      I had a wonderful holiday to Sicily once – there was a lovely mix of beautiful buildings to admire and pretty beaches with nice warm water to swim in!

      In Florida they have a lot of hot springs, and during summer you can hire a tube and sit in it and float down the river between springs. It was so relaxing, and nice and cool! I worked at a lab in Florida for a while and some friends took me there a few times.

      Ireland, Scotland and Austria are probably tied in my first place spot as best countries to go to. But my favourite holiday and the one I always tell people about is when I went to Austria in December a few years ago. We stayed in Vienna for a few nights and then went on a train to spend a few days snow shoeing around Salzburg. The Natural History Museum in Vienna was amazing, the architecture and displays were beautiful – would recommend everyone to go there.

    Impossible to choose. There are places that will live forever in my memory and cheer me in old age. Walmer Castle in the springtime with the apple trees in blossom; Yester on a still autumn evening with the mist filling the valley; Dryburgh at Easter, the lambs in the fields; Ardclach in September, the heather in bloom; the bluebell woods of Kilmartin; San Juan de los Reyas; Hospital Traveras; the courtyard gardens of Cordoba in summer bloom; Apolonia, Butrint and Bylis; the Bucovinian monasteries; Venice in May; Gergeti Trinity and Kazbek; Sighnaghi; Lori; Artashat and Ararat; Hattusas; the mosques and mausoleums of Bursa; the olive groves above Sami; the beech forests above Tirana; the meadows of Rigi, Český ráj; Cafe Mayer at supper in summer……too many

    Japan and Hawaii! Japan was so different to anywhere I had ever been before, and it felt like Hawaii had every type of habitat – sandy beaches, lava plains, erupting volcanoes, rainforests, grassy hills, snowy mountains and more!
