Vacations used to be a time for hardworking individuals to escape the 'noise' of their everyday lives. It meant leaving the telephone, PC and fax machine safely at home or in the office for a few weeks, while telephone booths, postcards and smoke signals helped everyone keep in touch with the outside world.

These days the picture looks a little different. Instead of switching off, many travellers tend to keep in constant contact with family, friends... and strangers using social media.

Skift.com recently published this fascinating infographic detailing the way in which travellers employ the internet before, during and after their trip.

So, we'd like to know: do you stay connected or do you switch off while travelling?
