I have travelled to quite a few amazing places further away than my favourites: Andalucia, Wensleydale, London . I love where I live too but took that for granted..or I would not have chosen to be here!

Buenos Aires I was lucky enough to go there nearly 5 years ago, what a city! The Veneto, particularly the lakes, but great swathes of other parts of Italy. The south of France where quite a few of my cousins live.

I also really love Britain too but I live here so didn't include it in the 3.

Kuramathi - Maldives
Sarasota - Florida
Portmeirion - Wales

Anywhere where my family and close friends are really, I picked the above as the first two destinations were fabulous holidays with our youngest C. Portmeirion because we stayed there with our friends on the way to Llandudno, and had a fun filled 2 days (sunny but snow still on the ground)

Where I live now - the Palatinate in Southern Germany.
The Breton coast, where the waves crashing against the rocks drown out all other noise.
The Suffolk coast.

Gower Peninsula, especially Rhossili Bay
Menorca
Central London, especially the parks
