It’s no secret that national lockdowns and travel restrictions have got us dreaming. And while many people are still staying clear of international trips, we’ve all been thinking about our favourite destinations and adding to our bucket-list line-ups. Here at Rough Guides, we took to Twitter to find out where our readers are dreaming of, starting with the allure of food…
Answers have poured in and these are the tasty spots our readers are thinking about. From tingling spice in India to smooth and silky ice cream in Italy, we can’t wait to follow the smells of a vibrant market and to tuck into one of these dishes. We’re hungry just thinking about them all…

I’d love to go back to the French Riviera for a strong coffee, a crumbly pastry and a pistachio ice cream right now

Toss up between Thailand, Italy and India. Way too much yummyness to choose from!

I would love to visit Patagonia and go on another road trip in the Zambezi region (previously known as Caprivi). So much to see.

I have 3 on my list currently: Taiwan, Japan, Australia. Recently, I talked to a friend who's convincing me to visit her again in Cambodia, and then I saw some beautiful pictures of Croatia which makes me want to really visit there.

Maybe Japan Never been on my list but a few TV programmes and documentaries have pushed it up my list.

The salt flats of South America. Smiling face with 3 hearts. Totally on the bucket list since watching a travel programme during the lockdown. South America is one continent I haven’t touched, need to rectify that as soon as we’re able to.

Oddly, Aberdeen, just 66 miles away, has been a near-constant temptation for me. It will be the first place I visit when the current 5-mile limits are relaxed.
