International Travel Agency, may I help you?
Yes, my wife and I want to take a holiday this winter, to someplace warmer.
I understand. How long do you want to take?
Only a week between Christmas and New Year. That's the problem, you see.
There is no problem. We can find you a flight to Australia leaving at Christmas and coming back on New Year's Eve. And it will only cost $500 per person.
Actually, we'd like to go somewhere nearer. $1000 is a lot to spend for such a short time. How about some places nearer with few tourists?
