From rhadem:
TRAVELLING IS FUN because it broadens a persons horizens, teaches them of the many ways to live besides their own, and can be even life changing or goal setting for them. Travelling is like having an opportunity to see the other side of the world or of our country and to experience new things, to learn something new, to meet different people, to take a break from heavy life of School or work and to be able to share something great to someone you loved, your friends and relatives
There are many people in our country who have watched and read travel articles or shows and then sat daydreaming about the amazing places around the country like boracay,cebu and many more. By travelling to different part of the philippines, you will be able to soak up diverse cultures and lifestyles with even a short break providing you with an insight into the way in which people across the country live. A semestral or career break also gives you time out to think and evaluate your life and to relax your mind. For sure, you will have no doubt,spending your time exploring, relaxing and having fun, and take the opportunity to learn a new skill in a new environment meet different people from all backgrounds. I consider myself as a young traveller and it is already my nature to expand my Discoveries and Knowledge. Come and Join me ”Libutin and sariling atin!”

From Praline Ramirez:
Travelling is definitely FUN because like what they say, it is the best opportunity to “recharge your batteries.” You simply cannot exchange the travelling experience with mere pictures of your dream destination. YOU need to actually BE THERE to experience the thrill!
From Vernon Go:
Travelling is fun for you will always get a culture shock!

From mark:
why TRAVELLING IS FUN?
it is not about life, it is about the journey, the adventures, the ‘laags’… live like crazy todaY eveRyBodiE ^__________^
From Ethelbert:
Travelling is fun because it stimulates all my senses. It is an experiential learning at its best.
From Fleire Castro:
Why travelling is fun?? Why not! :p
Well, for one, it takes my mind of work (for a bit). It takes you to an adventure. It gives you the excitement. It gives you the chance to learn of other people’s way of life and culture. And the colors, scents and sound — they add up to your treasure chest of nostalgia — a chest of really good stories for your future apos.
From Ka Bino Guerrero:
TRAVELLING IS FUN coz travel is the best form of education. As Francis Bacon has said “Travel, in the younger sort, is a part of education; in the elder, a part of experience.”
From Jerome Locson:
Traveling is fun because of the adventures, the foods, meeting new people, learning different cultures, etc. That’s the overall experience of FUN when I travel
From Ariel Cabalquinto:
Traveling is living outside the box of your daily routines. It expands your horizons, you can do interesting things, you get to see new things, new perspectives in every adventure. Finally you can have an unforgettable bond with your travel companions.
From Kim Alvin M. Giner:
Travelling is fun because it broadens the horizon of an individual that gives an impression that there are more things to discover than the things we usually see and experience in our daily routine. Its gives us the knowledge of what we don’t know and a time and space for ourselves in spite of the affiliations we are into.
From sleepy eyes:
why traveling is fun?
simple, new adventure, new experiences, new places.
From tianexx:
it is always fun taking a risk on trying out new things, discovering an unknown place and learning from that experience – eventually you’ll grow as an individual.
take life’s adventure…travel mo, pa-ubana ko..hehe
From Kai:
It’s exciting to see new places, experience different kinds of environments, and learn about a new culture.
Travelling is fun because it simply brings you happiness.
From Keir Halasan:
I have traveled several places in the country. The FUN there is I have the chance to meet different faces with different races. I usually travel by myself and that is the most interesting part while travelling. The FUN starts right outside your doorstep and it also ends there.
From mharcia:
wow! what a nice place… i wish to come in LIBOTERO together with my friends coz we are LIBOTERA’s…. i want to experience all the adventures and see your place same as the places we’ve seen before.. so goodluck and see u there!!
From Jeremy:
Traveling brings me to the world I see in pictures, tv or movies. Traveling gives me the chance to explore endless boundaries, discover places that fascinates me and bring new adventure to my life. Traveling is fun, specially if you share your experiences and adventures to other people.
From Jewell Santos:
This is nice. i want to see more of the Philippines as much as i can, for real (not just on pictures and the net).
From Pat:
Traveling in its greater sense is about emancipating our imagination about the place: its culture, nature, people and living.It brings a new adventure which boosts someone’s self-esteem and realization in different facets about life. The unfamiliar environment gives us the concluded statement how good we are at different aspects that sometimes we tend to ignore in our everyday living and somehow is an envious thing to other. Its an appreciation in the making. We are trying to spawn the idea of getting the best of what we have. And personally, traveling gives me the movie of my life. While the bus is moving, the plane is flying,the ship is rowing, and the feet is walking, i realize the goodness and realm of possibility that bring to me where my feet is standing still. Realizing that its not how far my journey is but how i enjoy doing it presently. And the shake hands of new good friends are the rewarding memento we had. And that is really the FUN one.
From Flaviano S. Calope:
Travelling is fun because most traveled person is most educated.
From Thea Marie:
Simple lang nakakawala ng stress sa buhay at dahil dito napapangiti ka kahit papano…
From Jera:
Travelling really makes me feel relieved of all problems and tensions I encountered in my life. And that’s always the reason why it always makes me feel young and better person. I love not only to travel but to be in places where I have not been. It seems I have given myself a valuable prize after all the sacrifices I have extended to my family.
From Romel:

