I am going to an out-of-town travel to participate in a contest hosted by the department which I work. This is a once in a lifetime chance to visit a beautiful place in the country so I grab the opportunity. This is an all-expense paid trip. When my boss allowed me to go, I immediately checked online for a promotional air ticket fare and reserved an accommodation before my boss changed his mind! I will be leaving next month with two of my other colleagues. It is a work related trip but at the same time I will make sure that I will enjoy the experience since this is the first time I am going to visit the place. It is going to be a 4-day stay so definitely I will be enjoying it. Bon Voyage!

I am really pleased that you have booked your air ticket. It is great that you will have 4 days away. It was clever of you to book the trip straight after speaking to you boss. Well done for finding a cheap flight and affordable accommodation. I hope that you and your work friend will have an excellent time. An all expenses paid trip sounds fantastic to me. Have a wonderful time.

Thank you maximax8! It was really a good move but I heard that the ticket cost was reduced to a lower rate right after I booked mine! Anyway, that would be good enough for me and it's a free of charge travel so I do not have anymore reasons to complain. I am sure that we will have a good time there.

I got attracted by your heading- Air tickets booked. LOL, mine too have been booked twice first of on Feb 8th then March 1st and cancelled both ties because the course I had to join did not give me particular batches for those months. I hope to book my tickets again for April 15th.

Thank you suni51. I can tell you sensed my excitement as well when I chose to have that heading. It was because I was really excited then. Good luck to your trip.

That's great! I really hope you enjoy it. Opportunities to get an out-of-town travel with everything paid are really few, so better take advantage of it!

I too enjoy trips abroad but not work related because those are too hectic. I prefer fun trips for joy and you know its not possible to mix business with pleasure. Cheers.

I love traveling. So where are you going and what is the contest all about? I just returned from a cruise and I will be going to Las Vegas in May and Atlanta in October. I am already beginning to do some research on my next cruise.

It's just a related work trip here in my country which would be my first time to visit. I wish I can travel abroad. It was long time already that I went to Singapore. Good bless your trip, my friend.

This is great! I had the same experience when I was chosen randomly from a contest I attended in my previous company. The company hosted 12 participants from its 65 different country offices and brought us to The Highlands of Scotland (where Skyfall is)! It was also my most unforgettable experience since we were accommodated in a castle :). What's more exciting is that it's an all expense paid trip, right? I'm sure you will enjoy it! Have fun!
