Travel Swellness: Travel sparks romance

Instead of luxe gifts and fancy candlelight dinners this Valentine’s, you might be happier to plan a vacation with your sweetie.

A new survey conducted by the U.S. Travel Association has found that couples who travel together tend to be more satisfied with their relationship — not to mention reaping the benefits of better sex and more romance even after the vacation.

And it doesn’t have to be one fancy long getaway. Even a short weekend jaunt was reported to spark romance more so than any jewelry or other gifties could.

(That’s the sunset view from Negril, Jamaica, just a few days ago…sigh).

The couple that drinks together…
