In addition to enjoying the travel and seeing new and different places, I really like seeing these places regularly.

For example, if someone told me I could have a choice of 2 weeks in London or 2 single-week trips in London, I'd immediately pick the latter. I wonder what most people would pick?

Of course, this being FT, I hope that everyone would pick the latter and then try to negotiate - well, I if I pick London for two 1-week trips, could I parlay that into 4 trips of 3-4 days each? etc etc etc

Many of us don't mind the travel part of traveling. I look at the entire trip as the vacation, not just what happens once I arrive. Others see the travel part of travel as an obstacle and their vacation doesn't start until the travel ends.
