1. When someone is choosing to take a holiday, the individual’s personality is most likely the biggest motivator for where they want to go and what they want to do on that holiday. If someone if married with children, their ideal holiday might be more relaxed, spending time at a resort on the ocean where you can relax with the family and get a nice suntan. On the other hand, if someone is single and looking for something more adventurous, they might take their holiday to go skydiving or bungee jumping. Also someone might take a holiday to make new friends or even a new partner. This type of person might want to spend their holiday out partying somewhere new, to enjoy more of a social scene.…

If you were to give people the option of traveling anywhere in the world, majority of people would choose beautiful vacation spots on exquisite beaches or breathtaking mountains. However, I am the opposite. If I was given a ticket that would take me anywhere in the world, I would choose to go to Haiti.…
According to Aesop " Adventure is worthwhile", and traveling is one of the best adventures that people can experience in life. Also, by going to places that you've never been open up your mind to new things, new people, and you learn from it as much as you can. In my case, I'm fortunate to have been able to visit different cities all over the world, but only two of them have completely captivated me, San Francisco, California and Miami, Florida. Even though these two cities are located in the same country, both have many differences such as in the public transportation, food-population, and lifestyle.…

Through travel we learn about ourselves and others. Camping taught me that I do not like mosquitos, Quebec taught me people from different cultures can be uncompromising, and in South Carolina I learned I’m afraid of the ocean.…
When I was a young girl, I fantasized about becoming a stewardess so that I could travel the world and visit exotic places. Unfortunately, in order to be a stewardess, one of the many qualifications years ago, was that you had to be at least 5’8” tall and I was only 5’5”. My dream of becoming a stewardess was shattered; however, it did not stop me from wanting to travel the world. I decided that if I could not be a stewardess, I would become a travel agent as they were allowed to travel to many different and exciting destinations in order to recommend these places to their clients. The one foreign destination that I would love to visit is Venice, Italy because of the romantic atmosphere, gondolas and the waterways this city has to offer its many visitors. Venice is located in the northeast part of Italy and is sited on a group of 118 small islands separated by canals and linked by…
Travelling has always been a passion of mine. Being an army brat, I find seeing new places, meeting new people and getting to know their different “traditions”, exceptionally inspiring. But having to stay and live at the places I thought I was visiting was a difficult task for me.…
The country I chose to do my geographic research paper was Fiji. Fiji is one of the the home of 330 islands, only having about one third being inhabited. Everyone dreams of the dream vacation. Arriving on one of the island’s, checking in the hotel, and seeing the ocean view. Taking walks on the beach, hiking in the forest to find hidden waterfalls, then later in the night, going to the night shows. This dream can be a reality visiting one of Fiji’s beautiful islands. All these aspects and many more is what makes Fiji an especially good and interesting place to visit including its culture and its geography.…

I will still be the same person with the exact same flaws and problems. The roots I leave will remain attached to me, no matter how hard I try rid myself of them. Everything will stay the same; only the location of my residence will differ. This sobering revelation leads me to ponder the importance of a place. Does the place that one lives in make them who they are? Or do people make the place what it is? Maybe, these two options harmonize together, like a lively string duet. Perhaps, this causes a place to contain even more significance because it is people that make a lot of land a country, a city, a neighborhood, a home. If this is true, we should ask ourselves “What kind of person do I want to be?” before we wander off into…
Every time I travel to the same place I always see it different each and every time. And every time I travel somewhere I tend to take my camera to capture the life each place has. And ever since I was little I always have been traveling to Hawaii and it's my favorite place of all times, I end up traveling 3-4 times each year to Hawaii. Hawaii is a very different place than California and that's what I like about each place, its different. Every time I visit, we go to the beach in the island of Oahu called Yokohama Beach or either to Ko’Olina and its amazing cause I’m with my family. The green mountains, lots of colorful flowers, coconut trees, the bright blue ocean and most of the sun. Unlike California, the weather is like bipolar and…
Everyone wants to take a trip to an exotic place like; Australia, Brazil, or maybe even the Dominican Republic. Its just something that is on people’s minds because they want to travel somewhere besides what they have already seen. I took that exotic trip to the Dominican Republic and it was definitely life changing. It was a different experience compared to what I had seen in the United States. Everything there was so beautiful but it was also hard to see all the poverty in some parts of the Dominican Republic.…
Several years ago I made a trip to Cape Town South Africa, and it was one of the most memorable trips of my life. The excitement of the unknown grew with each passing hour spent in the air, high above the earth. Though my sons and I had a planned five day excursion, I still couldn’t stop wondering what might still lie ahead. Would it be something about this new culture I was about to experience; or would it be something more, something about me?…
