With Valentine\u2019s Day just around the corner, I started thinking about what I\u2019d do for my current girlfriend.\u00a0 Although I am not taking her anywhere, I pondered whether we\u2019d ever visit a place where I\u2019ve already had a romantic experience.\u00a0 Would it be awkward?\u00a0 Would I subconsciously try to recreate my past experiences or specifically avoid the attractions, restaurants, and hotels I\u2019ve been to previously?\u00a0 As the mental list of the romantic places I’ve visited formed in my mind, I got the inspiration for this post.\u00a0 So, without further ado, these are the five most romantic places to celebrate Valentine’s Day, according to me!<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Venic<\/a>e<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n

\"venice-gondola\"<\/h4>\n

As the most obvious choice for an intimate getaway, Venice cranks up the romance even if you\u2019re travelling solo.\u00a0 I\u2019ve been lucky enough to visit several times and it has everything you could need to rekindle an old flame or, in my case, spark a new one:\u00a0gondolas, canals<\/a><\/span><\/strong>, and old, Italian men.\u00a0 Wait, what?\u00a0 Yep, one of the most romantic moments of my life involved daydreaming with my new sweetheart on a park bench overlooking the lagoon, when two old Italian guys walking past said something about \u201camore\u201d.\u00a0 Better wingmen do not exist.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Maldives<\/h4>\n

\"romantic<\/p>\n

Perhaps the most secluded set of islands I\u2019ve been to, The Maldives offer crystal-clear waters, luxury beach huts, and a glow-in-the-dark beach.\u00a0 Unfortunately, the creatures that create the natural lightshow took the week off while we were there. But, perhaps more so than anywhere else I’ve been, it felt like we were the last two people on Earth, which is always romantic.\u00a0 My only regret was wasting a few dozen hours before the trip trying to learn French when the vast majority of people don\u2019t even speak it!<\/p>\n

<\/h4>\n

 <\/p>\n

Prague<\/h4>\n

\"romantic-prague\"<\/p>\n

As one of my favorite cities, I may be a tad biased about the level of romance Prague<\/a><\/span><\/strong> delivers.\u00a0 There\u2019s just something about the Medieval architecture, underground pubs, and gaslamps that transports you and your loved one into some kind of Bohemian fairytale.\u00a0 However, here\u2019s a word of warning to any lovebirds planning a romantic tour of Prague:\u00a0 Czech women are famously beautiful.\u00a0 Try not to get caught looking and spoil the mood, like I did.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Santorini<\/h4>\n

\"romantic_santorini\"<\/p>\n

What\u2019s more romantic than watching the sunset from the rim of a volcano that may or may not have been the inspiration for Plato\u2019s Atlantis?\u00a0 That\u2019s right, nothing.\u00a0 For us, the highlights were picking up volcanic glass on the beach and what we called the Greek Beach Trifecta, which involves sunbathing on three separate white, red, and black sand beaches in the same 24-hour period.\u00a0 The lowlight was trying to help my companion with her hunger by clumsily smashing a half-eaten gyro into her face.\u00a0 Oops.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Savannah<\/h4>\n

\"romantic-savannah\"<\/p>\n

Savannah might be the most surprising and least famous pick for a romantic rendezvous; but, this city has all the mystery and charm of a southern romance novel.\u00a0 The colonial houses, Spanish moss, and the fact that everyone\u00a0greets you on the street creates a truly dreamy experience.\u00a0 I highly recommend making a reservation for one of the finer restaurants set inside an old colonial home.\u00a0 It makes for an unforgettably romantic meal.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Ok, I lied.\u00a0 I’ve only been to 4 out of these 5 places.\u00a0 In the comments below, make your guess as to which location I’ve yet to visit.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
