Places I've been and seen

I think about Japan and America as places that I've been and I've always had a good time ion both places. Is that because I'm on vacation/holiday and so I'm more relaxed to just enjoy myself? Or is there more to it than that?

Are the friends that I have there better or just different?

Am I a different person when I'm in those countries because i have only a set amount of days and so try to do more than I normally would and so live life fuller than I do than when I'm at 'home'?
