SNOWDONIA, WALES
Conwy
A castle-topped harbor town. Walled market streets dotted with flower boxes, mythic views of the Irish Sea.
Llanfairfechan
Gareth and Rhian opened their home, allowing a glimpse of life as a sheep farmer in the Carneddau Mountains. Golden hour excursions to photograph the wild ponies, a raucous night of oh so many drinks, story-swapping, a Mad Hatter tea party and Welsh poetry. This may have been one of my favorite experiences ever, encompassing everything I love about traveling.
