2015 Travel Wishlist and Linkup

I made a decision back when I was jet setting around Europe *loud whisper spoken from the side of my mouth behind the back of my hand* aka living my dream in London, that decision was a promise to travel North America more when I returned to Canada. 

A friend of mine and I have already been discussing potential destinations for this year, whether these actually happen or not only time will tell, but a girl can travel dream. Which is my favourite kind of dream.

1. Quebec City
Reason: It's Canada's most European city, it's historic district is decorated with narrow cobbled streets, they hold a winter festival in February, because February and Canada, and they got history oozing out the wazoo.

2. Vancouver, BC
Reason: I hear the weather is similar to London's. I hear it's a very expensive place, just like London. I hear once I visit I'll never want to leave, just like London. This just might be my home away from London.

3. Boston
Reason: My father is from Vermont, which is part of New England, but it's never really felt part of the stereotypical New England where people say and eat chowdah. I'm wicked excited to see this place for myself.

4. San Fran
Reason: Golden Gate Bridge, Full House, Alcatraz, Sea lions and trams. Yes please!

5. New York
Reason: At least twice a year my family and I make the 8 hour drive to Vermont to visit family and rent a cottage. I think it's high time we take a left out of Montreal and stop in the Big Apple.  I have a feeling the city would be overwhelming on a first visit, so I'm willing to make repeat trips.

  5. Great ideas!! We have made the same promise to ourselves when we move back to Tennessee - we will be doing and seeing way more than we did before we moved to London. Living abroad really changes you, doesn't it?

  6. Vancouver is one of my favourite cities in Canada. I would move there in a heart beat. 2014 was our first full year back in Canada after living in the US for 3 years. It was spent getting organized and used to living in a big city. 2015 will definitely be the year of local travel.

  7. I'm having a hard time putting into words just how it has changed me, but yes, an emphatic yes, it does change you.

  8. I like that, "2015, year of local travel". New motto?

  11. Hi Erin! As a born-and-raised New Yorker, I vote for New York! There are just so many wonderful places to go and good food to eat. But any of these places would be awesome!

  12. I love Boston and if you get a chance, do head to Newport as the mansions there are really worth a visit

  15. As my mum says, 'these are all very doable now', which is nice to think of. Just making it to one this year on my unemployment budget would be fab!

  16. New York has been on my list for so long. I may need some recommendations in the future ;)

  17. Thanks for the tip! I love peering into peoples houses, not in a Peeping Tom kind of way, more of a you-have-your-curtains-open-what-do-you-expect kind of way.
