If you could design the perfect spot to sit and watch the sky, where would it be and what would it have?

A natural way to answer
I'd choose a quiet hilltop with a wide view and a comfortable bench. I'd want a warm blanket, a flask of tea, and complete peace and quiet. I'd happily sit and gaze up at the clouds during the day and the stars at night. It would be hard to head back home from a spot like that.
Key phrases to use
- gaze up — to look upward steadily for a while, often in wonder or relaxation“We lay on the grass and gazed up at the stars.”
- head back — to start returning to where you came from“It's getting dark, we should head back.”
