    I just love traveling! My favorite place I have been is St. Augustine’s in Canterbury UK. I have been allot of places, this one just created such a peace in me. I was able to lay in the fluffy grass, look up at the heavens and I felt calm. So many of my travels are about excitement and are loud and bright.. This was what I needed at that moment in my life

  4. Jennifer Montgomery says

    Washington DC was my favorite place because it was my first solo trip. I even learned to ride the Metro by myself! I felt like I could conquer the world after that trip!

    • Paula says

      Jennifer, congrats on riding the Metro in DC solo! I absolutely love the area, so much to do!

  6. Angela says

    I have been to many places in the North America, but my absolute favorite place is Disneyland!! I love to see my daughter’s eyes light up every time like it was the first time. I am not worried about bills, work, or anything else. I am carefree. We eat meals at odd times, we nap during the day, whatever we want to do, we can. There is no better feeling than that!!

  7. Kathleen Hoffmann says

    My favorite place would have to be Rome! Such a beautiful city, so much history. And the food! And the shopping! Can’t wait to go back!
