanghai
Bangkok
Seattle
San Francisco
Vancouver
