RESULTS
Mostly As The intellectual traveller
You need to combine learning with
adventure, so go to a new placeand explore
the local culture. Book some short tours,
or even a cookery or language course, but
also allow time to relax. Don’t go on atour
with a lot of people or return to the same
destiantion each year.
Mostly Bs The adventurous traveller
You need a trip where you can have plenty
of adrenalin rushes. You might enjoy
learning new sport, such as skiing or scuba
diving. You would enjoy either travelling on
your own or joining and adventure tour.
Mostly Cs The organized traveller
You’d enjoy a structured tour or holiday
with a group of friends. Choose a
destination where the weather’s
great, the pool has a buffet, and
the gym offers massages.
