I have been determined for the past couple of years to move away from all those Holiday programmes.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
As much as we love being sociable on holiday, part of me craves the idea of being away, staying in a hut on the beach, and maybe not seeing anyone for days apart from Jamie and the boys.
During the holiday season, Christmas specifically, it can be hard to be away from family and friends.
I'm one of these people that if I have a nice holiday - like I have had in Turkey repeatedly - I go back a lot.
We have a family holiday once a year, usually abroad, but that's it. I feel I should have holidays for my family's sake, but I'm not that adventurous.
I only get to spend about six to eight weeks in Australia now and I really miss my family and friends.
I'm lucky that most of the time I'm on location in amazing places. Most of the time, I don't need holidays, I just stop working.
Holidays are the best. I couldn't imagine being from a small family.
I work a lot abroad and have the most wonderful family and kids, but being away, you do miss out sometimes. I really hope I won't regret the choices in the future.
For years, I never knowingly went on a holiday. When I travelled, it was for work. Now I am a huge advocate, particularly to places which have amazing wildlife, such as Antarctica, India and Patagonia.
I have learned that I must take a holiday at least once each year if I want to survive!
