...taking a little informal poll for my blog. What are your travel favorites (based on places you've actually visited)? Country City U.S. Destination Beach Ski Resort Hotel Me...? Italy - A given, for me... Buenos Aires - Coveting a second home there Palm Springs - So much to do in a small area and great climate Los Cabos - My favorite to date but I suspect this will eventually get replaced Arapahoe Basin - Pure skiing mountain Shoreham Hotel in New York City - Not the fanciest or the biggest but a home away from home in New York City
i could give different answers each time asked, but for now: italy phoenix new orleans/ florida keys any in australia (the stingers a minus, but the toplessness makes up for it) dont ski hotel is too hard to answer. depends on the city.
