My Top 5 Destinations in 2024

Japan, Okinawa

What’s not to love about Okinawa? The people are super friendly, the culture is rich and unique, and the mix of exotic vibes with Japanese greatness is just perfect. And let’s not forget the amazing seafood—it’s seriously next-level delicious!

Bali, Indonesia

Bali’s a popular destination for good reason, though it’s starting to lose a bit of its charm due to tourists and greed. But depending on where you go, you can still have a magical trip with breathtaking nature, lovely people, and endless activities to enjoy.

Phuket, Thailand

Phuket is like stepping into a postcard-perfect paradise with its stunning beaches and fantastic accommodation options. And honestly, Thailand has the best food in the world, hands down. Just be prepared—depending on the season, this paradise can get pretty packed with travelers eager to soak it all in.

Lanzarote, Spain

Lanzarote was the biggest surprise for me—I had no idea I’d enjoy a week on the island so much! It takes Spanish food to a whole new level and offers magical volcanic views, all while still letting you enjoy a classic beach vacation.

Tokyo, Japan

I’m usually not a city person, but Tokyo makes me think twice. There’s something to do—and eat—at every corner. It’s clean, safe, and incredibly easy to get around thanks to the top-notch public transport. Tokyo definitely knows how to win you over!
