If you thought the average Indian tourist is shy and carried a holier-than-thou avatar on holiday, the recently released Kuoni Report 2011 will make you gasp in disbelief. According to international travel company, Kuoni's Global Holiday Report that covered over 12,000 holidaymakers across 12 countries, Indian holidayers are the most adventurous, seeking sex, love and romance whenever they set out. The twelve countries included in the survey were Benelux, Denmark, Finland, Spain, France, Hong Kong, India, Norway, Italy, Sweden, Switzerland and UK.

Over 75% Indians revealed that they have had sex in unusual places, while on holiday, with the beach topping the charts as their favourite spot. The report also revealed that Indians are most likely to flirt with their partner and even strangers on a holiday as compared to citizens of other countries. Not surprisingly, most Indians are likely to seek romance and sex on a holiday. "Indians rank themselves as top holiday flirts (37%). Just under a third (32%) of Indians hope for holiday romance and 34% of those aged 25-35 are most likely to feel this way," says Kashmira Commissariat, COO, Outbound Division, Kuoni India. Going by the tumultuous history between Great Britain and India, it was intriguing that Indians were most likely to befriend Britons while on holiday. The report added that Indians are likely to chat up with the British even more than with fellow Indians.

The excitement of going on a holiday can be gauged by the preparations people make for it. Women love to look the best on a holiday, with over 65 % admitting to going for a wardrobe overhaul before a vacation; over 25% admitted to dressing more fashionably. What's more surprising is that 26% of Indian men revealed they dressed more provocatively at night, when on a holiday. Exercising comes second after shopping in the holiday prep department, as holidays offer the perfect opportunity to flaunt well-toned bodies. Indians know this best as they emerged the most inclined to step up their exercise routine before a holiday. While shopping, exercising and dieting are common ways for men and women to prepare for a vacation, women look at a holiday as a way to relax, while men long for adventure. For Indians, holidays are not just ways to have fun, but also are an excellent way to connect with nature.u00a0
