I usually go on beach/adventure holidays.

Every few years I do a European tour.

Can’t get enough of Switzerland/France/Italy

Do you have set itineraries for each ruin so you can fit it all In

Always half board in a hotel somewhere warm. It varies between town/city and beach holidays though. We both really enjoy not having to think about food or housework

Usually I do culture holidays. A combination of history and randomly exploring cities.

Very occasionally I enjoy a beach holiday, swimming, touch of tennis or cricket, reading in the shade during the heat of the day.

Been about 16 years since my last. I have an IOU 1 holiday but it's highly doubtful I'll be "cashing it in" so to speak.

Time I do take off work is normally weekends when my son is visiting so I actually get to see him rather than passing ships in the night with me working and him catching up with mates.

It's a mix. A couple of places we've been have been so nice that we've been back but part of it for us is the attraction of the new. It's such a good feeling to get in an airport taxi in a completely new country.

nope. I have a rough idea of where I want to go. And often that includes things off the normal tourist routes too. As I tend to go by myself I just do whatever. I always try to go to herculaneum when I'm on the Amalfi coast and love the ruins around pozzuoli

Love holidays where can see real culture in where we choose to go. Both love museums and historical sites.

Also like to laze about in the sun, well earned respite for us both.

I don't mind slumming it holidays, as in backpacker style (as did fair bit of this on my own as have no friends) but also enjoy luxurious places for us to really indulge in each other

That is the part I like, freedom is very high on my needs. To pack a bag and go wherever is so refreshing for me.

I like driving holidays if I'm by myself, usually try to stop off to see a few friends around Europe, and visit new places as well as favourite old ones.

Short city breaks can be good too, though I find those better with someone else.

Not a huge fan of beach holidays unless its somewhere like Cap D'Agde where I'll soend a bit of time in the resort and other days head out to Carcassonne, Narbonne, and other local places.

Varies, have my two annual family getaways Jan/Feb Center Parcs then Jul/Aug Isle of Man. Usually a few UK City Breaks or camping as well.

Tend to do a European City Break every couple of years but decided as my youngest is 19 and a bit more mature that 2020 I would do more city breaks by myself (bloody typical we are now in lockdown). Managed Bruges beginning of March and my Amsterdam trip is postponed.

I am not one for sitting on a beach unfortunately the sun hates my pale skin so visiting cities and exploring along with relaxing with good food and drink is more me.

Hubby and I like to visit a new place every time we go away.

Having said that, we have been on a cruise and because you only get a day at each place, that has given us ideas of some places to go back to.

"I have an apartment in The Gambia & go there for Jan & Feb every year.

People are friendly,cost of living is cheap & it's 30 degrees on quiet beaches for me.

European city breaks when I can throughout the rest of the year.

Oh wow"

I'm very fortunate that I'm self employed & have no dependants so I can spend all winter away
