Firstly, I know 2011 isn't finished yet, but for me, the travelling has alas, finished for the calendar year.
Here is the chronological order of my year of travelling:
Given I have 3 months ahead of me, with no travelling in sight (my bank balance needs to recover!), I'll be gradually catching up on my blogging,of each location. I've got some amazing photos, and I have to share them with someone! So watch this space....

I've had a crazy year of travel and managed it all within 21 annual leave days. I plan, plan, planned, making the most of bank holiday weekends. When I was about to go on my last week long trip for the year (sailing in Greece), I think everyone at work must have thought I'd rigged the annual leave calendar! |
| Me in Paris (August 2011) |
- January - Czech Republic (Prague, Cesky Krumlov)
- March - Netherlands (Amsterdam)
- April #1 - Spain (Malaga)
- April #2 - Egypt (Cairo, Luxor, Dahab)
- May - Italy (Pisa, Cinque Terre)
- June - UK (Manchester)
- July #1 - Spain (Ibiza)
- July #2 - Croatia (Dubrovnik, Korcula, Hvar, Split)
- August - France (Paris, Poitiers)
- September - Greece (Kefalonia - Lixouri)
Best location... well that's a hard one. I am mostly drawn to the sea, and the 3 places I would like to visit again are Italy (all over!), Croatia - sailing next time, to see more of the islands and go off the beaten track and Greece - sailing again as I got my ICC Skippers license and can now charter a boat! My week in Greece was all about learning to sail, so I didn't actually see much of what Greece had to offer, but I loved what I saw (and ate!), and we're definitely going to use that next year to go on a sailing trip!

In the meantime, check out the photo to the left - this is at the Blue Marlin in Ibiza. It was one of the BEST days of my life at a day club drinking cocktails on the most amazing day bed! More tips to come.
