Wanderlust: Where to in 2018?

January 18, 2018

Wanderlust List I wit & whimsy

At dinner one night over the holidays, my family got to talking about our bucket lists around the table. It was such a fun discussion to hear where my parents & siblings are looking to explore! I have a general idea of places I’m really interested in going to but I have actually never written them down. (Shockingly given my general obsession with list-making.)


A few spots high on my list include:

  • New Zealand
  • Australia
  • Portugal
  • Morroco
  • South Africa
  • Quebec City
  • Iceland
  • Japan
  • Newport, RI

Copenhagen & Stockholm were also on the list until I recently booked that trip. (Going end of March!) So was Charleston (going next month!) There are of course places that I would also love to go back to such as Greece, Amsterdam and Kenya. (And Paris, always, Paris…but according to one of my brothers…I would really make more progress on my wanderlust list if I stopped going to Paris so often – ha!)

I’ve been very fortunate to travel rather extensively starting early in life and it certainly instilled in me a major wanderlust bug! I am always looking at flight deal newsletters and dreaming up new opportunities. Since I made the goal of “adventuring” more this year, I’m excited to see where 2018 takes me.  (And I also recognize how incredibly lucky I am to have somewhat of a flexible schedule to make plans as much as I do!)

So tell me, if tomorrow you were given the opportunity to pick an all-expenses paid vacation to anywhere in the world…where would you go?

    If I could go anywhere I think right now I would wander to Bali or Japan!

    Copenhagen is high on my list right now (along with the rest of Sandinavia). I can’t wait to read about your trip this spring! The other place I’m dying to go (back) to is Kauai. I’ve never seen anywhere more beautiful! We went for our honeymoon 7 years ago and I miss it so much. We’re hoping to get back there in the next year or two.

      Will definitely be sharing lots from the trip! And YES to Kauai! I haven’t been since I was little and would love to go back. I have friends that go often (they live in CA) and their trips always look so beautiful! I hope you make it back soon.
