Why (not) travel? Reviews

WHY TRAVEL? I am currently travelling and have done so for the past 7 months. I have dreamt about travelling ever since I was young. All the different places in the world and wonders to be seen seemed magical to me. I thought it was unreachable and that I would only get to see any of these places in books, but last year my partner and I ...

APOLOGIES The school holidays are here and hordes of families will be travelling abroad for the summer vacation. What upsets me though is hearing someone saying "oh we are only going to Scarborough this year" or some other British resort. What is wrong with that? It is almost as though people holidaying in Britain feel as ...

Travel to places I never been to is very exciting. I am a very curious person. I want to learn new things. Do things that I have done before, go to places I haven't been to before. Going to places in the sun is enjoyable, lifestyle, food, atmosphere, the foreignness of the place. Travelling on holidays away from home and ...

I haven't travelled a great deal. I've been out of the country less than a handful of times, never outside of Europe and never for more than a fortnight. I admit that this isn't entirely down to personal choice, if I'd had different circumstances and more money I would probably have done a lot more and I'm sure I would have had great pleasure and ...

Why should people go on holiday? -------------------------------------------- Holiday is for people to take a break from their lives. Going away to a place where one normally wouldn't go. Holiday could be in this country or abroad. Although most people travel abroad because it is cheap to do so. In this country weather spoils ...

I would love to travel more. Honestly I would. However, I don't think I'm cut out for travelling far. I have been abroad a few times, and been all over the uk, but do I enjoy it? Well I would say yes, I do, but the stress leading up to it and returning is just too great. Perhaps I am alone in this. Despite meticulous ...

“Why travel?” – that’s something my late grandfather would ask me frequently. He could never understand my passion for going abroad. “I don’ t know why you go abroad so much” he would say, “I went abroad once and I didn’t like it.” It wasn’t surprising really – he was referring to World War II when his ‘adventure tour’ included ...

HOW MANY TIMES A YEAR DO YOU TRAVEL? By travel I assume the question refers to holidays because travelling could mean anything. I take one big holiday a year and several weekends with friends DO YOU STAY IN YOUR HOME COUNTRY OR GO ABROAD? Short breaks are mostly home while the week or two week holiday is always ...

HOW MANY TIMES A YEAR DO YOU TRAVEL? I would say on average 2-3 times a year, as a "holiday". I have always done a lot of short UK breaks and stuff and it would be impossible to count those. I find work is terribly inconvenient, it gets in the way of travel. For a long time though, I travelled overseas on business, which has ...

GOING PLACES LOCALLY AND ABROAD is always my cup of tea. Having a Sagittarius zodiac sign, I am really destined to explore, conquer the globe and take pleasure (and learn) from it! Why (not) travel? If you have the necessary resources (time and money), you are physically and mentally fit, and you have proper supporting documents (i.e. ...

HOW MANY TIMES A YEAR DO YOU TRAVEL? It really depends if we have a big holiday that year or not. If we have a big holiday we will not take any smaller ones. Other wise we will take several small holidays throughout the year. On average i think we have 1 holiday abroad every 18 months or so. FOR HOW LONG DO YOU GO ...

I know that challenges are something normally associated with the fluffier side of our erstwhile craft but before you lump this piece of writing in with the increasingly more visible challenges like “what’s in my handkerchief”, “top ten pointless non-celebrities” and the one word answers that read as interestingly as a telephone directory, let me ...

The sun is out, the weather is hot, no holiday booked, good that is not! I believe this is Malu's challenge, it's a great one, so thanks! HOW MANY TIMES A YEAR DO YOU TRAVEL? I travel within the UK, out of London and the South East that is, about once a month – visiting friends and family but also various ...

With the nights getting lighter and spring bulbs popping up in my garden, it is a reminder that spring is on it’s way bringing with it my first holiday of the year. As travel is my number one interest, I thought it about time that I took on the MALU challenge. So here goes: - HOW MANY TIMES A YEAR DO YOU ...

Here we go again with another one of MALU's challenges. After 'Introducing New Members' and the 'Literature' challenges, I've decided to have a go at the 'Travel' challenge. I'm unemployed at the moment (still!) which means any costly travelling is out of the question, so in my answers I'll talk about past holidays to make the answers a bit ...

NAME? Nicky AGE?: 24 Country of birth: UK. NATIONALITY?: British. HOW MANY HOLIDAYS DO YOU TAKE PER YEAR? There is currently no standard. Last year none because we bought our first home over the Summer but I have travelled a lot in the past and I hope to travel alot in the future. ...

It's a cold, snowy day over here in Sweden, so I thought I'd cheer myself up by completing this holiday challenge set by MALU. Q: How many times a year do you travel? I'm living in Sweden at the moment, so we seem to have lots of little holidays to places in Sweden, or in the nearby Scandinavian countries. We also pop back ...

Right I was catching up with my reads yesterday morning before the morning rush at work when I noticed I was really enjoying the travel reviews that were there. It was only when I had read two of them that I realized that it was the same questions been answered and then the next review of it I read that it was a challenge started by MALU. Well ...
