Here’s a review of what for me was one of the best years I’ve had since college.
Travel in 2012
- Paris, France
- Aberdeen, Scotland
- Copenhagen, Denmark
- Mallaig (Harry Potter Train)
- London (Olympics), UK
- Dubai, UAE
- Boston, USA
- Beirut, Lebanon
- Campbeltown, Scotland
It’s really hard to choose which trip was the best for this year, but I’d probably give the nod to Paris, followed closely by Copenhagen. I also had an amazing business trip to Beirut, which is an incredible place.
