Travel | Dream Destinations & USA Dreamin'♥

Hii :)

Long time no see :( I have been so busy with school I just haven't had time to write but most importantly take photos for posts as the lighting is awful currently but I am back to now posting weekly (hopefully aha).

Today I'm going to discuss my top places to travel as of right now and my Post California Sadness haha.

Top 5 Travel Destinations

1. Australia - Would sell my left leg to go to Aus for a month or so. One of my top things on my bucket list is to go snorkelling in the Great Barrier Reef and would love to do that within the next few years however it's not very likely, one day. However I will be forever terrified of seeing a real life tarantula - just typing that gives me shivers. (send help)
2. Bora Bora - I dream of an exotic island trip like pronto. The little hotel rooms over the water with the clear turquoise waters with thousands of types of fish is my kind of paradise. However, my parents aren't as fond of the idea of a deserted island, so I think that's a destination for the future aha.
3. Bali - Another island holiday trip. It looks so beautiful with all the palm trees and beaches and just being able to see clear blue water for miles *heart eyes*. I have a very strong addiction to blue waters which seems to be showing through very well in this post aha. It also has the perfect climate and ahh someone talk me now please... thanks.
4. Dubai - The palm and the city just looks amazing. Would love to spend some time in both, obviously would have to visit the massive mall, duh, and relaxing by the beach all day would be amazing especially with the insane hotels. Plus the views look to die for oh myy.
5. Barcelona - Despite my addiction to tropical islands and fish I do have a special place in my heart for cities. I visited Paris three years back and was one of the most amazing experiences ever so the next on my list is Barcelona. I've never actually been to Spain and the city itself looks beautiful. It seems to be the most realistic of them all aha.

If you take one thing from this it might as well be that I love the oceans aha.

Post USA Depression 

I'm pretty sure everyone's experienced some sort of withdrawal symptoms from a place before and that was no exception for me, although it was expected it happens every year on holiday but I think it's more sun withdrawal more than anything aha as the UK sees very little of it. But my California withdrawal symptoms were way worse than usual and I may have cried several times throughout my holiday about how I was never leaving, may be pathetic but yanno just staying true. 

I've always dreamt of Cali, recently more than before but actually experiencing it and looking back made me realise how much I took for granted but also how surreal it felt. This time a year ago I'd never left Europe, despite being so excited for my holiday, I was deep down terrified, I really hate turbulence so the thought of an 11 hour flight scared the hell out of me, but as soon as I was there I realised it was the place for me.

When I say it is the place where I belong I mean it x1000. I've never felt more normal and welcomed than I did throughout my trip and how much the cities and different destinations were exactly where I could imagine myself in future years, Los Angeles in particular. It was always somewhere I'd wanted to go for 5 or 6 years desperately and to actually be there was surreal. Like what the hell, how crazy is it to think I saw Bruno Mars, Miranda Cosgrove (childhood idol) and many other peoples houses, like possibly metres away from them just blows my mind.

I seem to have already made the decision to move to San Francisco aha. It was so perfect and the amount of heartbreak I get from thinking about it is painful. It was so chill for a city yet so fast paced and beautiful. I honestly hope with every single piece of my heart we can definitely go back next year and relive that experience, and hopefully take every single moment more for granted than I did as the 3 weeks went so fast yet hold the most precious memories ever.

I felt like this was so rambly but that's it for this week. See you soon.
