Fantasy Travel: Destinations to Dream About While We’re Stuck at Home

You guys already know my favorite pastime is travel planning. Whether or not I ever get to go on the trip, I still enjoy the research and dreaming. Right now, when most of us can't go anywhere, fantasizing about future travel is a welcome relief from inevitable pandemic anxiety.

The image above is of Dry Tortugas National Park, off of Key West in Florida. I saw a photo of it years ago and it’s been on my dream list ever since. (This virtual tour is pretty cool, but I still want to go there in the flesh.)

I asked my colleagues to send me their top bucket-list destination — either a locale they’ve always dreamed of visiting, or place they’ve been and want to return to with their families — and they offered up some fabulous spots.
