Perhaps we shouldn't, but everyone has favourites. When I fall in love with a person, I marry them (this has only happened once.) When I fall in love with a city, I write a travel guide about it (I am beginning to lose count.) I sometimes live with both. Here are the cities I've lived in and fallen in love with - or at least visited many, many, M-A-N-Y times.
We write travel guides based on when you are able to travel rather than only where you want to go. Because we understand there isn't always a choice. Not to worry, the world is a great big place and here's what you can do with it...
For a spot of year round sunshine, try the Caribbean or the Middle East.
Embrace the cold and the sight of the sun by travelling to the Arctic Circle to stay in an ice hotel or hitting the European and North American ski slopes.
Catch the last of the ski season in Europe or else enjoy some off peak art in Italian hotspots like Venice and Florence.
Make sure to head to Seville to catch Semana Santa and the Feria de Abril.
May is a wonderful time to start visiting Southern Europe before the skies become too hot or everyone leaves for the August shutdown.
Zanzibar and New York City are just two extremes open for travel at this time of the year. And literature lovers should make their way to Dublin for Bloomsday.

August marks your best shot at Britain as the rugged Pembrokeshire coastline warms up and the Royal Parks of London spill with summery good cheer.
Surprise beach spots in Europe, like Scheveningen in The Hague, also make sense.
September's a dream month for much of Europe, as the crowds melt, the kids go back to school but the days are still long, the air fresh. Much of China and Japan is readily accessible and the oppressive levels of heat in the Middle East begin to wilt down to more bearable levels.
Greece and the Galapagos come into their own as travel destinations in October, while "leaf peeping" makes forests scarlet in New England.
November is a great time to visit the UNESCO side of Tenerife with warm days and evenings to match both beach and culture activities. It's also good for Yangon and Myanmar as well as Sharjah and Ras Al Khaimah in the Middle East.
Tis the season for Christmas markets, not to mention the start of the ski season in Europe. In the southern hemispheres, this marks one of the few times you can access Patagonia and it's just fun in the sun in Australia and South Africa.
