Picking The Best Travel Destinations
Choosing Your Best Travel Destination
If you are planning to take a vacation, be sure to know what you
really like to do, this will make your trip more meaningful.
Mostly, travelers go for a trip that their friends recommend,
but is it what they really want? It's never too early to plan
and know what your heart desires.
It's nice to ask yourself these questions before starting to
plan your vacation; do I want to relax? Do I want adventure or a
learning experience? Do I want to get away from my job? Once you
know the answers to these questions, then you are ready to plan
your trip.
Vacations are needed for our emotional, physical and mental
balance. Vacations give a person a chance to relax, renew his
energy, and free him from his daily routine. Vacations could be
far away or close to home. Wherever the vacation may be, it does
the same thing. It is the satisfaction that is more important
than the destination.
Generally, there are some different types of travel according to
activities involved. Here are some of them:
1. Responsible Travel. Traveling doesn't always have to be
self-serving. With responsible travel, one could have enjoyment
as much as respecting the local environment and the people. 2.
Rediscovering nature. Rediscovering travel is all about nature
and everything in it. It revitalizes the soul while smelling and
feeling nature. 3. Tribal cultures. In today's world of high
technology, it is wise to experience the simpler life of the
tribal people who live close to nature in the same way for the
past thousands of years.
4. Responsible Diving. Diving not only let travelers appreciate
what is down the sea but also making the traveler more aware of
the conservation effort.
The country one is planning to travel to also
leaves a great
mark on the traveler's diary. Here are some of the most popular
destinations today:
1. Thailand. Thailand is also known as Siam. It is an Asian
country bounded by Burma, Laos, Cambodia, and Malaysia. Behind
the back draft of Thailand's jungles of bamboo, rubber trees and
vines are the Five-star hotels of modern conveniences. In some
parts of the country, elephants are still being use to lift
timbers and buffalos are still being use in farming.
2. China. China is now the second largest country and fastest
growing economy in the world. Most parts of China are still
unexplored by tourist; however, the eastern portion is now
popular to western tourist. First class hotels now offer highest
class of amenities and dozens are still being built/
3. Italy. Italy is a boot-like shape country bounded by
Switzerland, Austria, France, and Slovenia. The main attraction
of Italy is St. Peter's Square where the Pope resides.
4. Caribbean. Caribbean is an archipelago of islands, 2000
square miles across. Most of the islands are plateaus and
eruptions of underlying mountain systems. It has nice beaches of
crushed coral and white or pink sand and the water at the shore
is a deep blue.
The success of any vacation will not depend by how much the
traveler spent or its destination. It is how the traveler
enjoyed it and how he was able to achieve his primary goal of
"getting away from it all."
