Hello everyone in 2019!
As the year has just started I have spent the last few days relaxing and recovering after crazy NYE party ( i havent had a party like that for ages- it was awesome!) and I spent the time thinking of new goals, resolutions and destinations. I have so many plans in my head and I still struggle to seriously write them down as honestly my problem is – I want to go EVERYWHERE! Can anyone relate?
However after thinking deeply about where I really want to go RIGHT Now i created a list of 10 places I am seriously dreaming of and hoping I can visit some of them in 2019!
1. Bahamas
I know this place is currently quite popular destination but I seriously would looooove to visit in 2019! I have been thinking of that place for years now! And I am sure tropical flamingo couldn’t imagine better friends than couple of sharks and swimming pigs haha!
2. Hawaii
Another destination I have honestly been dreaming of! This would be a dream place to take my first surfing lesson! Also as a tropical flamingo, how could I miss the real aloha vibes? I would love to swim with turles, visit all the incredible beaches, waterfalls and if possible ( please please please!) stay at the Royal Hawaiian Hotel- the real tropical pink paradise and experience the Honolulu Latern Festival!
3. Dubai
This place seems just so unique and different from any other places I’ve travelled to. Dubai became my obsession and I am really really hoping to tick this destination off my bucketlist in 2019. Not gonna lie I am already making some serious plans! Fingers crossed! I would also love to visit Abu Dhabi, experience the Desert ( my dream since forever!) beautiful Dubai Miracle Garden, visit the absolutely insane Zaya Nurai Island and dine in the underwater restaurant – Ossiano. That would be GOALS!
4. Bora Bora
Probably this place should be at the top of my list as it’s the most far one and the most expensive destination to travel to. However I am being positive and thinking that If I work hard this year, it can take me anywhere I want! Going to Bora Bora would be honestly the biggest travel dream come true( after Maldives, Seychelles and Aruba that I also had on the top of my bucketlist and I have managed to visit last year!)
5. California
Honestly, I don’t understand why I haven’t been there yet! I felt like I have as my Pinterest is just full of inspo, pinned cafes and places I want to visit. I really hope this year my Big Californian dream can come true! I feel like this place is literally calling my name! All the palms, magical sunsets, cacti and THAT pink door! Dying to go!
6. Cape Town
Mama Africa will forever scream my name! After visiting Zanzibar, Kenya, Morocco and Tunisia, I feel like I would love to also experience a different side of Africa and head to the South. Cape Town has been on my bucket list forever but recently I am seriously obsessed! I guess I don’t even need to explain how much I would love to visit the famous penguin beach! Flamingo and penguin- can you imagine?! Awww! Please, please, please 2019!
7. Capadoccia, Turkey
Those of you who follow me on Instagram since the beginning already know how long I’ve been planning a trip there! And I almost went in October 2018 however due to some personal and health issues I had to cancel the trip. I really hope 2019 will finally bring me to this magical place. Would love to experience the ballon ride at sunrise. Ah, what a dream!
8. Cayman Islands
Another exotic destination so high on my bucket list! I have been following my bloggers friends who went there on a Press Trip in 2018 and they got me even more obsessed. I would love to experience the helicopter ride for the first time ( I guess that would be a perfect spot!), the stingrays city- it looks absolutely unbelievable and the starfish point- wow! Also the food and the most insane looking beaches. How could The Blonde Flamingo missed that? 2019- teleport me right there!
9. Tulum, Mexico
Tulum is forever somewhere in my head. I would love to visit all the adorable cafes, also my dream Azulik Hotel, snorkel at cenotes, buy all the boho accessories from my flat ( let’s just stop for a second and imagine the size of that suitcase haha!) and eat tacos!
10. New York
I guess i don’t have to explain why I would love to ( finally!) visit New York. Even though I live in the big city- London, I have a feeling that NY is completely different and experiencing it would be absolutely incredible. I already have a list and Pinterest board of all the cute and Instagrammy spots I would love to tick off. My huge dream would be to visit New York during New York Fashion Week ( after attending London and Paris one in 2018!) Ahh, bring on 2019!

As you can see my bucket list is never-ending haha and I was limiting myself to really think of the Top 10 places! I really hope I will manage to visit at least few of these incredible places. I am sure they would inspire me to create more and more for you!
What places do you have on the bucketlist for 2019?
