    Hawaii, specifically Kauai is my favourite place ever. It's beautiful and the weather is absolutely perfect <3
    Paris is a close second.

    Nelson, New Zealand. Although areas of Britain eg. Moray Firth are equally beautiful

    OMG I live an hour from Storrs! Haha no way, a whole bunch of my friends also go to the University of Connecticut. Never thought I'd see someone else saying that they like Connecticut!

    Mine would have to be my hometown in Connecticut, it is a quintessential New England town and absolutely beautiful. I love it and couldn't imagine growing up anywhere else. Also, Aruba because the beaches are amazing and picturesque. It doesn't hurt that there is never a cloud in the sky, either.
    Haha, your so lucky to live there. I worked in UCONN for 4 weeks and it was just the best place ever I'm going back in like 2-3 years time for more, wooop. Connecticut is just the most amazing place ever... Have you been to 6 flags New England ?

    London. Always miss it when I'm away, and love it when I'm here.

    Aw I'm so glad someone appreciates it as much as I do. It's great you liked it! Haha YES I've been! My favorite roller coaster there is Bizarro (I absolutely love roller coasters lol). Have you been to Lake Compounce? It's in Bristol/Southington. You definitely need to go there the next time you're in Connecticut - it has one of the top wooden roller coasters in the world (Boulder Dash), so worth checking out!

    I really loved Adelaide in Australia 'cause I think it's so awesome how when you're driving around you see kangeroos and parrot looking birds and stuff. Plus I like spiders and Australia has the best spiders.

    I loved Lake Ghada in Italy because it was stupidly beautiful. Also Verona was pretty swell as well 'cause the opera place is awesome as it's where I saw 'Carmen' and got into opera in the first place.

    I loved Norway. No idea where we stopped, but it was so awesome in a long cabin surrounded by snow! Plus the forests there look epic.

    Chatsworth estate in Derbyshire(part of the peak district I think). It's so beautiful for walking and I love Chatsworth House

    I love travelling! I'm desperate to go to Madagascar and the Galapagos Islands to see the wildlife, but they're so expensive! Maybe when I win the lottery some day haha

    Haha it was a pretty awesome park. I loved "the batman" then there was the ride that used to be the superman but I am not sure what it's called now. Nope, never been there but I will make sure I go there next time.

    North Devon :daydreaming:

    I know it's not luxurious or abroad, but it's lovely there in my eyes.

    I've been a few places, seen some beautiful and amazing things on this planet, but it's so true when people say 'there's no place like home'. For me, my home and village is my favourite place in the world
    This. I've been to a lot of places that were so much fun, some places that were absolutely stunningly beautiful but I'm always ready to come home by the end of the trip. I love my home town, it's far from perfect but it's home! My favourite place in the world.
