Well I think memory is a powerful factor in making people return to a place again and again. We seem to return to something we like in our minds, and a place when pleasant, can conjure up great memories. So when we have the chance, we like to return to that place, time, and feeling. Life can be so unpredictable and I think going to a place of which we hold fond memories promises to be like an anchor because it has value as an environment one can control. Maybe not completely, but a place we have visited before, and enjoyed, offers less risk than somewhere we have never heard of. For me that place is perhaps England or India, the setting is different from home but at the same time exciting and new. I love to visit the same shopping markets in India and the same restaurants, because I know their styles are nice and the food is great. It's true they have sweet memories and at the same time, they are a delight for the senses.
