Have to head out for work now, but thank you everyone for such a positive #DCTravChat this morning.
A6: White Horse Hill and @TheRidgeway1972, as it was in sight of home growing up, and visited often.
#DCTravChat
A5: The @wildpacifictrai, Ucluelet, Vancouver Is. Temperate rainforest, great coastline and wildlife, but, storm watching aside, summer would be preferable if we’re allowed to defer.
#DCTravChat
A4: Safe drinking water, obviously, and layers to deal with changing weather. Maps (in various formats). Most importantly, good company.
#DCTravChat
A3: Exploring new outdoors destinations, but read another reminder this morning that, at least in England, there is an ongoing threat to this: bit.ly/3beGpXu.
#DCTravChat
A2: Over the years, our most consistently visited walk is probably around @RSPBArne, great at any time of the year. Have never had a bad day there, but then there’s @dartmoornpa, @ExmoorNP, @BreconBeaconsNP, and anywhere by the sea. Variety wins.
#DCTravChat
A1: Basing Woods, north Hampshire. It’s our current ‘favourite’ because it’s the largest local accessible space, but it’s not our favourite in terms of where we’d prefer to walk, even if restricted to the rest of the county.

A5: The Kobuk Valley National Park, Alaska, (nps.gov/kova/index.htm), is already a wish list 'favourite place', especially if it were during the Caribou migration. No 📷 yet, of course, but take a look at the link below.

A4: Excluding the airport, the Croatian municipality of Konavle, has been described as “Dubrovnik meets Tuscany” [bit.ly/3prTdPe]; loved how unhurried it was, a place for quiet scenic & historic exploration, great coastline, good food.

A3: Watching wildlife anywhere, and at most times of the year, but, if we had to pick one favourite place & experience on #TRLT, it would be hard to beat a summer bear spotting trip to Knight Inlet, BC.
#TRLT Q3 via @ramblrramblr
A2: Don’t have a regular destination in that sense, but, if we did have one, we would like it to be in the PNW, particularly the north of the @OlympicNP or @TourismUcluelet (pictured), or maybe Homer, AK.
#TRLT Q2 via @CharlesMcCool
A1: Anywhere by the sea has a head start in our list of favorite places. This is from Štikovica, on Zaton Bay, just north of Dubrovnik, 🇭🇷.

Greetings to hosts @TheTravelCamel, @LindaPeters64, @RTWBarefoot, @pip_says, @Touchse, @HeidiSiefkas, and @JLipowski, and everyone else joining for #TRLT today.
We’re in north Hampshire, UK, tonight, and still missing our home county's southern coast. Not long, 🤞.

Today’s #BirdsSeenIn2021 comes from that well known spotting location, an Asda car park; dozen or so Black-headed Gulls, a Red Kite, and what we think is probably a immature Lesser Black-backed Gull (Larus fuscus) on street lighting.
