With weather that mostly invites to hibernation and a constant blaaahhh feeling, I’m starting to dream about travelling. Dream about fleeing this grey, shitty weather. This stressful every day life!
On days like these, when all I’m longing for is sun and warmth, one of the first dream destinations coming to my mind would be Thailand.
Turquoise blue water, white sand, palm trees, yummy drinks and food, diving… all that combined with seeing a totally magnificent culture. Oh, how I wish I could be there right now… SO relaxing, SO awesome, SO the right place!
J and I would rent a little hut right by the beach. We would sleep in every day and then have a long brunch with fresh fruit like pineapple or mangoes.
We would spend our days in a hammock, a book in one hand and an ice-cold drink in the other- and at the beach. Sometimes we would take a boat out to go diving. I can almost feel the warmth of the sun on my skin and totally envision all the colourful fish. In the evenings we would go out and try out the tasty local cuisine.
On some days we visit some of the cultural treasures of this beautiful country. Or how about riding on the back of an elephant through the jungle?
A vacation in Thailand would offer so many new exciting adventures!
Dreaming about travelling sure is a nice thing – especially on a grey november day. But unfortunately reality is catching up with me. Tomorrow it’s back to work to bring home those travel bucks!
So, what place tops your list of dream destinations and why?
*sigh* this just totally made me depressed. i haven’t had any vacation this year (besides the 4-day-trip to berlin in may) and my vacation spots over the last few years have been … hmm, lemme think… the US, the US and… the US. while i really love going there, seeing friends and family and all i also wish we’d go some place else some time, too. i know C just wants to go home and unfortunately our funds aren’t big enough to travel to the US and other great places at the same time but it does make me a little sad because i really would love to see so many places…
my #1 dream-spot to go to would be south africa or new zealand / australia. i also saw something about peru the other day and that looked great, too. ohhh, if i could i’d travel a lot. all over the place. the only thing that for some reason doesn’t interest me that much is asia. can’t tell you exactly why but it just isn’t high on my list…
