It’s hard to beat an escape to warmer climes when the British winter has set in. Now that so many long-haul favourites are back on the travel map, we’d like to hear where you have fled the winter months. Have you spent Christmas or new year in Australia or South Africa, basked in the warmth of the Caribbean, Thailand or Mexico, been on a safari in Kenya or a Nile cruise in Egypt, or soaked up the sun in Tenerife? The reader who sends in the best entry wins a £250 hotel voucher.
