Winter is becoming more and more popular for travel. Many people are staying close to home during the summer months because many of the summer tourist destinations are simply too expensive to go to in this economic climate. But, once winter rolls around, everyone gets antsy. Whether you are looking to avoid the cold or embrace it, there are plenty of popular destinations to pick for your winter holiday.
Whistler, Canada
This is an absolute Mecca for skiers during the winter. The runs in Whistler are infamous and people come from all over the world to conquer these trails. For the more advanced skiers, there are heli-skiing tours available that are worthy of X games athletes. However, there are also runs for those of us that want to get off the mountain without a cast on our leg.

Buenos Aires, Argentina
For those of you that want to avoid the snow, this is the place. A combination of exciting nightlife and incredible food make this an ideal winter getaway. You had better bring your dancing shoes, though, because the lounges are open until the wee hours of the morning.

Winter vacations are a perfect way to break up the doldrums of the season. The sun comes up later and goes down sooner, and everyone is walking around depressed. Embrace the season and give yourself something to look forward to each winter. That December or January vacation will make it a bit easier to get through the last days of winter and give you something to look forward to each year as the summer winds down.
