<\/a><\/p>\nJim & Therese Nutt in Budapest, Hungary, 2010 \u00a9 Insight Vacations<\/p>\n
Is there a playlist, song, album or band you particularly enjoy listening to when traveling?<\/strong><\/h3>\nJim: \u201c<\/strong>I remember an album our tour director played on the coach in Northern Spain<\/a> in 2006. It was a Spanish singer called Tamara<\/em> and the album was called Canta Roberto Carlos<\/em>. It has stayed in my memory and is regularly played on my computer.\u201d<\/p>\nIf you could design your own Insight Vacations itinerary, which destination would you choose?<\/strong><\/h3>\nTherese:<\/strong> \u201cI fell in love with Slovenia. It was one of those magical days when we flew into Ljubljana with a beautiful blue sky and the Alps in the background. We flew there after doing the forum tour of France in 2012.\u201d<\/p>\n![\"Insights](\"https:\/\/www.insightvacations.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Langre-beac-iStock-David-Crespo-Nieto-www.istockphoto.com_gb_photo_langre-beach-gm177223178-26450273.jpg\")
