Sooner or later you’re going to be at the age where you don’t have the luxury of travelling wherever you want. Whether it be because you’re settling down and starting a family, or because you’re getting a bit too old and your body just isn’t cut out for proper holidays anymore. So whilst you still can, get out there and explore the world! Do all of the things you’ve never been able to do before, and probably won’t be able to do again. If you’re looking for some inspiration then check out the following destinations.
Thailand (Backpacking)
A huge craze at the minute with people of all ages in backpacking around Thailand, and for good reason. The opportunities you get will be like no other, and the islands are absolutely beautiful. Take Phuket for example. The beautiful white sand beaches are enough to draw anyone in. You can have the chance to go trekking through rainforests, and even making some friends with some rescued elephants. There’s tubing down a river which will make you feel as if you’re on a lazy river at a theme park, but 10 times better. If you’re going to Thailand you definitely need to go when a full moon party is in swing. They’re a party like no other, and memories will be made for life (if you don’t drink too much!).
Andorra
This is a firm favourite for people looking for a bit of adventure. If you’re heading the Andorra, you’re definitely heading there to hit the slopes. Andorra holidays are the perfect combination of adrenaline rushes and relaxed drinking and eating on the slopes. If you’re not going snowboarding or skiing, you’re missing out big time. As well as being an adrenaline packed holiday, Andorra is such a beautiful place to be in. There’s plenty to do in terms of history as well as hitting the slopes. Andorra is also a tax free area, so if you’re looking to do some big time shopping in a duty free area, this is your place. You’ll be shocked at what you can buy for so cheap.
Philippines
The Philippines isn’t that much of a popular destination, but there’s no reason at all why it shouldn’t be. It is full of beautiful beaches and rich culture. Again, if people head there they’re usually going for a backpacking experience. But some of the islands do make perfect couple or family destinations. It isn’t too far away from Thailand, so if you’re backpacking you should definitely hop on a short plane journey and visit, Cebu is a great part to visit. It is well established enough to have some great hotels, and the beaches are absolutely incredible. If you do go, you should definitely try out the scuba diving experience they have in the crystal blue waters. Manila is the capital and is rather popular with tourists. It is a really built up area and offers plenty of things to do in terms of tourism. There’s a marine wildlife park and a Philippines national history museum if you’re interested in the tourism side of things. No matter which part you’re heading to, you’re going to be having a great time.
