I skimmed through Condé Nast Traveler’s The 23 Best Places to Go in 2023 this morning, and it made me want to book a trip immediately. I’ve been really itching to travel lately, but I’m not sure where to go. Are you planning any trips this year? If you could go anywhere, where would you want to go? If you’re looking for inspiration, here are 10 amazing places to consider…
Above: Wales, which is featured in Condé Nast Traveler’s roundup, for its thriving hotel and forest sauna(!) scene, like Heartwood Saunas.
Yucatán Peninsula, Mexico, also featured by Condé Nast Traveler, for its boutique hotels and lush jungle.
Bend, Oregon, for its breweries, outdoor adventures, and laid-back vibe.
Mauritius, for its turquoise water and magical sunsets.
Montreal, Québec, for its food scene, cobblestoned neighborhoods, fall foliage, and historic churches.
Zion National Park, for its hiking, stunning views, and blooming wildflowers.
Dominica, for its wildlife-rich rainforests, hiking trails, and sea life that’s prime for snorkeling and diving.
New Orleans, for its food, music, architecture, and energy.
Zanzibar, for its rich history and white sandy beaches.
Santa Fe, New Mexico, for its museums (I’d love to visit the Georgia O’Keeffe Museum), restaurants, and Pueblo-style architecture.
What’s on your travel wish list?
PS. A travel tip and more U.S. vacation ideas.

everything is kind of up in the air
We have terrible wanderlust at our home. 7 years of pregnancies and babies has kept us home, but we have some upcoming trips planned to Disney, the west coast and South Carolina. I’m always looking for great experiences for our family.
All three of these trips sound amazing — have so much fun, Chelsea!
After seeing these images, im certainly getting inspired to travel to one of the beautiful places. Zanzibar looks like a dream!
I totally agree! Zanzibar would be amazing!
