Part 2: A far away place you would like to go to on a holiday. 

  • What & where 
  • What you want to do there 
  • Why you’d like to go there 

One distant destination that has always managed to captivate my imagination and holds a special place in my heart as an ideal holiday spot is none other than the breathtaking archipelago of the Maldives. 

In the Maldives, there are several activities I would love to engage in to make the most of this tropical paradise. First and foremost, I would immerse myself in the mesmerizing underwater world by snorkeling and exploring the vibrant coral reefs. I would also indulge in leisurely beach walks, feeling the soft sand beneath my feet and relishing the calming sound of the waves. I would take time to unwind and simply soak up the breathtaking surroundings along with the natural beauty of the Maldives. One of the highlights would be to embark on a sunset cruise, sailing across the azure waters while watching the sun dip below the horizon. The spectacular colors painting the sky would create a truly magical and romantic experience. The reason I am drawn to the Maldives is its unparalleled beauty and serenity. It is a place where I can disconnect from the fast-paced world and immerse myself in nature's embrace. The idea of waking up to the sound of gentle waves, basking in the warm tropical sunshine, and experiencing the ultimate sense of relaxation is truly enticing

All in all, I am eager to explore the wonders of the Maldives, engage in exciting water activities, embrace relaxation as well as wellness and lastly be surrounded by the sheer beauty and tranquility that this tropical paradise offers.

Well, As i see it, people have various options for holiday destinations in Viet Nam. One popular choice is coastal areas such as Nha Trang, Da Nang, and Phu Quoc, which offer beautiful beaches and resorts. Historical sites like Hanoi's Old Quarter, Hoi An Ancient Town, and Hue Imperial City also attract many tourists. Additionally, the mountainous regions of Sapa and Dalat are frequented by nature lovers and adventure seekers. I think the reason has something to do with the fact that these locations provide a glimpse into Vietnam's rich culture, stunning landscapes, and vibrant traditions, making them appealing holiday destinations for both domestic and international travelers. For that, those are the destinations which the Vietnamese frequently visit during their vacations.

Additionally, it promotes infrastructure development and plays a role in preserving heritage sites. On the other hand, tourism may leave a negative impact on the environment and lead to issues such as overcrowding. Furthermore, it can contribute to cultural commodification and economic leakage. Therefore, it is vitally important to achieving a balance between the benefits and drawbacks is essential for promoting responsible and sustainable travel practices.

Is it important to make travel plans? 

In my opinion, making travel plans is generally important for a smooth and well-organized trip. The reason for this is pretty simple. Planning in advance allows travelers to make the most of their time and resources. It helps in ensuring availability of flights, accommodations, and attractions, especially during peak seasons when demand is high. Additionally, travel plans also enable individuals to set a budget, research local customs and regulations, and make necessary arrangements for transportation and sightseeing. Moreover, having a well-structured itinerary reduces stress and enhances safety by providing a clear roadmap of activities and destinations. All in all, planning in advance is considered essential for traveling.

Who are more likely to make travel plans? Old or young people? 

While travel planning is not limited to any specific age group, younger people tend to be more inclined towards making detailed travel plans. By which I mean that younger individuals often have a higher comfort level with technology and online resources, which facilitates research and booking processes. They are more likely to explore various travel options, compare prices, read reviews, and use travel apps to plan their trips. However, it is worth noting that older people may also engage in travel planning, especially if they have specific preferences or special considerations such as health needs or accessibility requirements. Ultimately, the propensity to make travel plans can vary depending on the individual's personal preferences and circumstances rather than solely based on age.
