3. La La Land

Get dreamy in the City of Angels

Commonly, Los Angeles is not really known for being a romantic destination. However, director Damien Chazelle managed to show LA's most peculiar and magical places through Mia and Sebastian's love story. Griffith Observatory, the Lighthouse Cafe, Rialto Theatre, Angels Flight Railway and finish off your La La Land tour with a breathtaking view of the city at Cathy’s Corner, Mount Hollywood Drive.

4. Notting Hill

Another side of London

"Of course, I've seen her films and always thought she was, well, fabulous -- but, you know, million miles from the world I live in. Which is here --Notting Hill-- not a bad place to be..." says William Thacker (Hugh Grant) as he walks down the Portobello Road Market. London is a big city that offers multiple possibilities and different paths to follow. Surprise your partner with a different trip through the colorful streets, lively markets and, of course, the Notting Hill's Bookshop.

5. French Kiss

Tour France with Meg Ryan

Meg Ryan is the queen of rom-coms but did you ever think about following her around across France like in the movie French Kiss? Starting off with a casual stroll around Paris of course, avoiding all the overcrowded and overrated spots. Then, from Gare Saint Lazare you might want to hop on a train that will cross the whole country, getting you to the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur in the very south of France. Here, you can enjoy the fascinating coastal towns or decide to spend your trip enjoying good wine in the green French vineyards.

6. Eat, Pray, Love

Finding love in Bali

However, if you're willing to find "Mr. Right", Bali might be the place for you. Take your time to bike across the rice fields, enjoy the beach at night and the colorful and lively cultural center of Ubud during the day. On this magical green island you might end up meeting your special someone! You just need three magical words: Eat, Pray, Love!

7. Call Me By Your Name

Sunny and peaceful Northern Italy

Who didn't dream of packing for a relaxing vacation in the sun kissed towns of Northern Italy after watching director Luca Guadagnino's Call Me By Your Name? This passionate but impossible love story between Elio (Timothée Chalamet) and Oliver (Armie Hammer) takes place in some incredibly beautiful, yet little known, Italian cities. Crema, Moscazzano, Bergamo are the main locations of this story and they seem to be the perfect relaxing weekend getaway if you want to get out of Milan's hustle, for example. In between Bergamo and Crema you can also find two magical small lakes from the movie: Laghetto dei Riflessi and Fontanile Quarantina, both easily reachable by bike if you want to enjoy the green Italian countryside as Elio did!

New York, New York

Jane Austen and the English countryside
