Travelling blues ...........

As we embarked into a brand new year , ( second month of the year to be exact ) , I'm sure like me , most of you will be planning your usual calendar year on the many on coming plans as planned and unexpected plans one too. As for me , I always look forward to planning a holiday at least minimum - once a year , just basically to get a good rest from this usual bustling world filled with so much of stress , noise , hectic schedules and even facing the same old people - be it at work or at play.

Travel is the change in location of people on a trip through the means of transport from one location to another. Travel is most commonly for recreation (as part of tourism or to visit friends and family), for business or for commuting; but may be for numerous other reasons, such as migration, fleeing war, etc. Travel may occur by walking or human-powered mode, or through mechanical vehicles, either as private or public transport [ but in this case - it's definitely air travel ] .
Travel may be local, regional, national or international. In some countries, non-local internal travel may require an internal passport, while international travel typically requires a passport and visa.

Anyway , coming back to this travelling blues topic , I for example have travel quite a bit myself to not many and not too little of travel destinations . Have been to places like in Asia such as Hong Kong , ShenZhen , Phuket , India ( twice already ) , western Europe ( etc. London , Zurich , Belgium , Netherlands , Paris & Germany ) , Israel - yup ! you heard me right ( of course when there was no war ) , Jerusalem and latest Egypt . From my personal opinion , I feel and understand that travelling helps us to understand and see the world with a different mindset and perspective . We not only get to meet people from different parts of the world but we also need to focus and have the desire to understand and learn more about the country , people , their way of life and living , learning a certain language or dialect , the enviroment and many other enviromental and social aspects of a country / destination. It's good to travel while still young because we may need to do alot of walking besides travelling by flight ( or ship ) to a certain country . When we are old , walking tends to be a major obstacle ( if you are elderly and fit - good for you ) so hence my advice , travel while you are still in good stamina and health.

Or and by the way , I'm in the midst of planning a travel this year , and so I was thinking , besides Australia , where else should I travel too , probably not too expensive or exquisite ............ Any suggestions ? =)
