Familiarity vs. Adventure. Would you prefer going to places you usually go to or try getting in to new places?

Over the years I have traveled to more than fifty different countries in the world. My favorite countries are Samoa which I visited in 2002, Australia that I first visited in 1993, New Zealand that I visited in 2001, the Seychelles that I visited in 2004 and Belize that I visited in 2006. There are so many more places in the world that I want to visit as many of these as possible. For example all the places on my travel wish list of a start. I love adventure and if I have been to a city one time the second time might not be as enjoyable. I discovered my favorite city Sydney in 1993 and amazingly it is still my top favorite. Then I discovered what was my second favorite city for years and that was San Francisco in 2001. However only in the last couple of years have I found better cities. So today my favorite cities are Sydney, secondly it is Cape Town visited in 2009 and thirdly it is Vancouver visited in 2010. I would love to travel off to South America because that would be an adventure worth having.

if time permits and money will not be an issue, it is a sure enjoyable thing to be able to travel and see new places, explore the area, learn about its culture and traditions and meet new people...going to places I usually go is comforting, however, people must go out of their comfort zone once in a while to discover things...

i totally agree with your response... that's one purpose of traveling.. meeting new people, getting to new places and learning new culture.

I want to try a new places to travel. I don't want to go to the same places except if there is a reason and the place is worth to visit again.

i like going to new places. i like exploring and finding sites, although i don't like doing it on my own. that would be scary. but it's fun doing it with friends. i like coming back to place that i've been to though, to experience it more.

I would go for the places I haven't visited yet. I like the feeling of not knowing where to go and having people to interact with me even there is a language barrier. I like learning about a certain place and at the same time experiencing it. And I like the feeling of getting lost sometime and try your way back to your comfort zone. I would also love to go to places that I have been to but just to enjoy it with the people I wanna be with.
