| One
of the hardest tasks when planning your travel
is choosing the destination. A little like
choosing your dream home, satisfaction is
90% achieved from location.
If
you are ready for a trip of a lifetime but
undecided about where to go, perhaps the following
tips will give you more direction?
Why choose Asia?
Asia
is an enormous continent so it is hard to
pin point exact benefits and features common
to every country but in general people head
to Asia for the gentle people, the complex
history and the religious undertones radiating
from the temples and every day life, rendering
the travel experience almost meditative. The
spicy and flavoursome food is a major plus
for most travellers who manage to have a culinary
delight with every meal, whether it is from
a street seller or a 5 star restaurant. When
it comes to scenery, Asia has it all, from
the highest mountain in the world to the most
pristine beaches.

Why
choose Africa?
Africa
remains a favourite to the true adventurer,
for those who wish to get off the beaten track
and view life in its primitive form. The circle
of life unfolds before the visitor’s
eyes in the game parks where the big 5 can
be viewed up close and personal as they hunt
for survival. The people are varied and fascinating
from the nomadic tribesmen in the north to
the cosmopolitan city dwellers in the south.
The fascinating adornments of many tribes
leave the traveller speechless and very snap
happy with their cameras. One cannot visit
Africa without noticing the sky, no where
in the world will you witness larger than
life sunsets and starry nights, many hours
are spent staring at the sky and simply reflecting.

Why choose Antarctica?
Antarctica
is the last frontier, even the cruise ships
only visit the very tip of the continent leaving
the traveller wondering what else is out there.
As comfortable as the cruise ships are, the
experience is still that of an adventure as
the journey travels over vast seas and visitors
find themselves being transported to the mainland
on zodiac boats rugged up in layers against
the Antarctica cold. At the end of each day’s
adventure though, there is always a warm meal
and a comfortable bed, something that is needed
after viewing a surreal sculptured ice landscape
and colonies of wildlife found only at the
end of the earth.

Why
choose Latin America?
A
lively land, heaving with vibrant music, colour,
food, history, culture and scenery, it’s
impossible to take in Latin America in one
visit. The backbone of the Andes bursts from
the bottom to top of South America whilst
Central America is dotted with volcanoes,
active and ancient. With such dramatic landscape
adventure activities are a plenty from scaling
volcanoes, to white water rafting, sand boarding,
mountain bike riding, hiking and horse riding
etc. Culture plays a pivotal part in the Latin
America makeup both modern and ancient. Remnants
of the past live in today’s Latino people
who burst with energy and are amongst the
most welcoming in the world living amongst
some of the most enigmatic history on our
planet.

Why
choose Europe?
Europe
is the modern and ancient world rolled into
one. A major influence on the rest of the
world as it works today, the beginnings of
European history can unfold mysteries from
around the planet, due to its continual influence
since time began. In one days drive the traveller
can pass through modern cities, ancient villages,
mountain ranges and wineries then end up on
the beach having spoken (if the traveller
is clever enough) up to 7 different languages
to the locals. Venture a little further and
the variety only increases, it doesn’t
repeat. The food in its diversity is heaven
sent leaving the traveller in danger of putting
on weight. The days in summer are endless;
the days in winter are hushed and magical.
Each day is an assault on the senses leaving
the traveller breathless.

Why choose Middle East?
The
cradle of civilisation, the Middle East is
where modern time seems to have begun. A land
covered in a variety of deserts from rocky
outcrops to sculptured cliffs and oases, the
Middle East offers the traveller a look into
the nomadic lifestyle. Then bursting out of
the sand, a myriad of mind blowing shrines,
temples and ruins still stand dating back
thousands of years, built by people like us
but with very basic tools. Visit the museums
and you can find yourself gazing at mummified
remains of people who lived over 3 thousand
years ago. The Middle East is a place where
one thinks about their own lives, influences
and future. We are on this planet for only
a short time, its time to make the very most
of it and venture a little further!

the Kumuka team as a fresh faced travel college
graduate, Annalisa could never have predicted
that 4 years later she would be a converted
traveller, enjoying camping, exotic cultures
and cerveza! When not travelling in Central
America or her beloved Europe, Annalisa can
be found in Sydney talking up a storm about
her travels.
