I have travelled all over the world and i enjoy seeing new places and experiencing new cultures.
My friend has just got back from a long weekend in Denmark and she said what a beautiful place it was.
I am interested in visiting the Scandinavian countries, but they are very expensive when you get there, so it is a little off putting to be honest.

My love is America, its so diverse and there is something there for everyone, no matter what your interests you'll find something which can occupy your desires.

The British travel the world for a good holiday.

I'm English (not British) and I like travelling around the UK, France is a favourite as is New York, I would like to see more of the USA.

(Ps, I have been to Rome which was fascinating, had the best ice cream at night by the Trevi Fountain.)

Well...i stay in England and go to seaside places like Bournemouth, Poole, Cornwall, Brighton etc.. places like that.

But someday i would love to go to Japan, China, Thailand, Australia and America. :)

Italy used to be very popular with British tourists (especially places like Rimini) but you probably weren't born then

we tend to be attracted to somewhere where the weather is hot and it doesn't rain too much, where there's nice beaches, and where we get a good rate of exchange so our money goes a long way ... right at the moment the places that fit this description tend to be US (especially Florida), Spain, Thailand, Goa, Portugal, Greek Islands, Turkey

personally I don't like too hot ... this year I had a spring break in Malta which was nice, and next week I'm going for a week in the country in Norfolk ... the places I'm looking at for next year are Canada, Grand Canyon in the US, Calcutta and Darjeeling in India, or a cruise up the Norwegian coast ... I haven't a clue whether any or these plans will come to anything though

(sorry Italy isn't on my list)

Italy.
Britain is beautiful but the weather cannot be relied on and it is expensive to holiday here.

Personally I stay in the UK most years - this year I went to Spain for a week (I have family connections with Spain.)

I'm married to an Italian but have never been to Italy! I like travelling for culture but not really for a holiday - to relax I go camping in the UK (and 'cos it's cheap! and has a low carbon footprint - I'm an old hippy!)

The sensible Brits stay at home.

Brits travel all over With the Euro high against the pound placeslike Turkey are popular and of course with the $ pretty shaky the US is popular with good prices and nice people .

Sunny places....like Australia ;-)

different brits like different things. me and my family mainly go to places in Europe because the flights arent as long and tedious. This Croatia, last year northern Cyprus and Munich (Germany) The year before that Rhodes (Island just off of Greece) and Sicily (Southern Islands off Italy) And the year before that (if i remember rightly) Lake Garda (Italy) We also plan to go to new york this xmas for shopping, and Thailand next year =) oh, and we also go to france every year in July for my fathers birthday and Devon in september.

Im British, so i hope this gives you some idea as to where we go on hols.

Continental Europe, personally.

It's close by, it's warm and it has a different culture.

Poland and Denmark are too cold- we go on holiday to escape the freezing temperatures!

The Brits do like to travel. In the summer the Med is usually a favorite place, winter hols are the mountains for skiing. Florida or the Bahamas for winter sun.

I go to America each year. its cheap and the weather is good. we speak the same language so you dont have to struggle everytime you want to talk..which id have to do in Italy.
and as for not being interested in Denmark...I used to go on holiday there with my family its a beautiful country but it was always rather cold.
