The Adapter
You are comfortable on a great many types of trips. Sometimes you you feel like an adventure, sometimes you don’t. Your travel destinations and activities vary a great deal by who you’re with and the purpose of your trip. You’re just as likely to be found sipping a drink by the pool as you are attending a cultural festival or zip-lining through the jungle. Flexibility is the name of your game.

The Explorer
You enjoy traveling to up and coming destinations, and are ok with sacrificing a little bit of comfort to do so. Visiting distant and adventurous destinations is appealing to you, but you wouldn’t mind reading a review from someone who’s been there first. You’re usually comfortable learning key phrases of another language to help you get by on your travels, as the places you’ll go don’t necessarily speak your language. Thats ok with you – its all part of the adventure.

The Trendsetter
You like to be one of the first people to visit a destination, especially among your peers. You love to be able to come home from your travels and describe your adventures to friends and family. Once other travelers start to show up in greater numbers to a destination, you seek other places to visit. You are also comfortable being uncomfortable. Traveling to a destination that doesn’t have many formal accommodations and nobody speaks your language? No problem. You are always looking for a new hidden gem, and get excited for the adventures that await you.
