Many of its permanent residents are foreigners. , Spain Spain, Span.

"Lazy" is a totally new concept. It is based on the premise that not everyone in a family or couple has the same wants or needs from a holiday. Nicholas Rhodes, President of Luxury Options, comments "The idea stemmed stemmed  
adj.
1. Having the stems removed.

2. Provided with a stem or a specific type of stem. Often used in combination: stemmed goblets; long-stemmed roses.
 from my own experiences - when I go on holiday, I want to relax with a good book on the beach but my wife wants to go out shopping, sightseeing etc. Therefore when we look at possible destinations, we always have to find the right balance. And when you mix in our teenage children, it gets even more complicated. Talking with friends and our own travel clients, we found that we were not alone with these issues ! The Lazy Traveller is a humorous and candid can·did  
adj.
1. Free from prejudice; impartial.

2. Characterized by openness and sincerity of expression; unreservedly straightforward: In private, I gave them my candid opinion.
 site aimed at helping inform prospective travelers about their destinations and the suitability for a well balanced holiday experience."

In a further innovation, "Lazy" also invites other Lazy Travellers to submit their reports. If selected, and once rewritten into the "Lazy" style, the article will be published with a credit to the author. The author will receive a small payment or travel credit for his report.

Nicholas Rhodes continues "When we started our flagship Marbella Options (http://www.marbellaoptions.com) we found that luxury travelers are very keen to share their experiences. That is normal, but what we saw was a more complicated trend - each member of the family has a different expectation and different opinion. We learnt more with our South American operation 'South American' operation Surgical oncology A radical operation for 'frozen' pelvis, which consists of en bloc resection of the uterus and rectum. See Frozen pelvis. Cf 'All-American' and 'North American' operations.  (http://www.latinoptions.com) that even though one member would be super happy, another member may feel bored, or unfilled. It is all down to a complicated mix of information and expectation."

The Lazy Traveller (http://www.thelazytraveller.com) will attempt to remedy this problem while giving the reader a good chuckle chuck·le  
intr.v. chuck·led, chuck·ling, chuck·les
1. To laugh quietly or to oneself.

2. To cluck or chuck, as a hen.
