I think this thread should be titled "What are the point of holidays?". Holidays and travel are extremely different things
I did a one-month trip in Thailand last year. It was great in all. But then I went home and it was over.
Compared to living in Korea, Taiwan and Thailand (so far) it was nothing. The past 20 months have been fun as hell, and the reason is you have that feeling of permanent residence coupled with the ability to move on whenever you desire.
This may be an odd way to some it up but remember the video games 'Grand Theft Auto'?. Whizzing around on a motorcycle in the pissing Taipei rain/Slipping around in the freezing January in Seoul (etc) is like a real-life version of playing that game every day
