When I'm new to the place that I'm going to, I am excited to taking pictures of the view - the skyscrapers and nature's beauty. Aside from that, knowing new cultures or new languages/dialects. Plus, as a remembrance of a trip, I'm so excited of what to bring home. How about you, what excites you when you're doing to travel?

I like to sit back in the seat of the airplane and shut my eyes as it lifts off. I find that very exciting. next thing is going to the toilet. You must walk either forward or to the back of the plane. Once inside the cubicle its important not to get the seat wet. I find this Very exciting! Sometimes I even put the seat up! I can hardly wait for my next airplane trip!

It's really an exciting one. But, what excites me the most is knowing my seatmate in the plane. :)

When I travel to a different country I am excited to take photos of the lovely places I see. For example I take a lot of photos to put in another album. Then it goes on my shelf with all my other travel photos. I am excited to see all sorts of different buildings and types of architecture. It is so wonderful to be able to meet the local people and it is exciting to find out about the culture. I feel ever so excited about shopping for some costume dolls for my collection of dolls from around the world. In South Africa last year I bought a family group of dolls made from colorful beads. It is exciting to see usual coins or bank notes like I got a triangular coin and a three dollar note in the Cook Islands.

I get excited to see new things and to try new foods. Even traveling around the USA there are many different foods. For example Mexican food in Wisconsin is totally different than Mexican food in AZ. Italian food in NYC is different than Chicago.

Just like you, what excites me the most in my travel are the beautiful sceneries. Usually, before visiting a place I make a research online on where to go and what to expect. I am always excited in actually seeing the place which I've researched over the internet. I love photography and taking videos so I am always excited on the photos or videos that I can take. I love exploring a place and seeing new culture and actually learning new languages. I am always excited in meeting new people and speaking their language (although often times I can't speak their language so well, but I always try! :D) I am also excited in tasting the food in a specific place. These all excites me.

I love exploring new places when I travel. I also enjoy taking pictures when I am on vacation. I love to see all the beautiful sites and I love sharing the pictures with others later. I usually don't bring back a whole of things from vacations but I do always bring back a lot of pictures. I also love trying out new restaurants and interesting food.

That beautiful nature i can see when i'm traveling :) I live in a city. There is awful traffic here, it smells bad, air is dirty, all the noise can make you crazy, bars all around ... I love silence. I like places where you can relax and feel safe. :) And always when i got the chance to be near the nature i feel happy because of that :)
