2019 Hottest Destinations and Places to Travel

2019 Hottest Destinations and Places to Travel
Have you already travelled to stacks of places all over the world? Not sure where to go next?
The places below are apparently the hottest destinations for 2019. Who knows if they are, but it’s handy to have a list to browse through at the beginning of the new year. Maybe it will help you settle on your destinations rather than leafing soullessly through magazine articles and becoming more confused by each turned page.
So, to save you time and effort, I’ve trawled through my favourite sites and done the work for you. Interesting to note which cities come up more than once on different lists. Pour yourself your favourite tippled and start surfing!
