Seven Reasons why I love Travelling

Tweet

I’m addicted to travelling, I’d love to visit more travel destinations than I do, in fact if I could afford it, and had enough leave at work I would travel some where different ever month. I’ve decided that I want to visit four new destinations this year and these are the reasons why:Seven Reasons why I love Travelling Meeting new people I travel a lot by myself, some people would call that sad, but I love my own company, and it gives me the opportunity of meeting new people; locals especially love talking with you and helping you understand their way of life and also learning more about England. Trying the local delicacies I hate it when I see English people going into the likes of McDonalds, and FKC abroad – I much prefer to eat the local delicacies, and sample the local beers. In fact every destination I visit I try out their locally brewed beer, and have come to love beers like Mythos, in an ice cold beer jug. The atmosphere of travelling The atmosphere of arriving in a new country, watching the scenery as I take the trip to my hotel, people watching in a local bar or café. The build up of excitement as I arrive at my airport (hopefully on time) and then getting on to the plane for my journey – I just love the buzz of travelling. Learning new languages Being from Yorkshire, it’s sometimes difficult to understand us, we talk quite fast, well I do, and we don’t know when to shut up, so it’s always handy to learn some of the local language and I actually enjoy learning the basics before I travel. Mixing with the locals Whilst mixing with tourists provides a good atmosphere, you cannot beat sat in a café or restaurant surrounded by locals. You learn a lot about the language, and how they interact with other locals; I was in Torrevieja at my dad’s apartment, and we were invited to a house party, most of the guests could speak fairly good English and we learnt alot about their culture. Finding exciting attractions When I plan a trip away, I always create a list of places that I want to visit, and make sure I visit those places. There’s been times when I’ve arrived at the attraction and I’ve stood there with excitement, the Sydney Harbour bridge was one of those occasions. The memories I love taking my camera wherever I go, and I try and take as many pictures as I can, so that I can reminisce. I drive the family mad because whenever I return from a holiday or weekend trip, I get them together and show all of the photos. Why do you love travelling?
