Love is in the air! Heart balloons, heart chocolates, romantic movies in Netflix, bouquets of flowers, candlelight dinner… Valentine’s Day is that special day (aside from anniversaries) where couples put in extra effort to show their love and how much they mean to them. Wait, isn’t it supposed to be done every day?! Anyway, as much as I love my husband, we rarely take a day off on Valentine’s Day because we know we can always celebrate ‘love’ or have a candlelight dinner anytime. The only time we celebrated Valentine’s Day was in Dubai 6 six years ago. Look how cheesy we were!!! That’s why one of our contributors, Jessica, will share her world’s most dreamy and romantic destinations for couples for all occasions – Valentine’s Day, honeymoon, anniversaries, special occasion, or just because…

I literally can’t wait until I get my passport. All the places you listed I really want to visit. I can’t wait to travel. I’m jealous of anyone who has traveled. I’ve never left the US
One day! When you can, you can travel with your kid and take him to different places!
Love this guide!! My fiancé and I are thinking of taking a trip before he starts residency and this is super helpful. I was recently in France and truly enjoyed my experience there. Greece is also on my list and Bora Bora would be amazing!
Go go go! Travel as much as you can! France is awesome! Greece is also on our list.
Wow i love your list! Santorini is what I am eyeing for our travel date very soon.
Awesome!
Before I get to say my pick on your list, would love to comment on what you said – that showing our love should not be on Valentine’s day alone, it supposed to be done every day. Yes to that! So anyway, my top choice would be Santorini. Never been to EU but wouldn’t miss this for the world if given the opportunity to travel EU.
Hi Sheena. Appreciate your kind words. Me too, I want to visit Santorini.
I should try visiting these places with my friends.
That would be amazing!
Beautiful suggestions. We need to make more time to travel and enjoy
Yes. Thanks for stopping by.
On your article you said about Bali, I agree Bali is become famous place to visit. And Bali is one of several island in my country.
That is awesome! We have been to Bali, and we loved the place!
Oh yes! Santorini is also top of my list. I think It’s the second most romantic place and the first one will be Paris. I’ve been to Bali twice and it was also like heaven on earth! I will never get tired of going back there.
Yes to Bali and Santorini!!!

You have put together a wonderful list of places that no matter what type of traveler you are one of them is sure to become your favorite place to visit with a significant other. The Mornington Peninsula sounds like the perfect one for us and is going on my bucket list.
