UK residents may not be overly excited about the pound losing ground against the euro and the dollar. In fact, many residents of the UK are not able to afford trips to Europe or the US as a result of the poor exchange rate. This is certainly not a situation many UK residents are pleased about, however there is a light in the darkness. This light would be the opportunity to try new things and explore new areas. For example, the pound still has enough buying power to allow UK residents to really enjoy travel to Asia.
Asia Travel Destinations Gaining Popularity
The Asian currencies are gaining in strength, however the relatively low cost of goods and services in Asia compared to the UK, means that the GB Pound will still go a long way.
So, while traveling to Europe may not be an option this summer, travelling to Thailand, Laos, or another Asian destination may be. Check out the beautiful hotels and resorts available as well as the going rates. You will see it can be quite affordable to take a tropical Asian holiday not to mention allow you to see other parts of the world.
The last two quarters have resulted in an economic mess worldwide. However, people still want to take holidays and enjoy time away from it all. Possibly now more than ever.
