Tarah's Picks:
~ Ireland has always been one of those places that has pulled at my soul, it may be because my background is Irish or that I have a fondness for the mystical. it's a place that encourages that, one with a long and rich history of fairies, vikings, and Irish clans that i've always been fascinated with. its quaint pubs with their pints of Guinness and bowls of stew and dumplings and the staff and owners who know each patron by name. the closeness of community with a touch of magic is irresistible to me. visiting castles, museums, the little shops and exploring those famous Irish country sides are top of my list.

~ known as an idyllic couples island, that of white cliff side homes with blue roofs Santorini has always been a honeymoon destination. however, that's not the reason for it being on this SBDgirl's list. it's picture perfect, plain and simple. it's all things that my fantasy vacation has: great food, beautiful beaches, and simply beautiful surroundings. on the to do list: scooting around the island with my munchkin on what I assume is a Vespa, playing in the sand, making sand castles and strolling the markets with my Mar Y Sol woven beach tote filled with treasures picked up that day ~

Portofino, Italy
~ i first saw a photo of Portofino when a girlfriend went for her honeymoon. she was sitting on her hotel patio, overlooking the turquoise waters sipping an espresso. i knew, in that moment, i desperately needed to be where she was. nestled in the mountains of a quaint fishing village, Portfofino is surrounded by a picturesque harbour. a popular tourist destination for celebrities and non; its located out of the bustle of the Italian Riviera but not so far you can't recognize the beauty of Italy.
Istanbul, Turkey
~ i dare you to tell me that you, too, wouldn't want to experience a Turkish bath. beyond the beauty that is Turkey, the magic of Istanbul is very east meets west, full of culture and experience, history, art and architecture. picturesque, absolutely but close your eyes and image sailing the clear, deep waters of Turkey, taking in all the rich land around you, all while enjoying the sweetest of some turkish delight ;-)
