New Year 2010 Travel Resolution. Have you got yours?

Happy new year 2010 again. 7 days have passed. Have you got your new year resolution firmed up? Most of us have our resolution of the year but do you have any resolution for travel in this new year? I don’t think so. Most of the people set their objectives of the year normally for jobs, achievement, marriage, relationship, financial, properties or even blogging traffics. Travel plan is always the last thing we would normally think of.

Travel is always the last leisure activity to think about when only we have the time and money, and after our work or career. We don’t plan our work after travel. Not any more! For travel enthusiasts (Can I considered as one of them?), we have to plan well ahead for our travel before anything else. For budget travelers (It’s definitely me! 🙂 ), we must also plan well ahead our travel in order to get the cheapest package! Sometimes we need to book air ticket up to 10 months before to get free tickets from AirAsia! Not only that, booking accommodations well ahead could save you half the money too.

We are referring to new year resolution and not our normal wish list for travel. Travel wish list is travel destinations that you wish to visit this year and most of the time you will postpone it due to heavy work loads of your job. Travel resolution is something you have decided to achievement by this year. Some places you have decided and extremely keen to go by this year. With this travel resolution of the year, we could start planning to look for budgets air ticket, book for accommodation and most importantly, raise fund for the travel!

Vacation travel is no longer for the wealthy with lots of leisure. Vacation travel is now for anybody with resolution and good planning. You can’t wait until you have the money and time to travel. You have to plan your money and time to travel starting by today! As long as you really want to go, YOU CAN GO ANYTIME!! 🙂 Venice is sinking by 20-30mm per year! Pisa tower is declining! Corals are dying due to pollution! Great Wall is covered by thick snow now! Influenza A H1N1 is still spreading! So what are we waiting for?

Perhaps I’m the lucky one. Or I’m a travel photography lover with extremely tight budget. I have my travel resolution of this year. I’m planning for Europe tour in May and China tour in October because I want to go there to shoot plenty of photos by this year!!

Have you got your travel resolution for year 2010?
