The World Wide Tourist market is divided into two distinct groups Laybouts who usually patronize the all-inclusive resorts and Walkbouts who seek vacations and local experiences outside the all inclusive concept.
Walkbouts are Young, maybe even young at heart, in some form of relationship, loves the outdoors, likes to explore and share other cultures and memorable experiences, seeks unique and historical travel ambiance, sophisticated in own way, brand conscious and savvy, independent in thought but will join groups of likeminded individuals, and importantly uses the internet to explore, communicate, share experiences and determine travel choices.

Walkbout exposes the pure and simple enjoyment travelers experience, from the simple things natives experience every day, to the food, music and the fun places you can visit. It’s the real essence of the destination.

Get the walkbout mug.Background: Australian. Given to us by Crocodile Dundee:
A spontaneous journey through the wilderness of one's choosing in an effort to satisfy one's itchy feet, a need to be elsewhere, the craving for the open road, that space over the horizon...yes... something like that... you can't quite touch it so you have to go find it because it's you just know it's there...Or maybe it just feels good to go walking around ... :wink: Yeah. It's WALKABOUT.

Get the walkabout mug.Related Words
A loosely planned journey or goal. Some sort of guidelines which will set you up for an adventure of highs and lows, trials and tribulations. An adventure of discovery filled with wisdom to be ascertained. A Walkabout creates the opportunity to discover the world from your own lens, and is a surefire way to realize your capabilities.
Sometimes I feel pigeonholed into other people's preconceptions of how to live a life. I'm going to go on a Walkabout and figure this shit out with my own point of view.

Get the school walkout mug.When people realize that the restaurant/bistro they enter doesn't have the buy one meal and get another meal for free deal on. So they proceed to make up an excuse and leave the premises.
The chef, the mailman and the venue manager all had a laugh when four people walked in and couldn't get free meals so they did a 2 for 1 walkout.

Get the 2 for 1 walkout mug.When all seniors in a high school, on a random day (typically near the end of the school year), at a predetermined time, get up and walkout of class. For high school students, this act represents a final grand act of rebellion at their school, which they despise so much. The better of walkouts work smoothly, without the interference of school authorities, include a big parade that disruptes the school, and is followed by a "skip day" the following day and/or an ingenius prank. The sweetest part of a walkout is when teachers and school authorities attempt to stop it and students walk all over them.
At 2:45 today, our grade had a walkout which went off smoothly, disrupting the school, and tomorrow is our skip day.
