Anne of Green Gables world on Prince Edward Island. I know it's a real place, but the movies and books made it sound absolutely lovely. So, I'd probably just be on a picnic every single day, reading, writing, and relaxing.

Many years ago, I randomly got this envelope in the mail with no return address. My name and address was handwritten, but I didn't recognize the handwriting. When I opened it up, there was a money order for a couple hundred dollars and a note that said "something to brighten your day!" And in the memo line of the money order, they'd written "ho, ho, ho!" b/c it was right around Christmas. It just so happened that I needed that money right then, but nobody knew that. I'd also recently moved, so very few people knew my new address.
The handwriting didn't match anyone's in my immediate family, and I went through everyone I knew who could've possibly sent it, and I've never figured it out. My best guess it was a random act of kindness from a stranger. Although, why they'd have my address, I don't know. But clearly they wanted it to be anonymous. And to this day, I'm very grateful to whoever they are.
So, yeah. I could see that being the plot of a mystery/romance or something.
