We were in Japan last year and hit the cherry blossoms for most of the three weeks as we moved across the country. Fantastic, and we knew we would soon be back but next time in the Fall when the colors are awesome--we hear.

First, welcome back, Iden, your quirky comments and observations have been missed.

Places I regularly return - Abu Dhabi, Qatar, New Zealand, Australia and Norway...and the list will undoubtedly shift or change with future visits to new places.

Qualicum beach, Vancouver island, British Columbia was always calm and relaxing for vacations when I worked in Silicon Valley

We love two places the most and have visited them multiple times: India and Yosemite. One far and one near. For profound, spiritual places on earth, they touch us the most.

I’m glad you’re there at this time of year!

Chicago, Toronto, Montreal, London, Paris and yes, Tokyo. I have to say that given over tourism, I’m glad I got to visit Tokyo when it was just a normal city. The shots of crowds there and in Kyoto make me nervous.

Quebec City at least 10 times during every season but love it best in July when there is the Festival d'ete and music from around the world comes to Quebec.

Baden Baden many times. Stayed in the same hotel and in the same room; go to the same bath house; eat at the same places and take bus into the hills so we can walk up to the "wanderweg" trail that circles then town.
