10. You start comparing the cuisine you had on your vacation with the same food sold in your home-town
Not as good as the pasta you ate in Italy? Not as good as the Medu Vada you had in Chennai? Close, but still not as good as the dumplings you had in Sikkim? This indeed an unavoidable sign that indicates your love for travel.
Often avid travelers come back home and rush to restaurants in search of ‘that delicious local cuisine’ they tried on their vacation only to be disappointed by the drop in quality. Well, of course, your travels lead you to places where the local cuisine was undoubtedly the best in the world. To try and find a match of that in your hometown would just take away the charm of visiting that place, wouldn’t it?
As the signs of being an avid traveler are all around you, we hope that this list goes a long way in fortifying your love for travel. Go for an attractive holiday package with TravelTriangle to embrace the journey, acknowledge the wanderlust and be on the receiving end of wonderful new experiences that will change your life forever.
