Not shopping (can do at home - and people travel to my hometown to do just that)

Nightlife (not in the "club", "drink till you drop" sort of way - midnight is the limit while on vacation).

No beaches either (except as an incidental fringe benefit).

I travel for business, so my perfect holiday is sitting at home for a couple of days. During my free time on trips I like to see beautifull nature and meet new interesting people. I like learning about cultures and other ways of living (old and new), but looking at old stones doesn´t do it for me.

What are you looking when you travel

Postby restarinto » Wed Apr 23, 2008 4:41 pm

I'm looking first to the quality of the food. I like to try different foreign foods and styles of cuisines. Paris is certainly the best place on earth to try a very wide range of cuisines. And the choice of gastronomic restaurants is amazing there. Just look at this selection of chefs and restaurants :

These are some of the top names you can think of. No other city can offer that...
