In April, I visited Nikki Beach Koh Samui Bungalow Resort and found it very attractive. The rooms, service and almost everything were lovely there. I went there for a business meeting and after a hectic schedule, I took some days off from my meeting.I never felt alone while staying in that resort. The environment was so lovely and everything was just like what I expected from a good resort. I was simply thrilled and chilled by seeing their service and they did not let me feel lonely. The homely atmosphere and the sea side view are the most attractive things that everything is looking for in Thailand Beach Resort. Nikki Beach has exactly deliver the best of Koh samui Thailand Resort.

Well, if I could afford to travel overseas, I would. But I'd rather get to know the nooks and crannies of the USA before I go traveling more expensively elsewhere.

I live in Atlanta and we have one hostel here. The transit systems serves it via bus routes, but it generally sucks. However, I've been to youth hostels in Boston, New York City, Toronto (Canada, close enough), and couch-surfed in Philadelphia and Nashville. All were cheap and very pleasant experiences. I disagree that travel within the United States is expensive. If you know your bargain bus, train, and flight sites, you can travel very cheaply.

Abroad always seems far more romantic than home. I left the hurly burly of work and went to a small greek island of Paxos and it was superb but I guess I could have gone to some of the more remote places in the UK.
Great to see different cultures, food , smells and most of all the people. No home just does not ring my bell.
However, given the shocking exchange rate to the british pound home looks more of an option

For me, it's definitely partly the cost being on a par often with somewhere more exotic. In fact, I had friends planning a Vegas trip once that I backed out of because (and this was at least partly because of their desires on where to stay, etc.), but it was going to be expensive enough that I just felt I could go somewhere further and enjoy myself more.

Another part of the equation for me anyway is betting on seeing the closer by places later in life. International travel may not remain in reach forever! And even if it does, I'd rather sit on 12 hour flights now than when I'm 70!

I would have to agree on that. I am from the Philippines but I've never been anywhere except near the capital city (where I live) and one other island in the south. That's it. On the other hand, I've been to several countries and sometimes for multiple times.

I guess it all boils down to travelers' tendency to seek the exotic, the unfamiliar. I suppose that's the reason why people travel for leisure in the first place.
