There's a handful of places that hold a special place in my heart and Menorca is one of them.. the smallest of the Baleric islands and by far the most quiet of them, I find myself going back time and time again.. The islands are known to be major tourist destinations in the summer but for some reason Menorca is far less crowded than the rest.. and I hope it stays that way. It's a place to escape and feel isolated out in the Mediterranean.. where you drive for an hour and only see cows or horses.. no people in sight.. and an island full of diverse terrain and hidden beaches you have to hike too. To me, this place is as close as you get to heaven.
