Retired Civil Servant. Have been fortunate that my wife and I have been able to travel. Our children have moved around and consequently we have been able to go and visit them. Had this not been the case, we probably like many others, would have stayed in our own country. I love visiting the great Cathedrals, historic sites,art galleries, attending local cultural festivals and mingling with the locals. Eating the local food and shopping especially at the village markets. Tip - do learn the basic language of the country your visiting. Believe me it does get you accepted by the locals. I have found that if I converse with them in their language even if the pronunciation isn't so good they will go out of their way to help me.
