So, I decided to issue you all a challenge! I am looking for the best of the best. Tell me where YOU like to travel
and why.
Are you up for the party, the adventure, the solitude or the friendship? I want to know the advantages, and the pitfalls. The highs and the lows. I want budget and I want luxury. Show me something wonderful, show me something unique. . .

So there it is, what have you got in mind?……
