Advanced Travel Vocabulary in English<\/span><\/strong>
\n with Real-Life Stories<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Everybody loves traveling! I would like to share some advanced travel vocabulary in English so you can tell your own travel stories more easily.<\/p>\n

Below you can find 3 different stories encapsulating highlighted useful vocabulary and groups of words that often go together or collocations.<\/p>\n

Sharon\u2019s Travel Story: A Staycation on a Tight Budget<\/strong><\/p>\n

When I was younger, I had a real sense of adventure<\/strong>. I loved backpacking, camping in the woods, sleeping in tents and spending the evening next to the campfire. As a child, I remember trying to build a fire from scratch<\/strong> by rubbing two sticks together. I think my entire family laughed while I worked at it for an hour. Unfortunately, I never succeeded.<\/p>\n

But I do have such good memories of camping and hiking with my family. Every summer my parents would pack up<\/strong> the kids and the dog into the car, pack all our outdoor gear<\/strong> on the roof of the car and fill coolers full of food.<\/p>\n

My mom would pack all the usual stuff: trail mix<\/strong>, fruit, marshmallows to roast over the fire<\/strong>, stuff to make sandwiches, etc. We\u2019d take a road trip to the mountains in Colorado, find our spot to set up camp<\/strong> and pitch our tents near the river. I loved listening to the sound of the river at night!<\/p>\n

I haven\u2019t camped for years! Neither David nor I can take that much time off of work. It makes me a little sad that Sophie, our daughter, won\u2019t have those same memories.<\/p>\n

But last year we did do something a little fun, a little different: we had a staycation<\/strong>. The two of us could only get 4 days off of work and we were on a tight budget<\/strong>. We hadn\u2019t enjoyed everything the city has to offer for ages so we decided to just pretend to be on vacation here at home. We visited the museums, went to the theatre, we even took a day trip to the coast a few hours away for a day of sun, sand, and surf.<\/p>\n

We have some wonderful photos (and memories) of our picnic dinner watching the sunset on the beach.<\/p>\n

Lara\u2019s Travel Story: Anything All-Inclusive<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ugh! I hate planning vacations. I mean, I do love traveling but I don\u2019t want to think about it. All those little details \u2013 I can\u2019t be bothered<\/strong>!<\/p>\n

I prefer those all-inclusive<\/strong> kinds of vacations for a little R&R<\/strong>. You know, those places where all you do is show up<\/strong> and that\u2019s it.<\/p>\n

You have breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Activities, the beach, the pools, dancing. Sure, they usually cost a little more but if I don\u2019t have to plan everything then it\u2019s worth it. The only thing is you have to be careful of those hidden extras<\/strong>! I\u2019ve definitely been surprised by the final bill a few times.<\/p>\n

My fianc\u00e9 and I are talking about an all-inclusive cruise for our honeymoon. It sounds amazing but I\u2019ve never been on a ship for that long.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m a little nervous about seasickness I do love the idea of island-hopping<\/strong>. Plus the ship has a ton of amenities<\/strong> with its multiple pools, fitness centres, and restaurants. What I need to figure out is what to pack for a cruise. I\u2019m actually terrible about over packing<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Jean-Luc\u2019s Travel Story: Exotic Adventure<\/strong><\/p>\n

I\u2019m always dreaming of my next far-off, exotic destination<\/strong>. I\u2019ll go anywhere as long as it\u2019s adventurous.<\/p>\n

Last year I chartered a boat<\/strong> with a friend to sail around the Greek Islands. In the afternoons, we\u2019d pull into ports<\/strong>, dive into the water, enjoy dinner on the beach and then head back<\/strong> to the boat for the night. On really warm nights we actually sleep right on the deck under the stars<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s next? I don\u2019t know. Maybe Colombia, Peru, or Chile? I\u2019ve never been to South America and I love the idea of spending time in the Andes Mountains. Hiking in the middle of nowhere<\/strong>, you know what I mean?<\/p>\n

Those kinds of places give you such a better perspective on life<\/strong>. It\u2019s easy to forget we\u2019re all just a tiny piece of this earth.<\/p>\n

Or maybe Thailand? That\u2019s another of my bucket list<\/strong> destinations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
