I’d love to start seeing some of your lists.  What is it that YOU love about travel?  Comment below, or even better, make your own post listing your favorite things about travel and post a link in the comments.

I hope you’ve enjoyed this series as much as I enjoyed writing it and choosing photos.  There are hundreds more things I love about travel, and I have a feeling this list will get resurrected at some point in the future.

Without further ado, here are the final 9 things that I love about travel.  And while the rest of the list was in no particular order, #1 is definitely the top thing I love about going to new places.

9.  People giving you their babies

8. Bike Riding

A favorite activity of ours anywhere in the world.

7.  Picnics

6.  Tombs

5.  Saris

4.  Terremotos

3.  Wineries

2.  Jumping pillows

And finally, our #1 reason for loving travel–meeting new friends!  We met tons of great people during our entire trip, and there were some we will be friends with forever.

1.  FRIENDS!

And that does it for my initial list of 100 Things I Love about Travel.  I really hope you enjoyed it, and I’d love to see what some of you love about travel.  Comment below, or write your own post chronicling your favorite parts of traveling.
