As a decently well-versed traveler for my age, I constantly find myself procrastinating my schoolwork with more important things — non-existent trips. I love researching, planning and putting new types of trips together. The world is home to so many different travel destinations — whether it's a historical city, or a sprawling beach, here are some beautiful travel destinations you need to incorporate into your next trip:
1. Dinan, France
A historical city in Northwest France, Dinan is loaded with castles, museums and history, and merchants have taken place in the city for more than 700 years. It actually escaped the bombings of the Second World War. Dinan has many traditional French restaurants along the river.
2. Blagaj, Bosnia and Herzegovina
This is where history meets beauty; it's where beautiful monastery lies beneath a cliff next to a natural waterfall. Restaurants line the river that runs through, with beautiful views. There's also a boat ride that takes tourists and locals alike to see the monastery, while stopping at other scenic spots along the way.
3. The Magical Halle Forest, Belgium
This magical forest is covered with Bluebell flowers, and sometimes has a slight fog. I think the picture does all of the work -- how beautiful.
4. The Canola Flower Fields in China
Only available for certain times of the year, the Canola Flower Fields in China can make for a beautiful sight. You can literally see the flowers for miles. They're even referred to as a "golden sea."
5. Anguilla, Caribbean
The beaches in Anguilla stretch miles. Out of all of the islands in the Caribbean, why is Anguilla the perfect one? The beaches are lined with authentic local bars for the most traditional Caribbean experience. You can rock climb, and view other islands from just one. Water sports are one of the most popular activities on the island.
6. Hocking Hills State Park, Ohio
Hocking Hills State Park is made up of unique, beautiful rock formations and waterfalls. The park is nearly 3,500 acres -- perfect for an avid hiker. You can hunt, fish and picnic. There are even water recreation activities. The best part? You can go explore the park for free.
7. Ischia, Italy
Ischia is a small, volcanic island off of Naples. There's a beach with hot springs, the Argonese medieval castle and museums. Admission to activities is also very affordable.
8. Meissen, Germany
Meissen is a small German town with a population of about 30,000. The history is extensive, with a castle being the main focal point of the town. There are markets with traditional German food and knick-knacks.
9. Koh Lipe, Thailand
Koh Lipe is a small island near Malaysia's border. It has waters filled with coral reefs. There are resorts, and bungalows available for stay. There are a large number of sandy beaches that can accommodate many different types of travelers: relaxed, outgoing, etc.
10. Cinque Terre, Italy
Last but certainly not least: Cinque Terre, Italy. Though you may have seen this picture on Pinterest, you may not know anything about this series of magical cities. Cinque Terre literally means "five cities" in Italian. You can pay as little as 10 euros to travel between all five cities — each with its own special Italian flare. In each of the colorful towns, the Mediterranean Sea flows, vineyards are everywhere, little shops line the streets and every inlet is filled with little fishing boats.
