Hi, my name is Mike and I'm from Canada. And I'm here to talk to you about action or relaxation on a vacation.

I think I like a balance between action and relaxation, and of course there's some vacations where all I want to do is nothing. I want to sit on the beach and just relax and maybe read a book. And there are other vacations where I want to be active. I want to go to as many places as possible, do as many tourist activities as I can, and sometimes I want to do both of those things, so I guess it just depends on my mood and depends on where I am.
