With the end of the year and the holidays right around the corner, you may find yourself with lots of available time you need to take off from work. Since the cost of travel is falling rapidly, your choice of destination is limitless. Whether you want to spend your time on the slopes at a mountain retreat, or sipping Mai-Tais on the beach. This means that your ultimate choice will likely depend on the interests and inclinations of your travel companions. Here is your guide to picking the right vacation experience.
Traveling with Friends
Traveling with one to four like-minded friends is one of the best ways to travel the world and seek new experiences. This is especially true if everyone on the trip has established relationships with everyone else. Likely the only areas for disagreement can be eliminated by establishing firm radio and music guidelines while in the car. You can take the gang to a spa for a long weekend, or hit up Paris for high-end shopping and dining. It is not just for lovers!
Traveling with a New Flame
Hitting the road or air with a love interest can be a little more trickier than a spontaneous jaunt with friends. It often requires a little more planning and creativity, and tends to be a little more emotionally stimulating. If you were born and raised in different areas, consider giving each other tours of your hometown. Or find a great film festival in an exotic location. Or simply pack up your tent and sleeping bags and go camping. Consider looking at less-trafficked locations that offer recreation, shopping, and nightlife without the crowds so you are free to have a romantic, intimate experience.
Traveling with Kids
Potentially one of the most stressful traveling experience involves traveling with children under 10-12 years of age. However by being extremely well-prepared and planning for every possible need ahead of time, it is possible to navigate and still enjoy your traveling experience. Pack lots of snacks and activities for in the car or plane. Consider giving your children the choice of activity for a day while traveling to increase their buy-in, particularly for older kids.
Solo Travel
Traveling on your own can be a great way to truly absorb the culture of a place. Since you are on your own, there is no one making demands on your time, so you are free to seek out experiences you will truly enjoy. Bring a few books or your journal, and turn off your technology to get a true, restorative break from the hustle and bustle of your daily life. Consider renting a meditative cabin in the mountains where you can hike in the summer or simply watch the snow fall while you stay warm by the fire.
