I don’t know about you, but I’m very excited about 2020. I have a feeling it’s going to be a great year! And I’m hoping that means there are more travels are in store for me.

As I was preparing for this post, I looked at my travel wish list from 2019. Sadly, I didn’t get to go anywhere on my list last year! I guess 2019 was my first full year living back in Minnesota, so I’m chalking it up to a transition year. 🙂 But I did get to explore a few new cities in the States that I adored. I’m looking at your Charleston.

Here’s what my 2019 travel wish list looked like, in case you’re interested:

• Portugal (and Spain)
• England (a road trip throughout England and Scotland)
• Czech Republic
• New Zealand
• Canada (Quebec City, Alberta, Banff)
• Cuba
• France
• Italy
• Japan 
• Kenya

And you can check out my 2018 travel wish list as well. It was my first on the blog and continues to be one of my most viewed posts each year.

So where do I want to go this year? The list below is where I ended up. It feels a bit like a combination from 2018 and 2019, but with two new additions. I also changed the format so that I could provide more detail. I thought about my list this year as more of a trip instead of one specific country for each bullet point. As such, I added a few cities and points of interest under each. Make sure to look them up. They’re beautiful places!

Here’s my top 10 travel wish list (in no particular order):

• Portugal + Spain
  • Seville
  • Lisbon (it’s a sister city to San Francisco!)
  • Porto
• Thailand + Mynamar
  • Phuket
  • Bagan
  • Phi Phi Islands
• Switzerland
  • Lauterbrunnen
  • The Jungfrau Region
  • Lugano
  • Lucerne
• England + Scotland
  • Lake District
  • Cumbria
  • Edinburgh
  • The Cotswolds
