I am glad to say that I have been nominated for a Liebster Award by fellow blogger Linda at Draw My Map. Thank you for the nomination. I do apologize that it has taken me so long to post but better late than never! So here goes.
Remember to check out below to see which 11 bloggers I nominate!
My answer’s to Draw My Map’s questions:
- Describe your blog in 5 words
About me and the world. - What would your ideal weekend look like?
A quick getaway to a new destination or a re-visit a favourite. If I have to stay in town then I would like to go to yoga, go out with friends for an evening and then relax at home on Sunday with some cooking. - Which has been your favourite destination so far?
Oh that’s a tough one. By far my favourite country is Ireland. The people are so friendly and likable and the landscape is stunning. It’s a unique shade of green. However, for cities I would say my favourite is Paris with Istanbul and Belgrade close behind. Oh but India was amazing too. And Budapest. And Prague…and… and… - Would you rather go skiing or lie on a beach?
I hate snow so I’d pick the beach but checking out a city would usurp the beach. - What made you want to start a blog?
To share and write about my travel plans and to keep me focused on reaching my goal of extended travel. I was also encouraged to start one from a few people. The power of suggestion! - Is there anywhere you have been that you would never visit again? Yes. I never want to go to Athens, Greece again. It’s chaotic, in disrepair, smoggy and uncouth.
- Name the top three destinations on your travel wish list.
1. Re-visit Ireland + add Scotland
2. Easter Island (Chile)
3. Vietnam & re-visiting India (tie)
Though these tend to change often – LOL - In which country have you met the friendliest locals so far? Ireland by far.
- City or small town? I’m a city girl, well, medium-sized city.
- Do you like to spend time in nature? Some. I love trees and being around them, going for walks and enjoying fresh air. I want to start hiking. I’ve never gone camping and don’t really have a desire to do so.
- Do like to have everything organised, booked and planned before you leave for your trip or do you like to wing it and see where the wind takes you? About 70% organized and 30% winging it. I like to know where I’m gonna go and what I want to see but also leave some room for spontaneous events.
