The more I
travel, the more I realise the importance of it and how it has shaped me as a
person. Sitting in the airplane right now, with my laptop in front of me and a
great trip behind me, the inspiration to share these 5 reasons could not be
greater.1. Travel will make you a better human being. This may sound cliché but it’s true. The more you travel, the more you interact with people and cultures from totally different walks of life. Living in (or as close to) someone else’s world helps appreciate their way of thinking and ultimately makes you a more understanding and accepting person. Living in harmony is what we need!
2. Travel will help you grow, mature and learn. Traveling, especially to different countries gives you the opportunity to learn about different values, languages, ways of living, fashion, food, culture, mode of transport and so much more. Each country is a new chapter in your book and while you cover all of the topics above, each chapter has completely different contents. Read this book well!
3. Travel is good for mental health. Let’s be real, every single person lives a tough life. Everyone is trying their best to be successful, achieve their goals, run a house, raise kids and the list goes on. Travel will help you relax and de-stress from day to day life. Not having to worry about the daily logistics of life can honestly be a great blessing at times. Take a break. You deserve it J
4. Traveling is investing in life-long memories. Anyone these days can buy a bag from Louis Vuitton, but 20 years down the line, you will not be remembering the great times you had with that bag, but you will remember the beautiful memories you created while on a trip with your family, your partner, your friends or just yourself. It’s an investment always worth making.
5. Traveling is a journey of self-discovery. You may think you know yourself, however, each journey will surprise you with further clarity about yourself – your likes, dislikes, wants and future desires become more evident as you learn new things about yourself through new experiences. This may also be because travel finally gives you the time to sit and reflect about yourself. Either way, it’s always a good idea to get to know yourself.
Over all,
if I had to sum everything up, I would say travelling is super fun and always a
good idea!
Let me know
if you agree with my thoughts on @australianbytes!
Have a
great trip xx

Thanks Shivangi for reminding us the importance of something which builds deeper connections with oneself and makes us connect with people from different parts of the world. Loved the simplicity of your thoughts and well laid ideas!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much ☺️ Those are some really sweet words ❤️
DeleteAmazing article. The world needs young, beautiful and intelligent people like you. Plus your writing is lovely. Start collecting ideas and anecdotes for a book in 10 years time.
ReplyDeleteTraveling is always important because it is the best way to learn more about the world and expand your horizons. Speaking of travel. Not long ago I first learned about food tours. From the link you can find more information, consider different options and choose what seems most interesting to you. In my opinion, such events are a great option to diversify your trip.
