Travelling is wonderful in many ways.
⒈You'll find a new purpose.
As you travel, you re exposed to new people, cultures and lifestyles. With all the newness in your life, you're also opened to new insights, ways of seeing the world and living, which often give people a purpose for their lives.
⒉You'll appreciate your home more.
Each travel has its advantages. If you visit better countries, you may learn to improve your own. And if fortune carries you to worse ones, you may learn to enjoy your own. In some parts of the world, like India and Uganda, people don't have as much access to clean drinking water. Travelling through areas like that really makes you appreciate what you do have.
⒊You'll realise that your home is more than just where you grew up.
As Lin Yutang said, no one realises how beautiful it is to travel until he comes home and rests his head on his old, familiar pillow. The more you travel, the more you will realise that your home is much more than the town that you've grown up in. You will realise that your home is the world, and you become more conscious of how you can live and support one another.
⒋You'll realise how little you actually knew about the world
The world is like a book, and those who do not travel read only one page. When you travel, you may notice that some of the things you've heard about the world end up being very different. You may also realise how kind and friendly strangers can be. They are even willing to take care of you with a place to sleep at night. Beyond that, you have the whole world to learn about with every place you discover, every person you meet and every culture you experience.
⒌You'll realise that it's extremely easy to make friends.
A journey is best measured in friends, rather than miles. One of the first things I learnt from travelling is how easy it is to make friends. Something magical happens in how people can show up in a more honest and real way when they're out of their conditioned environment and open to express themselves without feeling judged.