From jenny:
Traveling is fun for me when me and my kids seeing new places which we din’t experienced during working days. I’m a very hardworking mom then that’s the only time I got fun with my 3 kids during travel. I’m a single Mom then kids really appreciate if i can give them such time like travelling some new places. Getting my kids to know some new places, adventures as well and learning experience too knowing more about culture like people stay in that place. Wonderful really fun… How I wish I would be one of those.
From Ma. Hernila B. Halog:
It all depends on your personality and what you are looking for in a vacation. A lot of people like to travel by train for their vacation so that they can see more areas, getting great pictures, and they will be able to say they have seen all of those famous landmarks. Some people would rather pick a place and spend the whole time there, really soaking in the atmosphere with their family and getting to know the customs.
From Beautz:
I’ve explored different places in the Philippines, the fun part that I greatly love is not just discovering breathtaking places, exotic food and unique culture, but also building new friendships, cultivating relationships and falling in love again and again.I usually travel with significant others and friends, and it just so priceless sharing the joy and laughter of seeing new places and knowing that if ever we might go on with our separate lives, we will never forget that places that we visited.
From Leticia G. dela Merced:
Travelling is not only Fun, it’s bonding moments with your love ones, adventure, learning, praising God’s creation, and breathing the air of nature. I really love to travel and our country is so blessed with so many beautiful and natural places.
From carmie:
Travelling is fun simply because its adventurous and very enjoyable. You can free your mind from problems that youve encountered in everyday life. Mostly when Liberito blue water place were your first choice to travel its very so nice ambiance and so very nice place where you can forget all your problems.
From Dennis:
Travelling is fun because it is one way to realize that there are so much to discover, so much to explore, so much to learn and so much to wonder in this our unique and beautiful world.

From Jhun A. Indon :
Traveling is fun, because it will help refresh your mind.
From bebot gerasmio:
traveling makes us relax from a stressful work & refresh our mind as a teacher, i want 2 relax by just going somewhere else!!!!GO, GO, GO……..!
From aida pentecoste:
i love to travel because i want to see nature and God’s creation. I want to travel while i can still walk, sit and stand on my own and not when i am already in a wheelchair.
From Jan - Michael R. Lukban:
Traveling is fun because you get to meet and greet different people and different cultures. A large percent of people travel for leisure. Everybody longs to relax. Nobody can work like a robot. To get away from the stress and tension of their work, they usually take a few days off to visit tourist places with their families to see places and enjoy a fantastic vacation.
There are many reasons why I love to travel and why I find fun in it.I have always been curious and I’ve always had a lot of questions about faraway places and different cultures and although encyclopedias, whether online or offline, word of mouth, and geography shows on television can give me an idea, travel is really the only way to experience these distinct environments.
From JETTY PAGHINAYAN:
LOTS OF FUN WHEN TRAVELLING….YOU CAN RELAX WHEN YOU GO A PLACES THAT HAVE A GOOD AMBIANCE…HOW I WISH I AM ONE OF THOSE WINNERS COZ’ ITS MY SECOND TIME TO TRAVEL IN A NATURAL PLACE LIKE LIBERITO BLUE WATER.. MY LAST TIME OF RELAXING IS 3YEARS AGO IN PUERTO GALLERA WITH MY FRIEND….GOODLUCK!!!!

TRAVELING IS FUN because it allows us to view things through a much wider lens and appreciate the world:) For the sake of love,it’s fun to travel for hours to spend as much time as we can with our family and love of our life.
A nice sunny location with a beach might be the best getaway from stress of everyday life:)
From Ellen Sy:
TRAVELLING IS FUN! …Because it is a time when family bonds and spends precious moments together. In travelling, we discover so many things not only about the places we visited, but the culture that we get to appreciate. When I see me family so happy together because we travel together, I am COMPLETE.
