Questions & answers

Wéi dacks fuert Dir an d'Vakanz?

Normalerweis ginn ech zwee- oder dräimol am Joer an d'Vakanz – besonnesch am Summer an am Wanter. Am Summer besichen ech meng Famill an Indien, an am Wanter ginn ech mat menger Fra a mengem Jong an d'Schivakanz.

I usually go on vacation two or three times a year, especially in the summer and in the winter. In the summer, I visit my family in India, and in the winter, I go on a winter sports trip with my wife and my son.

Fuert Dir eleng an d'Vakanz oder mat anere Leit? Wat hutt Dir am léifsten?

Wou gitt Dir normalerweis an d'Vakanz?

Eis Famillje wunnen an Indien, a mir reese gär dohin, fir si ze besichen. Am Summer fuere mir am léifsten un d'Mier. Mir hunn d'Summervakanz gär; si erlaabt eis, nei Energie ze tanken. Mir entspanen eis gär um Strand a schwammen.

Hutt Dir léiwer kuerz oder laang Vakanzen? Firwat?

Natierlech hunn ech léiwer laang Vakanzen, well ech vill Saache maache wëll, wann ech ënnerwee sinn. Dat kann zwar zimlech ustrengend sinn, mee ech genéissen et, souwuel ze reese wéi och mech wärend enger laanger Vakanz ze erhuelen.

English

Do you prefer short or long vacations? Why?

Naturally, I prefer long vacations because I want to do a lot of things while I'm away. It can be quite tiring, but I enjoy both traveling and resting during a long vacation.

Wéi bucht Dir Är Vakanzen? Wat sinn d'Virdeeler dovun, online ze buchen?

Normalerweis buchen ech meng Vakanzen online. Zum Beispill buchen ech meng Reesen iwwer "Lux Tours". Dat ass praktesch, an ech ka mir och Fotoe vun den Hoteller ukucken.

English

How do you book your vacations? What are the advantages of booking online?

I usually book my vacations online. For example, I book my tours through "Lux Tours". It's convenient, and I can also look at photos of the hotels.

Wat sinn Är Critèren, wann Dir en Hotel oder en Airbnb bucht? Wat ass wichteg?

Ech mengen, de wichtegste Critère ass d'Propretéit. Ech fille mech net wuel op enger onpropperer Plaz. D'Lag ass och wichteg. Wann den Hotel gutt läit, ass et einfach, sech ronderëm ze beweegen.

English

What are your criteria for booking a hotel or Airbnb? What is important?

I think the most important criterion is cleanliness. I cannot be happy in a dirty place. The location is also important. If the hotel is well-located, getting around is easy.

Lount Dir en Appartement fir Är Vakanz? Wat sinn d'Virdeeler dovun, en Appartement ze lounen? Wann net, firwat net?

Ech lounen éischter keen Appartement fir meng Vakanz. Ech fannen Hoteller méi gemittlech a méi propper. Fir meng Fra ass d'Propretéit de wichtegste Critère. Dofir iwwernuechte mir an Hoteller, wa mir an d'Vakanz ginn.

English

Do you rent an apartment for your vacation? What are the advantages of renting one? If not, why not?

I prefer not to rent an apartment for my vacation. I find hotels more comfortable and cleaner. For my wife, the most important criterion is cleanliness. That is why we stay in hotels when we go on vacation.

Gitt Dir campéieren? Wann net, firwat net?

Ech campéiere net gär. Ech fannen et zimlech komplizéiert; et ass mir net bequeem oder propper genuch. Dofir ginn ech ni campen.

English

Do you go camping? If not, why not?

I don't like camping. I find camping quite difficult; it isn't comfortable or clean enough for me. That is why I never go camping.

Sidd Dir schonn eng Kéier op enger Croisière gewiescht? Géift Dir gär eng maachen?

Ech war nach ni op enger Croisière, awer ech géif gär eng maachen. Ech hunn d'Mier gär. Et kann een op enger eenzeger Vakanz vill verschidde Plaze gesinn. (Och wann et zimlech langweileg ka sinn, déi ganz Zäit op engem Schëff ze bleiwen.)

English

Have you ever been on a cruise? Would you like to go on one?

I have never been on a cruise, but I would like to go on one. I love the sea. You can see many different places during a single vacation. (Though staying on a ship the whole time can be quite boring.)

Wat fir Aktivitéite maacht Dir an der Vakanz?

An der Vakanz entspanen ech gär. Ech ginn op d'Plage a liesen e Buch. Ech schwammen, drénken eppes mat menger Fra a spille mat mengem Jong. Dat gefält mir immens gutt.
