I’m narrowing down my options for an incredible winter vacation! Check out these four awesome places where I just might find myself next month!

Just last week I asked you guys for some help planning my perfect winter vacation.

To recap, this was My Winter Vacation Wish-List:

1.    Somewhere hot
2.    Somewhere not too expensive
3.    Somewhere with great food
4.    Somewhere with stuff to see
5.    Somewhere with friendly people

I firstly consulted the Tripbase Destination Finder with my preferences which sent me to….

1. Peru

I like! I also received some great travel recommendations from some spectacular travel bloggers, here were my faves:

2. Malaysia

Recommendation from Cecil, The Travel Feeder

3. Arizona

Recommendation from Nancy D. Brown, What a Trip

4. Belize

Recommendation from Alex, The Virtual Wayfarer

All four places look amazing and fit my criteria for the trip, thanks guys!

I’m looking for sun, good food and friendly people but travel is such a personal thing, everyone wants something different from a destination.

What do you look for when planning a trip? Is it weather, cost, activities, good food, culture, nightlife, family fun??

Post up your comments and let me know!
