The Benefits of Traveling: Why You Should Explore the World

I thought that we could talk about travelling. Do you enjoy travelling?

If answer is YES.  Ahhh, then you will probably feel the same as me about this way of life.

If answer is NO  Oh.... You must be then one of the very few people who don’t..... In any case…

I prefer to speak about the reasons why we do it and the benefits we might get when we travel. Have you been on a trip recently?

Let me tell you a bit more about the reasons why people decide to travel. Nowadays, people travel mostly for pleasure. Travelers typically choose destinations where they think they’ll feel relaxed in different ways. Other people instead prefer travelling for deeper, more conscious motivations. If you have lived all your life with the comforts of western society, for example, it’s easy to forget that life is not as easy for everyone around the world. In this case, travelling to a different country might help you put your life in perspective and find relaxation in a different way.

Ok…

After all my travels, I have a few recommendations to give to a first-time traveller. To begin with, it is really important to set up a budget and stick to it. You don’t want to run out of money, do you? Choosing the right accommodation is also a point to take into account. This place (where you’ll sleep) should not be very far from the places you want to visit or else, at the end of the day, you’ll find yourself very tired. In my opinion, it’s always good to find a room no further than 15-20 minutes away from the places you actually want to visit. Don’t you think so?

When I was 20, I went to Ireland as an au pair, and I had one of the most exciting experiences of my life. It was my first big trip alone and although it was hard at first, but I learned a lot.

I definitely think that everyone should have an experience like this at least once in their life. Everyone should live a trip by oneself because you grow up as a person, you live new experiences and, above all, you learn a lot. I’m pretty sure that if I could go back in time, I would definitely dedicate more of my time to travelling.
