I travel because I love to see new places and meet new people. I'm very interested in photography so travelling to new places with my camera makes me happy!

It gives me a sense of being free ! I love trying out local food aswell

To taste the foods of the rest of the world authentically

I love to travel but as yet have not reached Hawaii, not yet.

I travel to get a change of scene and to feel uplifted

To see family who live abroad and we miss terribly

to see the culture in other places. to see how other people live

i love to travel. its an adventure every time and you get to see different cultures and ways of life.

I love seeing new places and sampling different food. I love the change in scenery but most of all the different wildlife.

To see and learn the history and culture of other countries. It's a wonderful way of learning and understanding others as well as being able to experience different aspects of our natural world we never see here in the UK.

I travel now I am semi-retired to see countries and cultures I have only seen on TV or read about, I want to start a travel blog for the over 60s to inspire people to travel, dispel myths about countries, try and inspire different methods of transport (ferries, trains (abroad and in the UK), air travel, cruise, and campervan hire). I would also love to try foods from from Asia (streetfoods, and new ingredients) , meet new cultures and try to learn a new language (well enough to got by). Life is too short, and there is a big world out there.

I travel for the pleasure of exploring somewhere new

To see the world through both my own and other peoples eyes and I regard it as a privilege to be able to do so.

Because i love to visit other countries and have a wonderful experience

We travel because we would like to see as much of the world as we can . To experience the way people live in other countries . Their whole way of life . Some times bringing their way of doing things back and incorporating them into our way of life . Also love to visit the normal touristy .

I have lived and worked around the world, but still so much to see. I love the history, culture, people, wine and food. Time to relax on a beach, pool by the villa, with family or friends- what’s not to love

I travel to explore the different cultures of the world, to see how we all live differently.

I love to see new places and explore, meeting new people on the way.

For relaxation,meeting different people,eating different foods
When we go away with our daughter and family it’s a different type of holiday, just sun ,sea,relaxation.I love both types

I love travelling because I'm curious to see the incredible monuments left by ancient civilizations. My deepest desire to see what I learn at school and walk around when possible. I want to see more, I want to learn more.

To see diverse scenery and explore new places as a family

I love to explore new places, see new countryside and beautiful places. I live a long way from the sea so the chance to see the sea is always great too! Peaceful walks in varied beautiful locations are good for the mind!

I seem to have an in-built sponge, set at 'soaking up as many of the world's delights as possible'. I adore spoiling my senses with new sights, scents, sounds and just filling myself up to the brim with memories and tales.

To escape our everyday lives

I'm a people person. I'm not so much excited by the scenery as such but I am interested in the people who live and become part of it. People are different in every country and to see their culture and way of life broadens the mind. Eating the local food and the unfamiliar aromas that abound is something I always take back home with me. Nothing beats travelling to new destinations.
