Advantages: loads
Disadvantages: none
I read Lookaroundcafe2?s travel questionnaire and I thought why not! Me and my boyfriend go away loads, I hope you will enjoy my attempt just as much as I enjoyed travelling!
q: how many times a year do you travel?
Four to five times a year, mostly in this country although we do try and go abroad at least once.
q: for how long do you go away
Weekend trips away in this country for a week or two when we go abroad depending on how far we travel
q: do you stay in your home country or do you go abroad
We like to do both. It?s good to go away to different countries to experience different cultures and to get the better weather.
Q: Do you organize your holidays yourself or do you go to a travel agency.
My boyfriend does all the organising and he usually surprises me, he books through a travel agent as his brother?s girlfriend works there which has its own rewards like.
Q: Do you prepare your holidays in advance by reading guidebooks and studying maps??
No, I?m a typical blonde me. I don?t read books like that, I just want to enjoy the sun, sea and totally veg out by the pool
Q: Do you travel alone/with family or friends/with an organized group
I used to go away with my parents to Spain, but now I go away with my boyfriend, but I have never travelled alone, I would be too frightened to do so, maybe when I?m older and more confident.
Q: Do you prefer the sea / mountains / plains / cities as destinations??
Definitely the sea for me, the sea is so warm and clear in other countries and there?s nothing like a swim with the fishes
Q: Do you mainly relax or are you an active holidayer
We both relax and soak up the sun. My boyfriend usually hires a car to travel around depending on the country and whether he fancies exploring, Im in his hands litrally
Q: If you go abroad do you learn at least some words of the foreign
language
No, my boyfriend can speak French but we hardly ever go away to a French speaking country so it doesn?t do him much good. I can only speak English and have never wanted to learn another language
Q: Are you interested in the cuisine of a foreign country
Yes, I will try absolutely anything except seafood, because it is so risky, especially in foreign countries. Cheese, wines, meats, fruits you name it, I?ll try it. My boyfriend never tries anything new, I do tempt him but he is not interested, give him a plate of steak and chips and he?ll be happy, typical man really!
Q: Which means of transportation do you prefer
Planes definitely, it?s the only transport that is safe and gets you where you want to go fast. I did get the chance of going on concorde but I went down with chicken pox and I had to cancel, guess I?ll never get another chance now.
Q: What kind of luggage do you take with you???
Suitcases and lots of them. I?m a girl who takes loads!
Q: Do you send picture postcards to your family and friends
Oh definitely! I?ve got a big family and they like postcards, my brother collects postcards and as we go away so much he always asks his big sister for a postcard for his collection before I go away!
I hope you have enjoyed my attempt and thanks to lookaroundcafe2 for the idea!
Happy new year to everyone
Love
Zara
