Where are People Traveling to?
Lauryn Chandler
         Have you ever wondered which countries around the world people are traveling to? The top ten global destinations include: United States, Spain, France, United Kingdom, Germany, Italy, Turkey, Russia, China, and Greece. These countries are some of the most frequently traveled places. One of Ravenstein's laws of migration are shown in the graph shown below. Most people who are traveling transcontinental, are people traveling by themselves. Asia- Pacific is the most common place for independent travelers to go. Latin America is where most couples go, and Europe is traveled to by families. I think people are traveling by themselves for work and better jobs. In current years companies are distributed to places around the world, so people must travel to where the other plants are located. Also, people are willing to go to other countries in order to find better job opportunities. Not many families travel to other countries all together because is can be tough to travel with them, and it can get to be very expensive. Where will you travel to and with who?

  1. This article is really very amazing to me because I absolutely positively love to travel. I have only really traveled around the United States and to Peurto Rico, but exploring other continents has always been a dream of mine. A trip to any of those locations especially Italy would be a dream come true. All of the destinations you mentioned are locations that any one would want to explore, and I wonder what are some of the least traveled to countries. It is really cool how Ravenstein's laws are easily identified even in the top vacation destinations. People love to travel where they can experience new and exotic cultures, and it is very important that people are exposed to cultures beside there own, and that is why I love travel.
