Throughout my life, I’ve traveled from coast to coast and around the globe.

I’ve shopped for western artwork in Santa Fe, tried the best fish and chips in London, and have even waded the crystal clear waters in Puerto Rico!

Blessed is an understatement as I realize that not everyone has the opportunity to travel. But I do my best to hold tight to all of these memories and cherish them.

While I have a decent amount of travel under my belt, I certainly have a few more destinations on my bucket list. And although I don’t have any flights booked (yet!) I hope to one day experience them myself.

Here are some of the top places on my travel bucket list… check it out to see if we have any in common!

Egypt

I think I must have been an archaeologist in my former life. I would love to take a river cruise down the Nile and see the pyramids and the Sphinx!

Sure, I’ve seen them in history books and in museums. But to see them in person would be incredible.

The discovery of King Tut’s tomb is so fascinating to me as well.

To have walked through those caverns and discovered the treasures? Amazing! Just call me “Jilliana Jones!”

Galapagos

I understand that it’s quite a trek to get there… but I have to imagine it’s worth the journey once you start to experience the islands!

I’d love to go to Galapagos to experience all of the wildlife, sea life and flora and fauna that are only found there. Sensory overload.

And it’s always been so intriguing to me how certain species are only found in that one place on the globe.

Sharing the memories with friends and families would be quite the treat!

Bora Bora

I’m only on this trip for one thing: Vacationing.

But not just any type of vacationing. Vacationing in one of those huts on stilts over the most glorious blue water I’ve ever seen.

This would definitely be a trip for R&R. Because truthfully, why would you ever want to leave your cabana?

Especially if it has a slide right down into the water??

Prague

I’ve had so many friends rave about Prague time and time again. I love old European cities and streets, and it looks like Prague is filled with it all!

Prague is the capital city of the Czech Republic and it’s known for its deep cultural life.

Doug really wants to go here too so I think this excursion could actually be on the radar sooner rather than later.

Fingers crossed!

New Zealand

Okay… I’m going to totally geek out here so bare with me.

One of the main reasons I want to go to New Zealand? I want to take the Lord of The Rings tour!

We actually talked about it as a family so this one is kind of in the works as well.

But on top of the slightly-dorky tour, this island country is covered in lush greenery, mountains, and the seaside… it seems like there’s a lot to explore!


What places are on your travel bucket list? Did my picks give you any jet setting inspo?

I’m always looking for new places to add to my radar as well… so be sure to let me know!
