Playa del Carmen, Mexico

First stop, the Mexican Caribbean, and Playacar Beach in Playa del Carmen. Three point eight kilometres of sand, so plenty of room to spread out. I've already picked my lounge chair. The one in the shade of that palm tree.

Fanø Island, Denmark

Next, Denmark, and Nordby on Fanø Island. It looks like a fairytale hobbit village, with thatched-roof cottages, a massive fifteen kilometre beach, and lazy seals. Lazy seals? My kind of travel buddies.

Dades Gorges, Morocco

Then southeastern Morocco, and the Dades Gorges. Canyons stretching two hundred kilometres through rock two hundred million years old, with palm oases, Berber cave villages and rammed-earth kasbahs. Makes my old rock collection look tiny.

Machu Picchu and Galápagos

Over to South America. Why choose between Machu Picchu and the Galápagos? This one does both in one journey, with an expedition cruise built for deeper wildlife encounters. Ancient ruins in the morning, giant tortoises later. Sorted.

British Virgin Islands

Then the British Virgin Islands, for slow mornings, salty air, and barefoot afternoons. That's it. That's the whole plan. And honestly? I love it.

Patagonia, South America

Down to Patagonia, with Australis Cruises. Remote landscapes, fjords and glaciers at the end of the world. Sometimes all you need is a small hike and a gorgeous view. Small hike, I can do. Big view, even better.

Dubrovnik, Croatia

And finally, Croatia, and Dubrovnik's Ragusa Old Town. Medieval streets, terracotta rooftops, and views over the Adriatic. Imagine wandering those lanes. Actually, no need. Next week, I'm hosting from there.
