Which Mode of Travel do you Like

With the general standard of living improving and the working week becoming shorter, more and more people are able to make a holiday trip to places of interest. While many like to join package tours for convenience, I prefer to travel on my own.

I like traveling on my own not only because it gives a great of independence and freedom. Traveling on my own, I’m my own boss, and I can decide when to start on my way, where to linger a little longer and which spot can be skipped over to save energy and time for another spot. I can always adjust my plan. On the contrary, in a package tour you’re deprived of as much freedom as in a military base. At the sound of the whistle, you have to jump up from a sound sleep and hurry to the gathering place where you are collected. At the sight of the little flag waving, you must immediately take yourself away from the scenes you are marveling at and follow the guide whose sole interest is to cover all spots according to his strict schedule, regardless of the weather or your health condition.

True, you may encounter inconveniences if you travel individually, for instance, getting accommodations for the night and finding a place for meals. But nothing can be compared with the freedom which is vital to a person who takes a holiday trip mainly to escape from constrains of his routine life.
