What's on your bucket list?

I'd love to spend a week or two in Venice. Maybe rent an apartment and just explore the whole lagoon, take a ton of reference photos to do paintings of, and do some painting there.

How about you?

Mostly the southeast and eastern regions but all of it is appealing- the Loire valley, the Dordogne, Grenoble, Poiters, anywhere Eleanor of Aquitaine might have been. Oh and a river cruise on the Rhine.

I could live there it’s so awesome! We just walked around and got lost and found in Venice.

With the reign of terror we are experiencing in this country I’m afraid to fly anymore. But I’d return to Venice in an heart beat but Tahiti and New Zealand are my next wishful destinations. Sadly the way things are going I don’t know if I will make it there.

I've been there several times, but only for a few days at a time. It's a step back in time to the 18th Century. Just magical.

Travel, mostly. Both the states and abroad. But alas, finances.
I will just have watch you tube videos and find recipes of food from the places I would love to visit.
