My Bucket List / Experience Goals
Spend Christmas On The Beach
Ticked off in December 2010
What it is
Spending Christmas on the beach in the sunshine is a classic for anyone from a cold country.
How to do it
Pick a destination in the southern hemisphere or the tropics. Bondi Beach in Sydney is famous for its Christmas party.
Top tip
Book flights early; Christmas fares climb fast.
My experience
As someone who grew up in England, Christmas was never a time of year associated with warmth. The idea of kicking back on the beach sipping on a Christmas cocktail sounds epic! Who needs a white Christmas when you can have a sandy beach Christmas!
