Off to France in August visiting various friends in Brittany, Burgundy and Avignon) then finally three weeks over Christmas in the south of Spain. Oh, how I love being semi-retired!
Away to Colombia and Peru for 4 weeks at the start of Feb, have a little 3 day trip to Nice booked in the spring and couple of weeks in Greece in the summer. Oh how I do hate working and living in Europe.
What about yourselves?

Originally posted by @trev33I find travelling to Cusco to be dreadfully sad. It's awful seeing the ruins of the Inca empire, destroyed by the Spanish.

That must be very exhausting for you Leur.
You need to treat yourself to something special once it’s over.
As for my holiday plan? It will be 10 days in Spain or Portugal though tbh I’m just as happy staying at home and since retiring have big plans for a vegetable garden.
Originally posted by @huckleberryhoundI thought China was totally ghastly.I stayed in the most melancholic town in all of history, called Fangshan. What a dump.
Back to China for a month. We might go somewhere else asian while we're there.
Originally posted by @js357Devon - what a special place. Sidmouth is so pretty.
This year it’s domestic US travel, all family/friends oriented. SoCal, New England, Florida, plus some time on a river yet to be decided. Add me to the list of those who are happy at home. My wife has the travel bug which I benefit from, as she does the arrangements. Most recently with a friend, 3 weeks in Devon and London.
Originally posted by @great-big-steesGoing to Cuba (at least when I went) is like stepping back in time. The sanctions had that affect.
We are off, yet again, to Cuba on the 14th February then who knows where later on in the year. Probably a couple of trips to Quebec to visit family there (my dad and sister and her family) and hopefully some Camping...tent.
