I've decided to dedicate Fridays entirely to travel dreaming and planning.
So on Fridays you'll find my odds and ends of planning trips; trips I'll take; Trips I'll never take (not likely!); trips I'd like to take for a specific purpose; trips I'm planning for the near future. Places I dream about!
To kick it off, here's where I'm dreaming about today:
The Yasawa Islands, Fiji
Never heard of them? Neither had I, until I read about them on Nomadic Matt's site:

Here's the deal: It's a budget backpacking way to see 12 paradisical islands that aren't very well known. You can take a "boat tour" - where you purchase a pass on a "Bula Boat" and island hop at will.
I was SOOOOO excited about that!
You see, I want to go to Fiji. I want to go to Tahiti. I want to bask in the azure water and lounge in the white sand and sit under palm trees on deserted beaches (well, I want to do that all the time. In fact, my dream job is beach lounger. Is there such a thing? In my world, yes.) And I want to stay in one of those amazing beach huts on stilts over the water with windows in the floor to look at the ocean and a hot tub on the back deck. You know the type, right?
Well, I want to do that trip, but I want to do that trip with a significant other. And since I'm currently lacking in one of those, The Yasawa island chain gives me a fantastic excuse to see a different side of Fiji!! Aren't you soooooo excited now too?
I thought so.
Where do you dream about being today?
