Gemini

May 21st - June 21st
There is plenty one can say about Gemini the traveller . The less planning you do for a trip , the more fun you believe you will have . You usually love to take 4-day trips because you hate staying away from work for too long because you feel you ’ ll lose your momentum . You prefer to visit one of your many international friends around the world , but while you are there , you ’ ll also find time to paraglide off the Grand Canyon or kite surf along the Australian coral reef . It ’ s hard for someone to keep up with you because you are not one to lie on a beach all day listening to your iPod dreaming of the cocktails you ’ ll be having later . If you fall in love with a place you ’ ll probably walk into the first Real Estate Agency you find to ask them what ’ s available in the market . You are spontaneous and adventurous . Even though these are amazing traits , they may also become the driving force behind your next relocation . Well , until you find the next place that matches your hungry curiosity .

Libra

September 23rd - October 22nd
Ah , the free spirited and fun-loving Libra . You do as much travelling as a nomadic tribe . You are ready to pick up and go at any time , you have even mastered the art of ‘ travelling light ’, something believed to be an urban myth among us women of the world . Your travel companion is seldom one person , it ’ s usually a group of your closest , craziest friends who ’ ll follow you anywhere because they are guaranteed to have a great time filled with funny anecdotes and unique experiences from the Mardi Gras to the Carnival of Rio . Wherever you go you ’ ve most probably fallen in love with another kindred soul , who shares the same passions as you , goes free-climbing and bungee jumping . Your bookshelves are full of cooking books bought from every country you ’ ve been or lived in because it ’ s no secret that you love to cook for your friends and family . You make a fun and carefree travelling companion who seeks love and adventures abroad .

Aquarius

January 20th - February18th
This could have been a one-sentence description of what kind of traveller you are , fellow Aquarian . Simply put , you can ’ t get enough of it ! You enjoy a luxury holiday in a beautiful resort in Sharm El-Sheik in November as much as a backpacking trip across Latin America in February . You are adventurous and curious about the Seven Wonders of the World . Could it be that the Great Pyramids of Egypt were designed and built by aliens ? Anything is possible in your imagination . You feel that the world is your playground and you won ’ t rest until you ’ ve seen as much of the world as your budget and your boss will allow . At a dinner table you ’ re the one who dominates the conversation by sharing your travel experiences and the wonderful insights you ’ ve gained from them . Many times , your humour has helped you overcome the various mishaps which usually happens to you when you are travelling . Yes , you are the Mr . Bean of the zodiac , which is why you have so many funny anecdotes to share upon your return .
