More time exploring the Pacific Islands (we forget how lucky we are to have such amazing locations so close to home).
Travel Santa doesn't particularly care if you've been naughty or nice, but right now he's particularly interested in your wishlist for 2018.
My own list for the year ahead: A spectacular flight (one to remember and rave about for the rest of my life); a cycle journey somewhere hot and
sweaty; more time exploring the Pacific Islands (we forget how lucky we are to have such amazing locations so close to home); more opportunities to confirm my suspicion that Australia remains the greatest food and wine destination in the world; live music and sport experiences to match the ones I've had in New Orleans and Texas; and — most importantly — spending time on the road with people I love.
Good luck with your list — even if you don't get you want, let the anticipation be joyful.
