UK, Contractor.

A 4 week long trip every 6months or so, though the last trip was 10 weeks.

3 to 4 weekend city breaks per year, most usually geared around a sporting event, festival or a friends Stag/Bachelor party.

Next big trip is a month in Brazil for the World Cup in June. Aside from that Roland Garros in May and Oktoberfest in September.

Going to Brazil during the World Cup is really a great trip :). But be careful a lot of Brazilians want to boycott the World Cup

It should be great!. I'm not overly concerned, we had our own riots and disruptions prior to the Olympics in 2012 here but when it got to the point of the event common sense prevailed and everyone seemed to get behind it.

I was in Bangkok during the riots a few years ago and then Crete during the Greek ones, just being sensible helps you navigate around those sort of things.
