Where is your 'Happy Place.

Thinking about this last night. If someone tells you to imagine your happy place, where are you?

Mine is Woolacombe beach.

By the sea. Not a specific beach, I'm just peaceful by the sea

I have loads but because I didn’t get my December and March trips I’m going to say Tenerife.
Just sat on las vistas beach watching the ferries come in

St Ouen's Bay, Jersey.

Whernside, one of the Yorkshire 3 Peaks

The local library will do for me.

I just like to be able to see and hear the sea. I've always found it relaxing, I enjoy listening to the waves- but last year when we weren't allowed to travel I spent a while feeling so desperate to be near the sea, it was an odd feeling!

Also there's a country walk nearby that takes you up a hill, you can see for miles and it's beautiful. I like it up there.

Other than that, my bed probably 😆

I think I need to broaden my horizons, because my first thought on seeing your title was “I think it’s my bed, or actually maybe it’s my sofa” 😂

Anywhere I can see and hear the sea, instantly relaxes me

Cam2020 · 12/04/2021 08:59

Porthleven harbour, St Ives or my own back garden.

Empty sandy beach in Scotland.

The field near my parents house, you look over the field and past the trees by the river and you can see the church in the distance. Always on a summers day though in my mind, not like the last time I walked there!

Mabelface · 12/04/2021 09:18

My sofa when I have the house to myself. Coupled with fluffy blankets and the cat.

Have to say, my first thought when I read the question was ‘home’.

Aside from that I don’t think I have a specific happy place. But my favourite feeling in the world is being in cool water on a hot day on holiday. So a pool or the sea with the sun on my face, that’ll do for me.

My Bed

cushioncovers · 12/04/2021 09:24

My first thought was my sofa. I'm showered, fresh pjs, with a takeout on its way and a good film ready to watch.

tortoiselover100 · 12/04/2021 09:25

In a hot bath, with something to read, glass of wine, no disturbances at all!

IdblowJonSnow · 12/04/2021 09:27

Any green, pretty space where I can walk.

BIoodyStupidJohnson · 12/04/2021 09:27

Me too.

Let's hope one day we don't accidentally end up on the same deserted beach, resenting each other Grin

SubCoral · 12/04/2021 09:32

@cushioncovers I’m so jealous of your plans today 😂 Another day of endless Zoom calls with boring people whilst I sit on my own in the spare room awaits 😂

Amdone123 · 12/04/2021 09:33

When I can travel, it's sat on a balcony in the sun, reading, chatting and enjoying a cold glass of wine !
At home ( and I thought this just last night) it's when everyone is in bed and I'm sat on the couch with my dog !

Doyouwantanothercuppa · 12/04/2021 09:36

My house, or the green just outside my house. Or the drive through the trees when you arrive at Center Parcs. I’m not very adventurous!

@TeenMinusTests

St Ouen's Bay, Jersey.
I'm more for the dramatic rocks out at Pontac or Le Hocq :) Perhaps Corbiere at a push...

But I left the rock years ago and now it's Amager Strand in Denmark.

bastedyoungturkey · 12/04/2021 09:37

The Isle of Wight

Devlesko · 12/04/2021 09:39

Travelling Wales and Shropshire in my vardo, but the chance isn't likely Sad

A local stone circle called Cothiemuir and Edinburgh.

Love to spend time at both places.
