It's decided ! This year, we leave our adventurous soul aside to return to the same vacation spot as the previous year... Yes, but why? According to a study conducted by Statista , the Europeans who chose, in 2015, to return to the same place mention in particular the good weather conditions, but also the quality of the accommodation, the satisfactory cultural and historical attractions or the general price level. So, if logistics seems to first explain these decisions, wouldn't there also be a part of attachment? We are curious to know the (real) answer!
Holidays are above all made for rest! Returning to the same vacation spot as in previous years firstly has several logistical advantages, you spend less time looking for the right accommodation, the right restaurants, the different neighborhoods to visit and you are (significantly) less stressed. But it's also an opportunity to expand our knowledge of the destination in question, as travel writer David Else explains to the Huffington Post:"For all travelers, I would recommend returning to destinations because it's a great opportunity to see the parts of the city or country you missed the first time. » Finally, the attachment we have to a place where we have had a good time is not to be underestimated, especially when we have been going there since we were children. The emotional bond created with the environment, but also with the locals, is difficult to undo:we feel a little “like at home”, and we do not intend to leave our place so easily! Clearly, whatever the destination, the important thing is to feel good there!
