You know, the place that makes you smile and brings you comfort no matter what is happening at the moment. Whether it is just a place in your imagination or a place that exists in real life please share that place with us.

For me it is being by the sea. The smell of the ocean and the air, the sound of the waves and the spray of the sea and cool breeze on my face. That is and will always be my happy place. Add to that cycling by the sea and I am in heaven.

I don't particularly like the sea, however I love going to a beach that is voted one of the best in my region.

I love it there as the dog loves it too, and it brings me joy when I see him having fun digging himself into the sand.

I went camping with the dog in the area once a year since 2009 except for last year, and we went to the beach at least once during each trip.

As soon as I have my camper van, we shall go there, even if it is in winter.

My favorite haunts in this other country, you know most of them from the NIRDI thread. The heaven of my immagination is chieldhood, and I am lucky that many places involved do not change, only the people have changed as much as I have ,) [so I cannot fault them for it]
 
for me my happy place by the ocean with my family including my sweet grand daughter that would put me in a happier place any time! I miss her sweet little face (she is 5 months old), facetime just isnt the same as seeing and holding her

I've been to Moose Jaw (born and raised Edmonton) and I love my Snowbirds! My husband's whole family is from one small town or another in Saskatchewan :)
 
The small island (and golf course) I used to work on as a greens keeper. I'd sit on the beach on my breaks, and collect seashells.
There was small green tree frogs and baby garter snakes. So sweet.

Out under a starry sky where the Milky Way shows and you get a special treat like aurora borealis

Sawtell beach, north NSW coast where my parents have a beach house. Have been visiting for about 15 years, always my happy place! :kiss2:
 
Poolside under the blistering Texas Sun with my sister. Driving in my car with the jams playing way too loud, which I am missing now working from home and not driving anywhere. AND OF COURSE MY PERCH!!! My home desk next to my bedroom window will have to suffice for now and I am enjoying the distraction of the birds, squirrels, and my sisters 3 cats playing in the backyard. However I am greatly looking forward to getting back into the office.

Stay safe and well all you lovely people. =D :kiss2::wavey:
 
The physical place that most brings me comfort is the ocean/harbor/coast (photo below is Cambria, CA)

However, my truest place of comfort is found in the land of books and the written word, and right now I take great solace in these words:

In the midst of winter, I found there was, within me, an invincible summer.
And that makes me happy. For it says that no matter how hard the world pushes against me, within me, there’s something stronger – something better, pushing right back.
- Albert Camus

Taking a hike in some scenic mountains. Not an option that's open to me now (still working full time at an essential business).
 
This Whitby on the north east coast of the UK. I lived here for 5 years when I was much younger.
This is where, according to legend, Dracula arrived in the UK.
The beach is beautiful and the fishing town is full of cobbled twisty turny streets with lots of independent antique shops. There is a part of the beach that is great for fossil and whitby jet hunting.
This is my happy place!
