The A to Z of Travel meme below is partly responsible for My A to Z Blogging Challenge.
I’ve travelled a lot and wanted to answer the questions but I wasn’t sure how this meme could fit into the focus of my blog, which is about living and travelling in Portugal. Instead, I started thinking about doing an A to Z of Portugal. That idea evolved into my Personal A to Z of Portugal, which in turn grew into My A to Z Challenge and here we are.

If you decide to answer these A to Z of Travel questions, all you need to do is:
A: Age you started travelling?
B: Best beer you’ve had and where?
C: Cuisine (favourite)
D: Destinations, favourite, least favourite and why
E: Event you experienced abroad that made you say “wow”
F: Favourite mode of transportation
G: Greatest feeling while travelling
H: Hottest place
I: Incredible service you’ve experienced and where
J: Journey that took the longest
K: Keepsake from your travels
L: Let-down sight, why and where
M: Moment where you fell in love with travel
N: Nicest hotel you’ve stayed in
O: Obsession—what are you obsessed with taking pictures of while travelling?
P: Passport stamps, how many and from where?
Q: Quirkiest attraction you’ve visited and where
R: Recommended sight, event or experience
S: Splurge; something you have no problem forking over money for while travelling
T: Touristy thing you’ve done
U: Unforgettable travel memory
V: Visas, how many and for where?
W: Wine, best glass of wine while travelling and where?
X: eXcellent view and from where?
Y: Years spent travelling?
Z: Zealous sports fans and where?
By the way, I’ve tried to find out where these questions originated but I’ve had no luck so far. If anyone knows, please tell me so I can credit whoever wrote them.
Now if you’ll excuse me, I’ll go and write my own A to Z of Travel. In the meantime, why not find inspiration by reading how other travellers have answered:

Thanks for including my post
You’re welcome, Heather. And feel free to take on the Personal A to Z challenge
Thanks for finding me and including my post. 2011 was a great travel year. Heading to New Zealand end of the month so will be back on the road…yay!
You’ll have a great time, I’m sure. New Zealand is amazing, especially the South Island.
Thanks for including my post – I may well join in the personal A to Z too if I can manage to narrow down the options and decide on subject!
Hope you do, Lucy. The more the merrier!

Hi. Thanks for including me in your list. It didn’t really fit in with my travelogue either, but handily the timing worked out as an end of year retrospective.
I’ll try and fit the Personal A-Z challenge in sometime as well.
