[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP I was similar, we spent the whole summer visiting my parents' home country every other year. When I was younger I loved it - lots of cousins, just being with my family was great etc. Then as I got older it just felt boring. And my family there got more scattered so the vibe changed. Granted my parents were not trying at all to make it appealing with fun day trips, internal travel, etc. I think for a lot of teens it's more fun to be with friends or camps that match their interests, as PP is saying. They don't appreciate "oooh living in another country" the way an adult would (I would love to go to Munich for the summer now!)[/quote] Oh and wanted to add that as I got older, my cousins were busier with school (they didn't have vacation at the same time) and their own friends etc. So frankly it was mutual - less excitement on both ends about seeing each other. Not like being 7 and running around together in a big throng exploring.[/quote]
