After a LOT of deliberating, my husband and I made the choice to go to Greece for our Honeymoon. It truly was a trip of a life time. Greece has friendly people, amazing food and some of the most amazing scenery I have ever seen. If you are thinking about Greece, think no further, go now!
From what I had heard, Rio de Janeiro was the place to be for New Years Eve. I have recently made a tradition of traveling to a new place to celebrate the New Year so Brazil was an obvious choice. For people from Northeast America, you know how cold that time of year can be. December and January in Brazil is summer time which means warm weather and beaches! I stand by my decision!
The desire and idea to go to Iceland came about when I saw an awesome picture of the Northern Lights. I decided that I had to see them. After looking into which countries would be good options, I noticed that Iceland has an amazing New Years Eve celebration. I decided I would try to take advantage of them both! I will admit, I didn't know much about the country at the time, but I knew as soon as I went, that it would soon be on the map of extremely popular tourist destinations.
Turkey is one of those very interesting countries that straddles both continents of Europe and Asia. I felt that it was a great time to go to Turkey because the country is in a position where it can become a more liberal, european type country, or become more conservative and I wanted to see how the people balance that. Other than the culterual education I was looking for, I knew Turkey was an absolutely beautiful place and I was right! Turkey has it all, the beautiful architectures from hundreds of years ago, the lavish beachfront towns, not to mention hot air balloons over magical rock formations. None of which can be missed!
Vietnam may sound like a weird travel destination for some, but many are starting to learn about the beauty that this land has. Rice fields, bustling cities, beautiful beaches are just a few things that Vietnam has to offer. Definitely a great trip for the South East Asia region!
While my knowledge of the Caribbean is not as advanced as others, I can’t imagine a place any better than Turks & Caicos. The water is incredible. The people are incredible. The food is incredible. It’s completely safe so it’s not like one of those places where you get to your hotel and never leave the resort premises. If you are looking for a Caribbean suggestion, Turks & Caicos is a great choice!
