A place I could visit again and again is Bonnieux, France. This town feels more like home to me than where I actually grew up. It’s off the beaten path, with lots of awesome restaurants and shops. Everywhere you go you can sit and look out on something beautiful—from the surrounding lavender fields to the ancient stone architecture. I love waking up and hearing the sheep bleating in the distance and spending my days wandering around, taking it all in.

My dream destination is Egypt, specifically Giza. I absolutely need to see the pyramids and the Sphinx someday! I’ve always had a fascination with ancient Egypt. I love learning about the history and the mythology. Egypt is an absolute must for me.

My favorite souvenir is tickets. I save train tickets, trolley tickets, museum and show tickets—anyone who gives out a ticket, I save it. I love keeping these in my wallet and reminding myself of where I’ve been and what I saw. It’s a great way for me to keep those memories alive and inspire me to travel more. Plus, it makes me smile when I’m searching through my wallet for something else and get a surprise reminder of something awesome I was lucky enough to have done.
