No one understands why I keep going back...

Hopefully I'll be going back for the third time this year. Most people just don't understand why I want to go back again! If people only understood what it is like! Space on Sundays, DC10 Mondays... It is such a great thing and people are just baffled as to why I want to go again. I guess I don't have to justify myself to anyone, but sometimes I don't know how to describe it to people. Does anyone else have the same problem??
 
We do understand :D

It happens to all of us.
And most people will never understand, unless they experience the island themselfs.
 
broiler, I understand your pain!

I went last year for the first time.. on my own.. and am thinking I HAVE to go back again... even if it means on my own(although I"m trying to avoid this!!)
Trying to explain to my friends, whom I thought would be well into it, why they have to go is a near impossible task, and like MyVenture said, you can't explain it to people who havent been there.

I know when I talk about my trip to friends, they just nod their head politely,listening, but actually wondering if there's something wrong with me I think :?

I know what you mean though, I feel like I have to justify a reason for going over there, especially since I don't even live in Europe. If I did, then I just see it as a short jaunt away, not even the major holiday of the year, then it almost justifiable.

When I've mentioned to some of my friends (convincing them to go however, ha ha ha!... nice try..) or fam. that I might go again, i can tell they think its a bit odd, and they think I'm some kind of mental case..( I guess they're right a bit there.. who goes all the way from canada on their own two years in a year??)
oh well.. if I sat around waiting for ppl to do things with I wouldn't have done half the things I did..and you can't wait around for ppl,just like you can't explain how amazing ibiza is.


so yeah in my long-winded response, I know exactly how you feel..but yeah people are baffled adn I figure they just don't know what they're missing!!
 
Going back for the third time next year... it's hard explaining to ppl who keep suggesting Cancun or Greece or other destinations that aren't 1/10000th of what Ibiza is... guess you can't explain to those who haven't been.

Even when talking to people who have been they dont seem to see the magic of the island, i guess some people just dont 'get it'.
Those who do though will be going back for many years! This year will be my 4th (god has it been that long!!)
 
I think peeps here clearly understand your need to go back. its all about the special atmosphere that imo - cant be found anywhere else in europE! so many happy peeps and no worries in the world, on that island!

There's certainly a certain je ne sais quoi about it. Nowhere else I've been has quite that feel, a sort of almost tangible vibrancy and sparkle in the air. That's what I get anyway.

Yeah, you're sounding like Biff Stephen.

not sure if that's a complement or not.
what i mean is that i too have to explain to my peers exactly what i'm doing here. it's more a case of what are you doing in a place full of ******* who like clubs - it must be awful.

:lol: Nah, I just wasn't sure whether you were being sarky or not.
 
I know exactly what you mean... I've just booked my 7th excursion to the magical white yesterday!! *even though it's with 2 people I don't know & blatantly can't afford it either* Now where did I put my plastic friend.......

Feed the addiction I say!! :twisted:
