To ask you to show me your beautiful parts of the country

Feeling poorly and haven't travelled for ages. Single mum with not a lot of money at the moment. I want to look wistfully and vicariously at beautiful parts of the country to inspire me back into full health and energy so I can maybe one day venture out again. Words about your life there welcome also.

I live in Sydney and here are two of my favourite beaches. One just a few minutes from my house and h the either a little further but worth the drive!

I'm loving this thread. So many beautiful pictures. Here's a few of mine. All on the west coast of Scotland.

That's where I grew up (not in the lighthouse!). Lovely coastline.

Show quote history

Ha ha 🤣 actually, my mum knows the family who live on the island!

@Heronwatcher when we lived in Copenhagen the coastline up to Helsingborg was very similar- except no hills - I don't think people realise what lovely beaches there are just outside Copenhagen

I feel like I could totally spam this thread with pictures of where I live. I feel very fortunate. We live on the edge of the North Yorkshire moors with forests and moorlands to one side and then the beautiful stunning coastline to the other.

My word... stopped me in my tracks😍

Waitingfordoggo · 14/01/2024 12:03

I keep popping back to this thread. So many beautiful scenes- thanks to everyone for sharing, and to OP for starting the thread! I’m building my list of where I want to go on camping trips!

KnittedCardi · 14/01/2024 12:32

The girls, in the field opposite my house. Hills behind are my view from my bedroom window.

My morning walk. Not in the UK. If I turn 180° there is a very very famous view.

Not my photo and not the same spot (short drive away) but a big clue!

Here is my offering - the Palm House in Kew Gardens lit up during Christmas at Kew, Trafalgar Square, one of the Spitalfields elephants, and St Paul’s seen from the Millennium Bridge 😊.

So many beautiful photos, I think sometimes we rush through life so fast it's lovely to just breath and take in the views, whether it's countryside, sea or city. Hope you feel better soon OP.

I live on the edge of the New Forest, this is just down the road from my home and a local traffic jam!
