Will you bring your laptop if you travel abroad?  email this discussion to a friend?

Supposed that you have a personal travel overseas, will you bring your laptop? I think I will bring my laptop. As I can use it to call my family and contact my friends easily. And when I am in the hotel, it can also give me some entertainment. So a laptop for me is a must. How about you?

youless,

In my case, I would definitely carry it with me on my leisure trips abroad. Besides, internet access in most of the hotels are free of charge and it is cost effective for us to communicate with our loved ones back home.

Also, in most cosmopolitan cities, there are free wireless access at restaurants, fast food chains, libraries and various public areas. So, I would sometimes carry my Blackberry along too which beats the bulky laptop for portability and convenience.

Cheers.

hi there youless,

I totally agree with you. I would also definitely bring my laptop with me cause it doesnt just give me entertainment when im bored and a way to communicate w/ family and friends but its also like a handy notebook where my important files are and most importantly some memorable photos that i keep. So, if ever i get homesick or whatsoever i could just look at these photos and i would at least feel much better.

If it is personal vacation, I will bring it abroad as I can use it to spend my time while on board.
If it is business trip, I will not bring my own laptop. If company provide one, I will bring it.

I've never brought my laptop when I've traveled but I really miss not having access. I feel cut off from the outside world without access to my email etc. The key reason that I haven't taken it is for security reasons. When you go out for a hike for instance what do you do with it. I'm not certain that I would be comfortable leaving it in the room and I certainly wouldn't want to take it with me. When we're on vacation, we're usually up early out exploring and out late enjoying some night life. We're only in the hotel to sleep. Most hotels have exercise rooms, pools, jacuzzis and pay per view movies however if you're looking for some activity.

surely i would carry my laptop with me while travelling. with internet so easily available wherever you travel its good if you carry your laptop it keeps you updated on whats happening around the world and also helps you stay in touch with your family and friends and also your work.

I don't bring my laptop when I travel. I try to bring as little luggage as possible, that is one of the reasons why I don't bring it, the other reason is that I am afraid to lose it. I sometimes miss it, but not as much as I thought I would. When I am at home I spend a lot of time online, but when I am travelling, there are so many other things to do, and that is probably why I don't really miss it that much.

This is an important point. Perhaps I can stand to lose a laptop, but I can't stand to lose the data inside. It's so important for me.
