Hi everyone, just thought maybe all of you can share with the rest of mylotters the places you typically go to when its a long weekend, or when you just need to go for a quick vacation over the weekend? Me and bf is thinking of going on such a getaway this coming October - i hope to find ourselves great places to go to by land travel on our travel dates.

In the Philippines, I usually go for Subic, Batangas or Tagaytay. If I want a beach, I go to Subic or Batangas. If I want somewhere cold, I go to Tagaytay.

Hello Chiyosan. How are you ? For a quick getaway, I would drive out to the Canadian Rocky Mountains, if the weather is favorable, of course. During the summer time, it is very enjoyable to drive along the highways through the Rockies, very pleasant and very scenic. There are very nice national park areas, where one can stop and relax , or play golf at some of the best golf courses !

I live in Europe and cheap flights are available. I have hopped over to France for a long weekend. I liked to visit the coast between Calais and Bolounge. I also loved popping over to Belgium. It was amazing to visit Bruges, Ghent and Ostend. These days for a quick getaway camping in Devon is really lovely.

Hi Chiyosan!. I feel really tired this week If I had long week end I will love to go to hot water spring resort. Its took 4 hours from my house, I like to go there in the night because its open pool, I will get burn by the sun if I go there in day light. I usually enjoy my time there and relaxing all that tired muscle and had great sleep when got home.

checking out hotels outside the city for me is always a good idea. normally, i go online and check the top hotels and inns of towns two to three hours away from the metro.

hmm hotels are nice, but its still within the city and i think its got less nature to the trip but thank you for the suggestion. =)

I live in a big city, so I love going to the countryside to get some fresh air and peace and quiet. It makes it easier to get some energy and to really relax. If I lived in the countryside I would probably go to a city though, haha!

Well, i usually spend my long weekend to my hometown with my family. But early of the year, i check all the long weekend and holidays so we can schedule our vacation.So we planned the places where we can go to, like Bohol and Cebu This coming December, we are planing to Camp at ANAWANGIN COVE in Zambales. I suggest you find a place just 3 or 4 hours drive away from your place. So that traveling time wouldn't be so hard. Goodluck and Happy trip.
