The structure for "feeling like" doing something

Tener ganas de

teh-NER GAH-nas dehTo feel like (doing something)

"Tengo ganas de viajar este verano."
I feel like traveling this summer.

Follows with an infinitive (tengo ganas de + verb) — an extremely common structure that doesn't map onto a single English verb, so it's worth learning as a fixed chunk.
