Would love to hear some opinions and advice!
My husband and I had the idea of taking a vacation for our wedding anniversary in February. We were originally thinking to do a week or 10 days. My husband had just started looking for a new job when he unexpectedly found an amazing position very quickly, and he will be starting in January. This is relevant because now with a new job, he feels like he needs to wait a little bit before asking to take a 7-10 day vacation, and that a shorter weekend trip would be more appropriate. (But no worries there, we’ll plan a longer trip for the summer!)
If we were to plan a trip for early February, what are some good options for a 4 day long vacation? Totally open to either warm locations or colder locations.
Off the top of my head, some options I’m considering are:
-Mexico City
-Montreal (Is this an insane place to travel in the winter? I personally love cold weather but would like to hear peoples’ thoughts on this. We went to Vienna in the winter recently and loved it, but I believe Montreal is colder)
-Iceland (also maybe insane lol but I’m dying to go. If we don’t go for this winter trip, I’ll definitely go for a summer trip)
US options:
-New Orleans
-Maine (Arcadia, Portland)
-Vermont (Stowe, Burlington)
That’s probably it for US locations unless someone has a great suggestion. We’re in NYC so I’m not necessarily interested in going to a city unless it’s a very “special” feeling city like New Orleans
Thanks in advance!
