Do you have a favorite place you have visited? Where is it?

My favorite place I have ever visited was Costa Rica when I was an elder teenager. I went with my family, who had been planning the trip for years. It was an unforgettable adventure that I will hold vivid memories of for the rest of my life.

In Costa Rica, our adventures included: a zip-lining/hiking journey through the vast, glorious rainforest, hikes through rainforests rich with animals of every sort, and swimming in a subterranean stone room with a large open window above it with my sisters. I remember sipping a strong alcoholic beverage in a hot tub,

My second favorite place I ever visited was St. Thomas in the Virgin Islands. While there, I scuba dived with a millions of different types of colorful fish and plants, and saw a sting ray in the wild.

What struck me most about the dense tropical landscapes was the diversity. I immensely enjoyed both trips. What’s your favorite vacation memory?
