Every year we like to make a list of our dream destinations for the upcoming year. Sometimes we get around to a couple of them, sometimes we don't and they live on to the following year's list, but either way, it's a great way to start off! We didn't even look back at our 2019 Travel Wishlist because we didn't want to be swayed so we simply asked ourselves 'Where do I want to go' without overthinking it or putting any restrictions on the dreaming of travel for 2020 just pure wanderlust. Heather and I go through our top 7 destinations (and some honorable mentions), including a couple of surprising destinations from us both! Where will we go first?
