...Wanderlust - the insatiable desire to travel the world, to sip on your favorite latte at a local cafe in Paris, or to walk among the ancient ruins in Malaysia. Then, of course, rational reasoning brings you back to reality and you put your travel plans on hold, hoping to visit these romanticised locations eventually, and never actually following through. The thing is, most trips do not require spending an exorbitant amount of money. In fact, I often find that many of the easiest ways to save money while traveling are also the best ways to truly experience the cultural nuances that make each place unique. 1. Spending money During my travels through Europe, I always budget myself by simply taking out the amount I am willing to spend in...

...Why travelling is my favorite doing… I hate to consider “my favorite things” and such as. But, if I should name a favorite activity or hobby, call it what you want, I would say travelling. I love travelling, travelling is living and living is travelling! You have to expiry meeting other cultures, if you ask me. I think it’s healthy and very educating, especially if you’re not travelling as a tourist, the charter way. I think you need to not just be around the inhabitants, but also talk with them, and maybe be on your own, live with or just visit a family. Also of course practice their cultural traditions, whether it's dancing, singing, elephant riding or… I will also claim that it will make your trip a lot better and give you the best experience, if you "have read a little lesson" from home, about the planned destination. Last school semester I went on an efterskole called Ranum efterskole, where I travelled a lot. The school was very international and connected with schools around the world. The school was filled with opportunities; so many, that it was hard to even choose between them! The school semester was split into three periods/phases, with three different majors and therefore also three different travels. For an example; in the first period I chose diving as major and therefore my travel was to Turkey, where we could take the diving certification. Besides Turkey, I went on some longer distance travels with the school. The others was to, Ghana and New York...

...Why People Travel HTT 200 Why People Travel There are numerous reasons an individual would choose to travel away from home. Couples looking for a romantic getaway may travel to a tropical location in hopes of enjoying a warm and sunny location during the cold winter months. Individuals with families will travel to visit other family members or friends who live in other parts of the world. People also travel for business purposes catching flights that will quickly take them to their destination. Many individuals travel for celebrations like weddings, births, and even funerals (Merith, 2009). My favorite reason to travel is for relaxation. My husband and I travel a few times each year for romantic getaway weekends. The pressures of our jobs, the lack of privacy in our home, and the need for a quiet place to relax without the obligations of parenthood are just a few of the reasons we have for traveling. We have a favorite hotel where we enjoy spending the weekends away. We are there so often the staff knows us by name. The property is a Wyndham historic hotel that has been restored to its former glory. The restaurant, The Dancing Goat, serves elegant meals in a cozy atmosphere and the piano bar offers a late night opportunity for dancing and romance. The candlelit tables and soft piano music create a dreamy atmosphere. This hotel is also close to the plantation house where my husband and I were married. It is a wonderful experience each time we visit...

...Homework Assignment One If I had the opportunity to spend $100,000 on travelling abroad, there would be no challenge on deciding where to go. I want to go as many places as possible in life, but I already have some countries that are on the top of my bucket list. The top places I want to go are Thailand, Peru, Costa Rica, New Zealand, Greece, and Iceland. Considering though that $100,000 dollars would go a long way, I would also want to go around France and Italy, as well as visit the United Arab Emirates. Travelling is a great chance to explore and open your mind to new people, new culture, new foods, and so much more. Thailand has been a dream of mine for many years, its vast mix of things to do and new experiences to be had make it highly appealing in my eyes. One thing that I think would be amazing to experience in Thailand is the wildlife; wild monkeys, elephants, sea turtles, and so much more. Thailand also offers such a rich...

I first started out in Boca Raton, Florida when I was a little baby and then I ended the moving in 2010, when I moved to Austin, Texas. I love traveling, whenever I see photos of my friends that travel to Europe I’m just in awe because I wish I was them. The only place I’ve been to outside the United States was Mexico.

I picked the book The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald. My favorite author would definitely be F. Scott Fitzgerald because he really surprised me with the way he described Daisy, Nick, and Gatsby. I was really excited when I heard that the book was going to be a movie. I even read the book a second time when I finished watching the blockbuster.

...site-seeing attractions in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. The three best places to visit are: Barefoot Landing, Broadway on the Beach, and Myrtle Beach Boardwalk. Barefoot Landing is a necessary visit attraction. Barefoot Landing is a beautiful place that provides events for the whole family. There is a wide variety of shopping, dining, and entertainment for the whole family. This attraction is part of the 27-acre lake that is home to nature. Barefoot Landing is located in North Myrtle Beach. Every year my family visits Barefoot Landing at least once, if not a couple of times. It’s an experience you have to explore for yourself. One of my favorite places when I go to Myrtle Beach is Broadway at the Beach. This attraction is similar to a boardwalk that is away from the beach. At Broadway at the Beach, you find everything from handcrafted jewelry to unique souvenirs. There is so much to do at Broadway at the Beach. There is shopping, dining, bars, and attractions. All of these attractions surround Lake Broadway. The Myrtle Beach boardwalk is also another favorite place to visit. This is a new attraction to Myrtle Beach within the past 3 years. It ranges over a mile long and covers from 14th Ave to 2nd Ave. This boardwalk is a little different from other boardwalks. As you may expect lots of games, and gift shops, and rides when you go to OCMD or New Jerseys boardwalks, Myrtle Beach’s boardwalk has more eating-places, hotels, and walking space than the other boardwalks do. There are...

...Nobody would ever describe me as, all over the place, which is what she refers herself as. In our families, we are both most like our mothers, as we get these divergent traits from them. Speaking of families, Antonella has three younger siblings: two sisters and one brother. On the other hand, I have none. She is more family-oriented. From her answers to certain questions, you can definitely tell she’s close to her family and loves them dearly. Antonella is the happiest with her family and going on trips is her favorite activity with them. I love you’s, from her family, are what she considers, the best things ever said to her. I’m not very sentimental like that, so I can’t relate to her responses. My family doesn’t share their affections as openly and we don’t regularly do any group activities. I would actually consider my alone time as my “happy place”, rather than time spent with family, which is quite the opposite of Antonella’s...

...My grandmother lived to travel and see new places. She has traveled to states such as Alabama, Georgia, Arkansas, Ohio, California, and many more; she has also been to another country, India. Well, last summer she decided to take both of my parents, all four brothers, one sister, and myself with her on vacation to the beautiful Smoky Mountains. We not only visited the Smoky Mountains, but also Cades Cove, Pigeon Forge, a look out peek, and some really stunning waterfalls. My most interesting memory is of my vacation to the glorious Smoky Mountains in Tennessee. The drive to Tennessee was long, but there were so many breathtaking sites on the way, especially at night when all the big cities were filled with bright beautiful lights. When we finally arrived at the condo we stayed in, and it was amazing; it had a balcony, three rooms, a kitchen, a living room, and two bathrooms. The resort that the condo was in had two very large magnificent swimming pools, a sauna, a gym, two hot tubs, and a golf course. The condo was amazing, but we didn’t stay there much, as we did activities all day. I could just not wait till the next morning to really start our vacation. The first day we woke up and went and ate a big tasty breakfast at a little restaurant that was...
