My Wish List

My wish-list

Many people call this their bucket list, I personally prefer wish-list, everyone has one and the experiences on them will vary greatly from sleeping out under the stars to being waited on hand and foot by your own personal butler. Here are the top 5 travel adventures on my wish-list.

Iceland The land of fire and ice is high on my list of must-do travel moments. I think I may have to visit twice so I can experience the Northern Lights, snowmobile adventures and frozen waterfalls in the winter, then return in the summer so I can take in the midnight sun, enjoy the Blue Lagoon, and see all the nature that summer has to offer.

Swim with the pigs

Yes, this is a real thing! The district of Exuma in the Bahamas is home to 20-something adorable pigs. Welcome to Pig Island where all pigs go to heaven. Uninhabited and accessible only by boat you float across the shimmering water and as your boat approaches the beach the pigs and piglets take to the water to greet you.

Los Angeles – Sunset Strip

This is high on my wish list. Apart from the usual touristy things to do such as the Hollywood Walk of Fame, Beverley Hills tour and walk to the Hollywood sign I so want to visit the likes of Whisky-a-Go-Go, Rainbow Bar and Grill and The Troubadour where many of my idols such as Bon Jovi and Guns & Roses have graced with their presence and rock shows.

Namibia

One of the safest countries in Africa and rich of history, exotic animals, diverse culture, adventure-packed excursions and massive deserts, Namibia is a fantastic destination for the traveller who wants to experience something new and exciting. Slide down the iconic “Big Daddy” red sand dune in Sossusvlei, visit the Africat Foundation Cheetah Sanctuary then head for Etosha National Park home to rhinos, elephants, giraffes, lions and much more.

Elephant Hills – Thailand

Located in Thailand’s Khao Sok National Park, Elephant Hills is unique and the countries first luxury tented jungle camp. You stay in luxurious glamping tents, with all the facilities expected of a 4* hotel, plus can choose from one of 4 soft adventure tours, where you will take part in their Ethical Elephant Adventure Experience, getting to feed these majestic animals before observing them in their natural habitat – a true must for all elephant lovers like me.
