To Travel Wide or Deep...

.....that is the question.  I guess it is a question that most travellers come across at some stage.  It is something I have had running around in my head for sometime now.

 

Time is limited, precious and we all want to make the best use of it.  BUT what does that mean when you are traveling?

 

Do you see as much as you can in the small amount of time you have?

 

...... or.....

 

Do you live as a local does and experience everyday life? 

 

 

Do you cast the net far and wide to discover where you want to come back to explore in greater detail?  Something like a tasting menu for travel, experiencing little morsels of culture.

This time we are getting to go deep and it's a very different experience.  We'v done it before, in another life before kids. 

So we are taking the time to:

• ride the metro
• family days
• festivals in the park
• joining a soccar team
• to really explore as much as we can, who knows if we would ever have the chance to come back.

 

Is either way better........or do you just do your best with what you have at that moment?
