Places To Travel: Exotic Holiday Destinations

Travel is the enjoyable action of leaving one's place of residence for an extended trip, one which results in a totally new and exciting experience. One can keep travelling for the whole life and still there will be places left unvisited. The desire to explore and see new things is fundamental to human nature and results in travelling. Travel may be undertaken for any of the following purposes.

Business-Meetings, Trade Promotion etc.Recreation-Pleasure trips, Amusement, Vacationing, Spend free time-basically Fun.Pilgrimage-Travelling to a Holy Land or Shrine for spiritual gain.Migration-Change in place of residenceResearch-Collecting and gathering information, surveys etc.

Whichever out of the five listed above may be the reason for travelling it leaves you with a completely different view of the world. Travelling gives an opportunity for absorbing the culture of the place visited, meet people, smell the air, experiment with the local cuisine, experience the traffic, see the fashion, study the architecture, learn the history and stories, experience the local politics,-in general a completely authentic and enriching experience. Some places are visited for events like The Olympic Games, for the Scenery like Switzerland, for the Occasions like Destination Weddings/Honeymoons, for Wildlife like Africa and India, for adventure like Skydiving or Deep Sea Diving (where some amount of risk is involved).All of these give an opportunity to explore different places in the world and also provide an incredible learning experience regarding life styles, cultures, people, places etc. Foreign locales vary widely from where one is used to living and travelling gives an opportunity to find out how cultures and people live in those places.

Places have Geographical features which are exclusive and unique. Places have been around for thousands of years and have accumulated a rich history and associated culture, art, architecture and folklore. It is not possible to experience these through books or internet. The places have to be travelled to get the authentic experience. At some point in life, after college, after retirement, during business trips, during holidays, an extended trip outside your country of residence will make you see the world for yourself.

With an increasingly global economy international travel experience is an asset which can be a major advantage in a competitive situation.

There are known and important places which are frequently visited e.g. London, New York and major capitals of Europe and North America. These places have become an amalgamation of different cultures and visitors also become a part of the same. However, close to the same places and in the same countries, are less known places which have a distinct and unique culture and these exotic places are in general more fun mainly because what you see there is something new and about which not much has been written. The author writes about such places based on his personal experiences during visits to these places. Visit Places to Travel at rajeevshuklaiit.com.

Costa Rica: An Exotic and Eco-Friendly Honeymoon Escape

If you are after a truly unique destination with rainforests and beaches galore, head to Costa Rica, an exciting and secluded retreat fast becoming one of the best honeymoon destinations. Choose from an exciting range of tours and activities and relax in a unique rainforest lodge before planting a tree to commemorate your unforgettable honeymoon experience.

The remote and eco-friendly Lapa Rios Eco Lodge is set in 1,000 acres of Central America's last remaining lowland tropical rainforest. Couples can get close to nature and relax in the peaceful seclusion. Sixteen spacious suiita-thatch bungalows are nestled within the rainforest and provide complete privacy and spectacular ocean views. The interiors are simple and contemporary with warm wooden floors, two bamboo queen-sized beds or one king-sized bed shrouded with soft net and classic bamboo furnishings. Outside there is a private garden and a spacious private deck with a seating area to enjoy a cool drink whilst admiring the panoramic ocean views. Enjoy a dual-showering experience in the modern bathroom. On one side a stone-laid floor massages your feet as you shower under soft, rain-like cool water, providing the sensation of showering in your own private waterfall. A second shower offers the more conventional hot and solar-heated water with tile-floor, perfect for a relaxing cleansing after a day's hike in the rainforest.

Some of the tours are short such as the starfish walk where you can learn about the marine biology of the Golfo Dulce, one of only four tropical fjords in the world. Tour pristine waters and coconut-shaded beaches and see land crabs starfish and sea cumbers whilst still having plenty of time to relax on your return. For an extended rainforest experience, take the Wild waterfalls tour. Hike through the lush rainforest to pristine waterfalls and splash back along the Carbonera River, ideal for the more adventurous of hikers.

Or why not try your hand at kayaking, where floating in calm waters you will see a different type of forest with a spectacular variety of wildlife. Travel further along the river to the Pejeperro Lagoon and explore the wonderful world of mangroves. For the more adventurous, tour the rainforest at high speed with the thrilling Miramar canopy zip-line. Five lines stretch between five platforms winding 600m through primary forest - an exhilarating way to spend an afternoon!

Spend a morning being pampered in the tranquil setting of the rainforest. Choose from four types of unique massage and relax with nothing but the sounds of the surrounding jungle and softly breaking waves. A rainforest massage is a perfectly blissful experience available only in the best honeymoon destinations.

A special activity recommended for honeymooners is to plant a tree as part of the Lapa Rios reforestation program and leave a memory of their unforgettable honeymoon. Couples will learn about their tree, its role in the ecosystem and receive a certificate to commemorate their efforts.
