Everyone loves a holiday! A little time off for some much-needed R&R (rest and relaxation) can be exactly the thing to rejuvenate and refresh from work. So if you're struggling to think of your next destination(目的地) then look no further. Don't waste time debating where to go, but let your blood decide.

Everybody has a lineage(家系). Recently, finding out more about our family origins has become popular. By the start of 2019, 26 million people had taken an ancestry DNA3 test at home, according to a report by MIT Technology Review. They believe by 2021 this number will have risen to 100 million.

This trend has been noticed by opportunistic travel operators. Some are looking to provide a service that both allows people to track their family roots and travel to the destinations where their ancestors originated from.

Airbnb, an online boarding marketplace, recently partnered with 23andMe, a DNA testing company, to offer recommendations that encourage travellers to walk in the footsteps of their forefathers. And they aren't the only ones.

The Shelbourne hotel in Dublin has its own 'genealogy butler(宗谱管家)'. Hellen Kelly offers advice to help guests track their Irish lineage using official records. This allows them to 'fill in the blanks of their Irish ancestry', she told Good Morning America.

The Conte Club, a luxury travel company. offers custom routes of travel based on DNA tests. "These experiences are about going deeper into who we really are." says Conte Club CEO Rebecca Fielding in an article in the Condé Nast Traveller. "It might be the most meaningful trip we can take."

So next time you think of going on vacation, why not take a DNA test first? Once you know how far your family has come, take the time to holiday back.

A.Take a holiday.B.Feel lively again.C.Do a DNA test.D.Return to work.

These national parks, classified as UNESCO World Heritage Sites, protect and preserve some of the world’s most beautiful natural wonders.

Wadi Rum Protected Area, Jordan

Known as Valley of the Moon, Wadi Rum is located in the south of Jordan, a little more than 60 miles south of the ancient city of Petra. As a desert landscape, it’s been the location for many space films. It’s worth spending some time overnight here—traditional Bedouin camps around the desert.

Fiordland National Park, New Zealand

A large part of this national park is uninhabited (无人居住的) and only accessible by boat or hiking trail. It’s filled with snow-capped mountains, and visitors might see fur seals, bottlenose dolphins and possibly even penguins.

Cairngorms National Park, Scotland

In the spring and summer months, it’s best to explore this part of Scotland’s eastern Highlands by foot but in wintertime, skis take over. It’s the largest park in the UK—twice as big as the Lake District National Park. With nine national nature reserves and three rivers, it doesn’t have a shortage of local wildlife. For the best places to bed down nearby, we suggest art-filled The Fife Arms and Killliehuntly Farmhouse and Cottages.

Sagarmatha National Park, Nepal

Home to Mount Everest—the highest mountain in the world at 29,032 ft—Sagarmatha National Park in Nepal is where many hikers kick-start their lifetime goal of climbing from Everest’s Base Camp.

Americans like to travel on their yearly holiday. Today, more and more travelers in the United States are spending nights at small house or inns(客栈)instead of hotels. They get a room for the night and the breakfast the next morning.

Rooms for the night in private(私人的)homes with breakfast have been popular with travelers in Europe for many years. In the past five to ten years, these bed-and-breakfast places have become popular in the United States. Many of these America’s bed-and-breakfast inns have only a few rooms; others are much larger. Some inns do not provide telephones or televisions in the rooms, others do.

Staying at a bed-and-breakfast inn is much different from staying at a hotel. Usually the cost is much less. Staying at an inn is almost like visiting someone’s home. The owners are glad to tell about the areas and the interesting places to visit. Many vacationers say that they enjoy the chance to meet local families.
