"My favourite destination would have to be Belfast, Northern Ireland. I lived there for a couple of years and fell in love with the people, their quick wit and sense of humour. Every time I go back it feels a little more “cosmopolitan” but the people are so welcoming and there is always so much laughter. It doesn’t hurt that it’s a short plane trip to pretty much anywhere in Europe."
