I'd relive my honeymoon, but this time in a Mini. Driving through California, from San Francisco, through Yosemite National Park, stopping at Lake Tenaya mesmerised, then on to Death Valley. Amazing changes in scenery and climate.

A perfect getaway is a roadtrip through America stopping off in NY for shopping, Miami for Mojitos, Memphis for the awesome Elvis Peanut butter & banana sandwich. Visit the home of country music - Nashville.....white water rafting in Colarado, Vegas for....VEGAS! Then west coast LA and San Fran. All with perfect weather, perfect music and in the company of great friends all the way

My ideal getaway would be a round the UK trip in the fabulous new MINI Countryman! As it can take all terrain's with ease, I could drive over the hills of Scotland and the beaches of Brighton with the windows down and the sound system up!

My ideal getaway would be to a tranquil, deserted South Pacific island. Somewhere where nature still rules & the wildlife are free from danger; I would have to take some musical company along with me, so Michelle would be more than welcome!

My ideal getaway would be an opportunity to experience the true colour and energy of a culture different to my own. To be submerged into new languages, new foods and new groups of people. Trying activities unique to the area and observing their world going by.

My ideal getaway would be flying off to barbardos, lying on the beach with my shades on with friends sipping on an exotic cocktail watching and hearing the waves go by while listening to michelle branch songs including some of my favourites; the game of love, everywhere and all you wanted! :) Really good summer songs! =]

My ideal getaway is a day with my MINI Cooper in the cosmopolitan city of Barcelona/Catalunya. This city is so full of vibrant life. It`s just amazing. Starting the day with a cafe con leche at cafe Zurich/Placa Catalunya. Then go shopping in the hippest shops on Passeig de Gracia. Having lunch break on the beach at SHOKO in front of Port Olympic. Spending the afternoon on Las Ramblas with a visit at the Boqueria Market. Watchind the sunset at the Mirablau Bar On Tbidabo with excellent views over this beautiful city. At 22.30 tasting great tapas at the Tapas Bar Sureny in Gracia. 1.30 dancing the night away at the Danzatoria Club. 5.30 watching the sunrise on Montjuic. That will be a GREAT day in this sizzling City.

My perfect getaway would be wherever Michelle Branch is playing. I'd travel pretty much anywhere she is to catch a gig! Ideal place would be to watch her in my favourite place in the world, which is a quiet little beach i found in New Zealand, just me, a few friends and Michelle and her guitar. Good times!
