BALI<\/h3>\n

Named the No. 1 Destination In The World 2017<\/a> By Travellers Choice, Trip Advisor – Bali simply had to be top of this list! The Indonesian island offers it visitors a diverse range of activities and opportunities to immerse yourself in Balinese culture. In October and November we will be hosting the first We Are Travel Girls Retreats in Bali<\/a>, showing you what this island has to offer. From rice terraces, to volcanoes and surfing, to temple hunting there really is something for everyone.<\/p>\n

FINLAND<\/h3>\n

Sleeping in a glass igloo or an ice hotel should be on everyone’s bucketlist! Exploring Lapland in Finland is a once in a lifetime experience where you can go husky or reindeer sledging, snow mobile, go on an icebreaker, see the northern lights, go ice fishing and so much more! And spending the night in a glass igloo means you can watch the northern lights from the comfort of your own bed!<\/p>\n

ICELAND<\/h3>\n

The land of fire and ice! Lately Iceland has been becoming more and more popular with travellers, and quite rightly since there is so much diversity in the landscape of the country. But the best part of Iceland is not matter how popular it has become, you can still feel like you have wide open spaces all to yourself! Rent a car and go on a road trip around the island – stopping to see the black sand beach, the countless waterfalls and of course to take a dip in the Blue Lagoon.<\/p>\n

CAMBODIA<\/h3>\n

In the last 10 – 15 years a lot has changed in this country in terms of tourism. Infrastructure improvements mean that it is easier to get to the main cities in the country and to travel between them. The Cambodian people struggled through a very difficult history during the Kymer Rouge period, but that has not dampened their spirit and genuine happiness that you are visiting their country. It’s already busy with tourists here, but go before it becomes even busier.<\/p>\n

MYANMAR<\/h3>\n

Myanmar, formerly Burma, has opened up to tourism much more since the military rule<\/a> in the country ended in 2011. Your social feeds will likely have been filled with beautiful images of hot air balloons in Bagan prompting you to add this place to your bucketlist. As with other countries in Asia it is only a matter of time before there is a significant increase in the number of tourists visiting, so make sure to get there in 2017 to beat the crowds!<\/p>\n

INDIA<\/h3>\n

Nothing can quite describe the feeling you have entering the gates to the Taj Mahal, the most iconic building in India. This magical place should be somewhere that everyone tries to reach once in their lifetime. But India has a lot more to offer, with numerous cities painted to specific colours, such as Jaipur ‘The Pink City’, Jodhpur ‘The Blue City’ and  Jaisalmer ‘The Golden City’, incredible colour and life to be seen on the banks of the Ganges, the waterways of Kerala and so much more.<\/p>\n

ALASKA<\/h3>\n

Cruising through the glaciers in Alaska is like nothing you have ever experienced. The true colours of the ice are said to only be seen by natural sight and cannot truly be captured by a camera, so this is a place that you must visit in person! Travelling by cruise ship means you can see areas not accessible by land, plus you get the opportunity to spot killer whales right from the deck, you can glide past the glaciers and stop at some of the prettiest towns throughout Alaska.<\/p>\n

ECUADOR<\/h3>\n

Ecuador is one the most diverse countries in South America, one day you can be exploring the Amazon, the next experiencing the old city of Cuzco, ziplining in the activity capital of Banos, whale watching or surfing at the beaches of Montanita or venturing over to the Galapagos Islands. Since Ecuador’s size is not as a great as other South American countries it is possible to visit all of these places over the course of a few weeks!<\/p>\n

MALAYSIA<\/h3>\n

Often overlooked in favour of its Asian neighbours, Malaysia offers it visitors arguably more beautiful beaches and sites with less crowds. The country is full of diversity, you can be exploring the street art of Penang, before heading to the beaches of Langkawi or the Perhentian Islands, and then travel up to the tea plantations of then Cameron Highlands.<\/p>\n

THE EXUMAS<\/h3>\n

We’ve all seen those adorable photos of travelers swimming with pigs at Pig Beach. What girl doesn’t want a drool worthy photo swimming in crystal blue water with a baby pig by her side?  Exuma is a district of the Bahamas, consisting of over 365 islands (also called cays). The largest of the cays is Great Exuma, which is connected to Little Exuma island by a small bridge. Here you can swim with pigs and friendly sharks, and frolic with iguanas on white sand beaches. This place is every animal lovers dream!<\/p>\n

POSITANO<\/h3>\n

Italians call Positano, \u201cHeaven on earth,\u201d and it is easy to see why. When you first catch a glimpse of Positano, it will take your breath away. All the little houses, restaurants and shops hanging on cliffs, greet you with vibrant colors and rich, warm character. From London, you hop on a 2.5 hr flight to Naples, and from there, you take an hour car ride down the Amalfi Coast<\/a> to village of Positano. The drive is gorgeous, with jagged cliffs dropping straight into the ocean and green mountains, painted with colorful little towns, that shoot up to the sky.<\/p>\n

ST BARTS<\/h3>\n

If luxury travel is your thing, and you are not budget conscious, St Barts is the<\/em> island to visit in 2017. While getting here is not easy (you have to fly to St Martin and take a puddle jumper plane over), when you arrive in this gorgeous Caribbean escape you will instantly realize the journey was well worth it! Welcome to paradise. Because of the price tag and the non-existent direct flights, St Barts has remained ultra exclusive and pristine, with gorgeous white sand beaches, clear beautiful water, fantastic restaurants and great beach clubs. And if you want to get active this little island also offers a big variety of outdoor activities such as hiking, paddle boarding, sailing, snorkeling, and surfing.<\/p>\n
