Kristin over at Windy Poplars is hosting another Kindred Spirit party. This week she wants to know about your vacation style!
Vegas Baby! We traveled to Las Vegas the beginning of March to celebrate my 25th birthday. For a recap of the trip click here.
2. What is the destination of the vacation of your dreams?
Asia – all of it. Steven and I visited Hong Kong and the surrounding islands four years ago. It was unbelievable. The culture, the people, the beautiful mountains and oceans. My dream vacation would be a three week tour of all the major Asian spots: Bejing, Hong Kong, Japan, Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia.
Bejing
Hong Kong
Hong Kong
Thailand
Tokyo
3. Do you have a favorite place you vacation to regularly?
Destin, FL. In my opinion – it is the best beach in the coastal US. The water is crystal clear like the Caribbean and the sand is perfectly white. The locals in the area really care about the beach so it is well kept and clean but not overpriced. Steven’s family has a condo in Destin and we vacation there every summer. Hopefully we will be headed there mid-June!
4. Vacation preference: beach, city, or mountains?
Do you even have to ask? Beach for sure. Put me in a chair on the sand with a drink in the cup holder and a book in my hand – that’s as close to heaven as I’m gonna get here on this earth.
5. Have you ever vacationed with a group of people (other than your family)? If so: How did you coordinate it, and would you do it again?
Our trip to Hong Kong was coordinated through our university with about 25 people in attendance. It was a lot to keep together that’s for sure. I also went on a cruise my senior year with about 15 of my sorority sisters – that was nuts. It’s difficult to keep large groups like that happy because everyone tends to want different things. I wouldn’t mind vacationing with a smaller group – maybe 2-3 couples – but I think that would be it.

I love Destin as well, I went there in April and just fell in love with the white beaches!
Ahhh! I LOVE Vegas!!! :) So much fun!
Hi! Came here from Windy Poplars. Destin sounds fantastic! Nice that the locals take pride as well. Have a great day!
I'm with you on the beach vacation!
We took a cruise with a large group but everyone didn't do everything together. we would go our own ways and meet up to eat, try and plan things together, but it was nice to not be pressured to stay with the group!
We're going to Destin with my family for the 1st time in July! Any tips? We can't wait!
Hey Amber! Thanks for joining the party this week. Sorry I'm just now "making the rounds" - it's been CRAZY around here! I enjoyed reading your answers...an Asian trip sounds wonderful! I hear the spas in Asia are just divine.~ How exciting that you're headed to Destin in just a few weeks - woohoo!!! We're trying to decide where to go for our anniversary this year in July. So many great choices from the partygoers! I hope your day was a good one. Talk to ya soon girl!
I'm officially jealous! I've been dying to go Vegas! One day :) We are going to the Rivera Maya for our honeymoon so I guess that will do for now! Ohh and have you ever been to Seaside? It's close to Destin- where they filmed the Truman Show! Its the cutest most peaceful place in the WORLD! Happy Thursday!
Love beach vacations!
