What Is Travel?

What Do We Mean By Travel and What Does It Mean To Us

If you look up the word ‘travel’ in a dictionary, the meaning of it is this; being able to move about from place to place. Well, this is true to certain extent, we do move to a place, but when we are there we stay there and view the sights and have fun. Unless, we are touring then we would be moving about a lot, but mostly we would stay in the one place for at least a couple of days to take everything in.

What Is the Modern Meaning of the Word Travel

When travelling to new places we are experiencing new things, too. If we go to a different country, we find that their customs and way of life can be completely different to ours. Here we meet new people, and remove ourselves from the norm of everyday life. If you are adventurous you may even taste the different types of food they sell there. May be you want to move to another country, because you are interesting in learning languages. Whether we visit a beach, tourist place or stay out in the city every experience will be different.

Escaping From Our Every Day Lives

We’ve been working hard for the past 4 to 6 months, and are desperate to get away from it all and relax. Some people find they can do this at home, but others want to get away to somewhere totally different. You may be interested in learning and studying about other places in our big wide world. What a great way to this, by travelling to the wonders of the Earth. Many countries still have sites that date back to the 15th and 16th centuries, so if you are into history, this is most likely the sort of town you will visit. When living in the UK, all you seem to see is rain and bad weather. Two days are not always the same here, so we usually fly out to some warmer, exotic place to escape not only the day-to-day grind, but the weather, too.

The Adventure of Travel

We can get an adventure on our travels no matter where we go, but there are holidays that are dedicated to just that. These including horse riding, ski-ing, hiking, sports, surfing to name a few. You can visit certain holiday resorts that plan your itinerary around the activity you really enjoy.

Hiking and walking holidays can be planned for by yourselves, especially if you are wanting to tour. Many people choose to go backpacking or camping. On the other side of the coin, there are relaxing beach holidays. If you just go for the sun, and to top up that tan this is a great way to relax. Then in the evening hit the numerous bars and restaurants. This type of holiday is most suited to the younger generation.

Everyone chooses to make their holiday away from home, what they want it to be. Whether it’s chilling on the beach, sight-seeing and learning about the culture or going on an adventure. At the end of the day, you should arrive back home feeling refreshed and ready for work.

Be Your Own Fashion Icon: Enjoy the Fun and Adventure of Being Your Own Fashion Icon

Fashion designers usually set the tone for the fashion trend in every society. They design clothing they think most people will like to wear. When they want to showcase their fashion collections to the public, they cherry pick cat-walkers with certain body types and shapes to wear the clothing or outfits they want to display. The body types and shapes of these cat-walkers are often very similar, and they are not the complete representation of the body types and shapes of many men and women in any society. It is hard to find short people or plus size women or men big and tall among the cat-walkers. This group of men and women left out of fashion modeling tend not to find “models” for their clothing. Besides leaving out some fraction of the society in modeling fashion clothing, some of the clothing in the collections of some designers may not appeal to everyone. Apart from using cat-walkers to show case their fashion collections, many fashion designers rely on celebrities to wear their clothing and as such use them as “platforms” to advertise their clothing designs. Unfortunately there are celebrities that do not have good taste for fashion, they tend to wear clothing that a lot of people consider inappropriate, and for these reasons some people may opt to be their own fashion icons. They go out of their way to search for clothing fashion they deem appropriate and suitable for their body types and shapes without minding what the trending fashion is. It is a laudable and fun adventure to be one’s own fashion icon
