Travel quotes

Like all great travellers, I have seen more than I remember, and remember more than I have seen. Benjamin Disraeli

In America there are two classes of travel - first class, and with children. Robert Benchley

Travelers never think that they are the foreigners. Mason Cooley

The traveler was active; he went strenuously in search of people, of adventure, of experience. The tourist is passive; he expects interesting things to happen to him. He goes "sight-seeing." Daniel J. Boorstin

There are only two emotions in a plane: boredom and terror. Orson Welles

In Europe, spring has truly arrived with more sunshine and temperatures that are warming just about everywhere: It's the time to take a dip in the Mediterranean on the beaches of Crete, Malta or the Balearic Islands. Scandinavia is still a little cool but the days are lengthening in a spectacular fashion that makes visits there far more agreeable. Turkey is also an ideal destination at this time of the year with warm temperatures and relatively uncrowded tourist areas.

In Asia, Cambodia, Vietnam and Nepal can still be explored comfortably but the majority of Asian countries are unpleasantly hot at this time. However, the Philippines are a great choice as the climate there is excellent at present for going from one island to another without the worry of typhoons. If you don't mind crowds it is also the perfect time to see the flowering cherry trees in Japan. If Australia tempts you then now is the perfect month to discover the delights of Sydney.

In Africa, the entire Maghreb is already hot with glorious sunshine: It's the perfect season for scouring the souks in Marrakech or getting a tan on the beaches at Djerba in Tunisia. The sun is also shining at Cap Vert and the temperatures are still tolerable at 20-25°C. It is also the beginning of the tourist season in Namibia which is gradually entering its dry season.

In America, California, Louisiana and Florida are great destinations at this time of the year as well as Central America and the Bermudas. Excellent time too for exploring New York with all it offers after the winter cold and before the summers that can be scorching.

To be avoided:

Zanzibar and Tunisia that are currently experiencing their heavy rainy seasons. The same goes for South America which is experiencing a high and disagreeable level of humidity at present.
