Hayman Island, Queensland

Palawan, Philippines

Once voted the ‘Best Island in the World’ by the Travel and Leisure awards, the Philippines’ Palawan Island is one of the most diverse and picturesque spots in the world.

Too much choice: Choose from a jungle jaunt, breathtaking mountains or tropical beaches.

Via Globetrotting Stiletto

Quebec City, Canada

Disney princess at heart? You will always feel as if you’re in a fairytale in Quebec City. Think a winter wonderland, Christmas Markets and tobogganing and once the weather warms up, a gorgeous cruise down the river and an explosion of gorgeous floral.

Via Two Drifters

Bruges, Belgium

Referred to as ‘The Venice of the North’, with its magical canals and cobble streets make Bruges one of the most desired spots to travel in Europe.
