My Favorite Place

Hello Everyone,
   It’s hard to choose just one place as a favorite but I would have to say the beach.  Living in California we have a distinct advantage of such an amazing coastline unlike anywhere else. We are fortunate in this area to live within a short distance to several beaches. I lived in Santa Barbara for a little more than a year and the beaches were within walking distance.  I grew quite spoiled to say the least.  I find that the sound of the waves calming, even on the most stressful days. Taking the time to enjoy the sun and the sand puts everything into perspective and provides a unique sense of  tranquility.
 However, if relaxing at the beach isn't your cup of tea, it also offers several activities including hiking, surfing or sea kayaking to name a few. I personally would highly recommend taking a guided tour through sea caves.  It's definitely an adventure worth having! I hope you enjoy your next trip to the beach whether it be to relax or explore!

    Hi, Rhiannon,

    Wow, I also really love the sound of the crashing waves of the ocean. It's therapeutic! When I moved here in California three and a half years ago, I lived in Oxnard. There was a beach nearby, around 15 minutes drive, and I really wanted to spend more time there. But unfortunately, I didn't know how to drive then. I bet you miss being in Santa Barbara!

    Thank you for sharing!

    Cheers,
    Regina
