I’ve been in bed for most of the day (sleeping off some crazy unexpected wave of exhaustion…) so I’m forcing myself to do this blog post, just so that I can actually finish the day by doing something productive…

(Yes, yes… I know self-care is important, and it’s okay to take time off etc. but I really need to do something in order to make me feel like I’ve not wasted my day, and these little challenges leave me feeling pretty happy so…)

Ten destinations I’d love to visit

(Supported by images of course!)

In no particular order…

1) New Zealand (New Zealand captivates me, and I’d love to spend a few months out there in the future!) I have an ‘incredible things and places’ board on pinterest… and these photos have made me fall in love with NZ. 

New Zealand – Sutherland Falls and Lake Quill

Glowworm Caves in Waitomo, New Zealand

The Lost Spring Thermal Pools – Whitianga, New Zealand. North Island.

Tree Restaurant, Auckland, New Zealand

2) Australia – I have Australian family who have always encouraged me to visit the country, and to be fair it looks absolutely incredible… For a long time I’ve been thinking about visiting… though I have a feeling I’ll be visiting NZ first! (oops)

Angel Place, Sydney

Little cuties!

Uluru – Ayers Rock, Australia

Blue Mountains, Australia

3) Bounce Below (North Wales) A giant underground trampoline. I’ll let the pictures do the talking…

4) The Rocky Mountain National Park Colorado

5) Amsterdam 

6) Grindelwald, Switzerland – Specifically for this ace adventure!!

7) Italy – I don’t have a specific location… I just wanna explore!

Frozen Venice

The Colosseum

Manarola, Cinque Terre, Liguria, Italy

8) Jacob’s Well, Texas

9) Pompeii, I know I already mentioned Italy, but Pompeii captivates me in a eerily way. Pompeii is a stark reminder of the forces of this world, yet it is miraculous in it’s own way.

10) Mont St. Michel (Normandy, France). St. Michael’s Mount (Cornwall) is one of my favourite places in this big old world. I spent many of my childhood years searching for the giants heart (needless to say I now know that it’s just a stone…) I’ve also swam and walked the causeway many times, and pretended that it’s my very own Hogwarts. (Cornwall, I love ya…)

 I’ve visited France so many times but I’ve never visited Mont St. Michel… one day I will!

Mont St. Michel (Normandy)

I think because St.Michael’s Mount has been such a huge part of my life it would mean so much to me to visit Mont St.Michel… and I will!! Hopefully very soon!
