Are you one of those people who love to travel? I never like traveling for leisure as I live far from my work place and I feel like I already travel a lot so there's really no need to spend extra money just to go someplace else. However, I just realize lately that I need to go out not just to go to work or to go shopping, I also need to go out and enjoy! I just had a shot trip(1 night and 2 days) to Sagada and it felt great to visit such a nice place. I was tired and spent more than I expected to spend, but overall, I had a great experience. Now I can proudly tell anyone that I've seen one of the most beautiful places in the Philippines; one of God's creation right before my very eyes! What I also loved in Sagada is that you can stay connected with your families and friends, you can easily connect with the Internet(wifi or GPRS). I wasn't really expecting that, given that the place was so far, imagine, it took us 5 hours to get there from Baguio. I am already thinking which place to visit next.
Is there any place you can suggest?
Maybe I can travel internationally next year, I still need to save for that.=)

I have taken a cruise to the Bahamas and that is the extent of my "international traveling" but I have been to Louisiana, California and Arizona for leisure trips. So far that is the extent of my traveling.

Actually travel not only will make you feel relax but also you can learn many thingf from travel.When you go to some place you have never been to then you will learn something new then may be you will have a deep thinking about your life,many people upgrade themselves through travel,I hope you can be the one.

Hi mariacecilia.
I love to travel. Though I haven't been to places abroad but I would love to when I start earning. In fact going around the world seeing places makes up most of the list of my things to do in life. In my country, I have been to lot of places but the one that I remember the most is the trekking expeditions I have been wit my friends in the Himalayan mountain range, which contains world's highest peaks.
Anyways have a nice day !!

Who doesn't want to travel? Surely each one of us would love to go to different places not just for the sake of travelling but also to experience the culture of a particular place. But travelling also depends on your interest and of course, budget.
Peraonally, I love going to the beach and I think the Philippines has one of the most beautiful beaches in the world. Although Boracay is overrated and too crowded now so I suggest Bohol or Coron or if you're up for a drive, Batangas. If you're thinking of travelling internationally, visit Asian countries. Vietnam is good especially if you're into shopping since goods are really cheap there. Try Hong Kong and Macau too since its easier to go there and they don't require a visa :)

I have been to several Asian countries but never to Baguio or Sagada! I wish I would be able to have the opportunity this summer. I am really excited to have a vacation. I have longed for having one!
If I had the money now, I think I'd like to visit Medjugorje and other biblical places like joining a pilgrimage. I think that would be more than feasting with my eyes.

I love traveling also. I have recently returned from my first cruise and am researching my second. I am going to Las Vegas the end of May and Atlanta in October. In 2014, I must go see my sister in Key West, Florida.
Traveling is expensive even when one budgets. I can recommend many places in The United States but it is expensive to get here and to travel here. However, it is a great and beautiful country with so much to offer.
What do you like to do or see?
