Favourite places

A while back I had some trouble with my Internet banking - used someone's computer and therefor had to , in addition to the regular password, also answer a security question. The question - "what is your favourite travel destination?" - now how am I supposed to remember what my favourite place was last year - 3 attempts later and I had no access to my account and had to phone Canada for a new password.

Got me thinking that I should probably start to actually keep a list - the order will probably change from time to time as my mood does, since favourite places doesn't just get there for the beauty or awesomeness, but also for those special memories that was made there - good time and unforgettable people...

So here goes some of my favourite places (in no particular order and sure to be updated)

  • Sossosvlei (Namibia) - best sunsets ever
  • Okaukuejo waterhole - Etosha
  • Cairns - above and below the water
  • New York
  • Isle of Skye, Scotland
  • Rome - Sistine Chapel
  • Sydney
  • Cape Town
  • Knysna, SA
  • Barberton, SA - view from Bulembo
  • Mpumalanga escarpment, SA - yes all of it
  • Barra Lodge (and Manta Reef), Mozambique
  • Saskatchewan skies -especially on a cold clear spring evening with Northern Lights
  • Banff, Lake Louis and the Rockies, Canada
  • Whitehaven Beach and Whitsunday Islands , Australia
  • Franschoek Valley, SA
  • River No2, Sierra Leone

.......and yes, many more
