Places Lauren Godfrey has visited
Lisbon
I’d class Lisbon as one of my favourite European cities. If you go, I highly recommend an evening at Park Bar or Pensão Amor.
Aruba
A small island that packs a mighty punch, this Caribbean destination is one of the friendliest I’ve visited. If you like to explore the ocean, you have to dive the SS Antilla shipwreck.
Las Vegas
Las Vegas was the best birthday present I could have ever asked for. And to prove it, I’ve been back twice more since. A highlight was definitely a champagne breakfast and helicopter tour of the Grand Canyon.
Cancun
There’s so much to do in Cancun. As well as the obvious pool parties, you can also visit the world-famous Chichén Itzá,and even fly above the trees on a zip line course through the Mayan jungle.
Rome
You’ll never run out of things to see and do in Rome. After eating too much pasta, I found the best way to explore this city was on a private Segway tour.
Netherlands
Amsterdam is non-stop fun from touch-down. Be sure to ride the swing atop the A’DAM lookout and stay at the W – you can read my review here.
