Travel // My Favourite Four (So Far)

22 April 2012



Travelling has always been a huge passion of mine and I've been lucky enough to visit a lot of great countries around the world. Whilst all the places I have visited have been great to see there are some countries that are firm favourites for me. Since I can't currently take any new photos as I'm camera less I thought it was a great time to show you my 'TOP DESTINATIONS'...

Australia, Disney, Italy and Thailand - It's picture heavy! :)



Australia

The land down under. It's got Kangaroos for starters but it also has beautiful rugged coastlines and cosmopolitan cities like Sydney. I've visited twice for long vacations and believe me, leaving is not easy! I like to think that one day I may live in Australia. I think I'd visit the beach in the evening after work and learn to surf.

Walt Disney World, Florida

I think I became a Disney addict for life on my very first visit. Whilst some people never really get the whole 'Disney thing' I am quite the opposite, I absolutely LOVE it! Our first family holiday to Disney was when I was just five years old, we visited often throughout my childhood and I even went to work there one a summer internship whilst I was at university. Steve and I are currently planning a trip to Hong Kong and I'm hoping I can convince him a day at the Disney Land there is a must! Fingers crossed!

Italy

Such a beautiful country, filled with picturesque towns perched on the waters edge. Portofino is perhaps the most picture perfect of them all, rows of white yachts in the glistening blue water, small cafes and boutiques along the promenade and colourful houses dotted on the hillside it's like a postcard. Another of my favourite places in Italy is Rome, I've only been there on a fleeting visit but I'd love to return to again one day, there's so many incredible historical sites to see.

Thailand

Thailand is a firm favourite of mine having first travelled there on a gap year before University. I was just 18 years old and it was all so new and exciting. I saw a lot of the country on that first visit but I have returned several times since to get a bit more of the sun, sea, sand and famous Thai hospitality. Don't even get me talking about how amazing the food is!! Steve and I are planning to have a wedding ceremony in Thailand on a private beach, I can't wait!

  13. Australia is one of my absolute favourite places too! My parents used to live in Sydney and I miss it so much. Italy is also lovely... I went to Rome last summer and wish I had had the time to visit other cities there.

  15. I've ALWAYS wanted to go to Australia. But (even though it'd be OK ... I guess ... :P) not the Sydney/beaches Australia. The other side, of the country, like New South Wales and the places where the Man from Snowy River was filmed. Yes please.

  22. I lived in Bangkok for 7 months last year, and want to go back to Thailand so much - I was lucky to be able to see quite a few of the islands and country, but nowhere near as much as I would have wanted to <3

    Great post I love travelling as well, I have been to Italy, in the Venice/Verona area and it was so beautiful.
    I was indecisive about whether to travel to Thailand or Cuba later on this year and I have decided on Cuba but would love to visit Thailand some day. Your pics are amazing :)
