Travel stories by far most popular Facebook Timeline post type
August 15, 2012 | Hotel Marketing
People around the world add more stories about travel to their Facebook timelines than any other type of life event, a new Facebook survey reveals. And, the older people get, the more travel stories they share, with the age group 55-64 sharing the most.
Life never seems to slow down. Everyday, people around the globe are adding events to their Facebook timelines to mark major milestones - everything from becoming an organ donor to having a baby or even getting glasses.

Facebook's data team analyzed the types of memories shared around the world to produce this infographic, a look at life's biggest moments by location.
