You really aren't very adventurous when it comes to holidays, are you? Maybe you are right to worry about some of the risks you face when away from home, but relax a little. If not, then you should probably just stick to package holidays in your own country.
14-19
Well, there is some spirit of adventure in you somewhere, although you don't do things without thinking about them first. You probably enjoy different types of holidays and you probably have a lot of fun too without getting yourself into dangerous situations.
20-24
Rainforests, wild animals, political crises, nothing worries you, does it? Holiday are about adventures, new sensations, excitement and anything else that is on offer. Just remember, however, not all adventures are safe and there is life after the holidays!
