1. What book, movie or song has made you want to travel to a particular place? (eg. I went to Prince Edward Island because I was such a Anne of Green Gables fan)
Hmmm I've always wanted to go to the Octopus's Garden and Before Sunset made me want to go to Paris.
2. Aside from your significant other, who would you want to take with you on a dream trip?
My Mom... in fact we are going to Europe next winter.
3. Where would said dream trip be to?
That place that is always in pictures of the perfect beach... white sand, palm trees and turquoise blue water... not really sure where that would be though.
4. If you were hosting guests or providing tips, what three things would you show visitors to your hometown? (be it where you live now or where you grew up)
It I were to show them Omaha....
The downtown area, Old Market
The zoo... 2nd best in the country
And of course the slides :-)
5. If you had a long weekend ahead of you, where would you head – beach, city or country/mountains?
Definitely the beach... take a drive to Corpus for the weekend
6. Do you have a passport? If so, did you get it for a particular trip or just to have, in case?
Nope... I've never been out of the states... going to next year though!!
7. Are there any travel souvenirs you collect? If not, is there something else you collect?
I take lots and lots and lots and lots of pictures.... I also like to journal about my experiences while I'm on vacation. It's something I have been doing since I was little.
8. If you could name a paint colour, what colour would it be and what would you call it?
I love deep cobalt blue so I would name it "Becky's Favorite"
9. If you were heading away for a weekend citybreak solo, where would you go? (forget about practicality here and flight times, assume you can get to any city in the world for the weekend)
NYC... I've never been and would love to go.
10. Is there a song or a smell or something that you strongly associate with a particular holiday/place/time, such that it always takes you back?
There are so many smells... my grandparents basement I associate with summers as a kid, the way my parent's houses smell makes me feel safe, my grandmother's perfume, mountain laurels make me think of spring time, and this is weird but I love the smell of D's deodorant
And songs... well the list is also very long... "Take Good Care of My Baby" by Bobby Vee because my dad sang it to me growing up, this song called "Red Red Robin" because my Mom would sing it to me to wake me up (still does when I go visit), "Smash" by The Offspring because it reminds me of Jr. High, "One Step Closer" by Linkin Park because it reminds me of sophomore year of HS, "Don't Stop" by the RHCP because it reminds me of freshman year in college... the list goes on and one....
