Vacations

"Vacations" are for the working class.

I used to just like traveling to places with some interesting history and then I went on a strictly beach vacation —it was awesome!!

I have never had sex on vacation actually. I just don’t feel totally comfortable outside the US, not understanding the sex customs and such for gay men

I like vacations in gay areas—PTown, Palm Springs, San Francisco

Generally, I prefer cities with history and cultural attractions (museums, restaurants, theatre, music). But I have also just flown to an area, rented a car, and just made my way about for a week or two with no advanced reservations for lodging and decide each day what I want to do.

My next trip will be to fly to Brussels and then train from town to town (Antwerp, Ghent, Bruges, Amsterdam), then fly out from Brussels after 2 weeks.

I found Brussels to be a complete bore.

Get out fast

The older I get the more I try to take.

Partly because I can afford to more now, I get more PTO, etc. but also because at 47, I am realizing that there are some things I just probably can't do now (or I could but it would be rough), and I need to "get them in" now.

I was in Las Vegas recently, and had a good time, but one day I walked 10.93 miles. ELEVEN fucking miles in a day. The other days hovered around 7-8.

I was surprisingly fine, but I had a blister on my foot, chafing from wearing and walking in jeans for 11 miles, etc. so younger gays, do it while you can.

I generally like doing "stuff" rather than site seeing/people watching. I rode all the rides in Vegas (rarely gambled), saw shows, etc. I like to be catered to so cruises are nice for me. I do not want to save money by eating at McDonalds, doing my own laundry at an AirBNB, etc.

I am definitely not a beach or resort person. I get up in the morning and want to go-go-go .... see everything and do everything I possibly can. I once did a long weekend with a friend who is exactly the opposite – vacationing for him is sleeping in, having long, leisurely meals and sitting around people-watching. I was bored out of my mind.

I use vacations to have as much sex as possible

I’m trying to travel internationally as much as I can while relatively young and have a steady income.

I’m sure, during retirement, I’ll have to budget more

I like to have people serve my every whim and do my bidding!

I stay home and sleep. No money for travel.

I love acting like a complete jackass in front of complete strangers

I’ve done a few cruises with family but think I’m over them. Also have done a few vacations where I try to see many cities in one country.

I think it’s time to slow down and do one city per vacation

I go all over. Mexico, France, Spain, Italy, Ireland, the UK, SF, Ptown...blah blah.

If I can shove off this mortal coil having never gone on a cruise, then that's a successful life IMO. Jesus they sound just fucking awful.

Last few years, I've settled into holidays in Maine every summer. I just havent been feeling the plane rides and would rather just walk around a picturesque coastal town in sandals, eating ice cream and going to overpriced restaurants high on gummies.

WHHHHEeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee...

Traveling is overrated.
