Seem a little random don't they?
Well if I had to choose some of my favorite places, I would have to choose one that was an amazing travel destination and two that are like my homes away from home.
The amazing travel destination would be the island of Iraklia in Greece! Quite a place to spend a 20th birthday.

The next place is actually oddly specific. Myers Hall at the University of Georgia in Athens, GA holds many fond memories for me and will always feel like a second home, even though it has been many years since I've been there.

The last place that feels like a home away from home to me is Santa Fe, New Mexico. My parents are originally from Santa Fe and Albuquerque and we visit constantly. In fact, as of the time I am writing this, we plan on visiting again in just a little over a week.

Oh, what a lovely variety of places, Rhys... and of course Greece is a good start for Myth-Folklore class (no surprise: it's a big part of the opening Classical/Biblical units). And how great that you have a connection to Santa Fe; my mother was also born in New Mexico, and I love the landscape there (we lived in Tucson when I was little). Places are a big part of how/why stories get told... now if only we could magically transport ourselves to all the places we read about in stories! :-)
