Advantages of Traveling



Travel while you're young and  able.
Don't worry about the money, just make it work.
Experience is far more valuable than money will
ever be.......

I believe it’s very important to see the world and different cultures. It open our minds to new things and we get to experience life in exciting different ways. 

Traveling gives us the opportunity to disconnect from our regular life. We  get to forget our problems/issues for a few weeks, it can also help us figure things out that we would not have understood without the distance traveling can give us. We all have crazy schedules, work and a family to take care of, going away alone or with some friends can give us distance and perhaps even make us realize how important these people are in our life. As the saying goes: we never know what we have until we lose it.

Importantly the reasons to travel is that you discover a lot about yourself.  That is why traveling is known to provide people with a whole new perspective, whether that means no longer sweating the small stuff or promising to get out there and meet new people upon returning home. Those who have left their comfort zone and headed for a foreign land have done the right thing, there is nothing challenging is  a trip to make you a new person who has no choice but to fend for yourself.  Whether alone, with a partner, or in a group, your development will speeds up when you go outside the country.

Another great benefit of travelling is the relaxation you get to do. It’s nice to live life to its fullest and enjoy a stress free time with yourself. Going on vacation lets us recharge our “batteries” by disconnecting us from our regular life. When we come back we feel invigorated and we are happy to be back in our day to day routine. It’s a very good stress remover that has a lot more to give than most people are willing to accept.

Discovering new cultures  Not only does traveling provide a sense of adventure, but it also opens doors to cultures and traditions of other countries.  You will become appreciative of other cultures; instead of  criticizing that which is "different," you will be motivated to accept new cuisine or alternative forms of entertainment.

Traveling increases our knowledge and widens our perspective. To view new customs, different ways of living is fantastic for the mind. It gives us a new perspective about life and especially our life, it can help us change some of our habits or even create new ones. When I travel I usually make it a point to try new food, some cultures don’t have fries in their diet and they are all skinny, others use spices to give taste and not oils or fats. Discovering different values and ways to get by in life is really interesting. You also need to visit exotic new places and discover what this wonderful world has to offer.

New experiences increase our resourcefulness by living situations you would never encounter at home, this is great experience for you when you come back to your routine. I have noticed that people who traveled a lot in life were ready to embrace change and have a natural ability of overcoming problems that others would frown upon.

When traveling with friends or family it creates memories for a lifetime. These memories will create a bond that nothing can erase no matter what happens with the friendship/relationship. It can also give a new perspective on the relationship and cement the bond forever. It also gives nice stories to tell people afterwards, you can create photo albums about your trips and when you feel nostalgic you can take an hour of your life and experience the trips again by looking at your pictures.

Enjoy life like never before. Even for those  who are not as culturally minded, traveling remains an appealing form of escape. Experiences can range from  watching the running of the bulls in Spain to the relaxing  and enjoying a hot spring while snow swirls around you in Iceland,  and they share one common link,  they are all memorable. In every corner of the world, there is excitement waiting for  everyone— it is simply a matter of sticking your head out and going for it. Eat like crazy, and practice some tongue on the native ladies...
