Add up your answers to find your results.
If you answered mostly A’s – Some people travel for stimulation – not you, not this year. You need to press pause on life, take a breather and recharge your batteries. Plan an easygoing vacation to an island or coastal region with plenty of beach time and mai tais. Bring a new book and escape as long as you can go. You deserve it!
If you answered mostly B’s – You are ready for a true adventure. Book that trip you’ve always wanted to take, and explore a culture that’s totally different from your own. Go bungalow hopping in Thailand, try Peru on for size, or immerse yourself in the colorful markets of Morocco. Sign up for an eco-tour or volunteer in a foreign country.
If you answered mostly C’s – Let’s face it: you’re firmly in family vacationland. Embrace it! Pile up the station wagon and head to a lakeside cabin, oceanfront resort, or forested campground to spend some time with your kids and make memories that will last a lifetime. Let your kids see you having fun and making play a priority.
If you answered mostly D’s – You are sentimental and are craving a romantic rendezvous. Jet away to Paris for the weekend, plan an escape to New York City or head into the mountains and find a hideaway cabin with your special someone. Unattached? Sign up for a dating service or try to meet someone online – life is too beautiful not to share it with someone.
