By Clinton H. Xavier


Vacations are something that all humans enjoy. No matter what you do with your time off, it's much better than work. You can do whatever you want, and go anyplace you feel like. When we think of the average family going on the average vacation, we perhaps imagine a family of four piling in the car and driving off somewhere like Disney World or the Grand Canyon.

But the truth is that there are plenty of different kinds of vacations. Depending on your interests, lifestyle and relationship or family status, you can choose from a huge variety of vacations that will be perfect for you no matter who you are. In this article, you'll learn about just a few of them.

Most people are pretty familiar with the regular or traditional vacation. You pile your kids in the car and drive somewhere nice. You spend a week or two there, and hope everything goes all right. When you come back, you show all your photos to all your friends, and start planning next year's vacation, usually to the same place. Many families do this year after year.

One kind of vacation that is popular with active people is the sporting vacation. This is when you visit somewhere specifically for the purpose of practicing a sport. The most popular sports for this are golf and skiing. Many people also go white water rafting, backpacking and surfing.

One kind of vacation that is getting more and more popular is the retreat. This used to be only for ultra religious people, but they are being applied to many different subjects of study, from personal development to wealth creation. They are usually held in hotel conference rooms for a few days or more.

If you like to learn, then you'll enjoy an educational education. This is when you spend some time in the classroom learning something that is interesting to you. Then you have an opportunity to go outside and get some real world experience. This is popular for people who are learning a foreign language.

Vacations are a wonderful thing. Now that you know about some different kinds, you can get out there and enjoy the world.
