From the Lonely Planet:

“I’m no objectum sexual, a person with ‘pronounced emotional and often romantic desire towards particular inanimate objects’, like newlywed Erika Eiffel who changed her name and held a commitment ceremony with the Paris landmark a few years back. But, like most people, I do feel a comparable attraction to places, going so far as to cheekily assign what are generally considered human attributes to explain their appeal.

This oddity crossed my mind when my editor floated the idea of writing a Valentine’s Day piece about places I would marry. My first thought was ‘Nah, too much commitment’. However, if places had faces, I would totally make out with several of them – and I’m not alone.

What follows is a list of smooch-worthy destinations, populated by me and a number of lustful contributors, including our shameless use of human traits explaining why. Don’t judge us. Infatuation makes people do and say strange things.”
