Pick a Place to Go


This week of hearts, don't you just want to pack your bags and purchase airline tickets online en route to you dream destination?  Pause for a moment and think about where that would be. Somewhere exotic? Or somewhere romantic? 

Being spontaneous. There's something very exciting about planning a trip to a random location. One need not get very far. You can set the rules and limits to how far you'd like to go. Perhaps, within the country you've never been to. Or a place within the same continent. 

With the goal of creating new experiences in mind and a change of scenery, selecting somewhere low-key as opposed to a grand getaway, is more achievable, especially at the last minute.

Relax and unwind.  Sometimes we just need a breath of fresh air after a week of deadlines and tiring commute.  Define your idea of relaxation and activities to unwind. A week of culinary lessons in Tuscany? Or wine tasting in Napa Valley. Ah dreamy!

If you have the time and budget right now, where would you like to go?

On a personal note, I've been clearing the other room and realized I have to let go of so many accumulated things.  I found the above Lonely Planet books and decided to let go of them along with my other books to gain space for all the baby stuff.  While sorting this out last weekend, I realized how my life is going to change. Traveling will have to be put on hold for a while in exchange for something unknown to me.  Let's see where this new adventure takes us. :)

Wishing you all a happy week!
Love & Light,
Arni

    I'm also a Lonely Planet girl, though my collection is smaller than yours :)
    It must quite exciting to be preparing for such a beautiful, life-changing event. I sometimes think that maybe it's about time for us to start thinking about babies, especially as I don't seem to find a job. But we always say that we would like to travel a bit on our own first before putting everything on hold. I think it really changes your everything!
    On a lighter note, if I could go anywhere and needn't caring about money I would go to Iceland for a week. There are many other places I would love to visit but they would require more time, as they're further. But I think Iceland could be a great place to spend some romantic days with my boyfriend :)
    Do you have some plans? I hope you enjoy a wonderful week xo

    This sounds so lovely. I think I would choose to plop down somewhere tropical. Probably back to Puerto Rico, where my heart still is. :)

    Botswana!! I want to go sooooo much! I want to visit a land with huge skies, star filled nights, wildlife and sunshine. Botswana is calling me. But so is Madagascar. My list is long long long!
