I travel to see my daughter and grandchildren and frequently take them on outings. We don't go far and wide, but we do have lots of fun.

I travel to live my dream.

I travel because I just love exploring different places and countries, I find it fascinating.

to see new places and how other people live

I think I just want to see as much of the world as I can before I shuffle off. I have just been to Greece for the first time and enjoyed it enormously. It was a reminder that travel does indeed broaden the mind !

We travel to make the most of our time. We have had such hectic lives and now is the time for us to see a little more of the world whilst we still can!

I travel because it's wonderful. New places, new people, how else can we really learn about the world?

I travel to keep active and expand my knowledge of different cultures and cuisine.
BUT, I mainly travel to see my daughter and baby grandson in Oslo, Norway along with my brother and nieces in France

I travel because I enjoy it. I would love to travel more and see some of the places that I've longed to see for years. I particularly love to see places of beauty. Last trip was to the
Austrian Alps - wow!

The reason I travel is to see things I wouldn't ever see in my home country.

I travel for the adventure, to see new and different places and cultures and because I'm a keen photographer and want to take my own images of famous and not so famous places!

Do you know, that's a very good question. Idle curiosity in my case and because it's a rewarding thing to see new places, meet new people, get a flavour of different cultures etc.

I love to mingle with different cultures,try different cuisine, and visit old churches and monuments.

I love to travel because I want to see and experience different people and cultures, I love exploring I am not one for just lying by the pool.

I hate travelling but it's a necessary evil if you want to go on holidays

To explore the big wide world there is so much more out there

I travel to simply see the beauty and wonder of the world

The world is a big place and I have only seen (although fairly well travelled) a tiny bit of it.

I hope to keep on finding new places, sights, smells and tastes, meeting new people and understanding that we are not all the same (although the bottom line is that we really are!).

Travel is my way of relaxing with our family and dogs -exploring what we dont see and expect everyday and to expand all our horizons

I travel because it keeps me alive A bit like a shark - Stay still and die The world is such an amazing place and there is always somewhere new to explore. It doesn't have to be far away from where you live if money is tight Some of the most intriguing places can be on your own doorstep. The world is becoming more accessible and the more I see online or on TV the more I want to see for myself As I get older I have time to plan and savour each trip and look forward to each new adventure It's fun to spend time planning with a special person in your life and if there is no such person there are companies who can support solo travellers. Sometimes life can be tough so Carpe Deium and live.

I travel simply because I love to.

To visit friends and family and visit fairs and exhibitions

I like to experience different foods, see how other folks live and just get away from it all.

I travel to experience other cultures and see the world. I find it fun, relaxing and enlightening.

Travel was never a priority as we were always renovating and investing in our homes. Now I've passed the big 50 and am thinking ahead to the retirement years, travel has become the big void left to fill and I am now excited at the thought of experiencing this wonderful world we live in. I finally get that life is too short and a full life is full of memories.
