    Travel, Pack and Enlighten...

The World is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page. 

~St. Augustine

    Travel is a good way of learning about the world; it teaches us many interesting things about cultures of different nationalities. We also travel to find a well-paid job. Travel is the best choice for a person who wants to relax or do some sightseeing. Of course our choice also depends on money, weather and our personality – it's evident that the person who leads an active life will never go to the seaside. First, there are the benefits to your mental health. Travelling gives us the opportunity to relax and de-stress, which prevents burnout. Even travel stress is positive stress because it is not the kind caused by home life. By taking that trip, you also avoid monotony and have a break from normal everyday life. It gives you an attitude adjustment because not only is the planning fun, but also having something to look forward to can brighten your mood. On top of that, vacations give you a chance to meet new people, and maybe even learn about different cultures. If you take a partner along, it can strengthen your bond as you two experience new things together. One of the most important things is that you are creating memorable experiences and...

    Is it worth it to travel abroad with to sustain a well-rounded life? It's good that you are earning a well. But money can never give you happiness. You will be lonely and underneath the expensive items lays the sand truth that you miss your family. Unless, you can bring your family with you. There will always be the person who has a silver platter.

But if you decide to travel remember that:

    It's also significant to point some negative aspects of travelling. For example, in the place which is willingly visited by travellers standards of people's life are changing and the prices are rising. This place is becoming more polluted too. As we can see, tourism is not always good for our environment. And, the prostitution is booming all-over the place. How can we neglect all of these things just for us to be happy and contented?

    Travelling will never be wrong unless you did something wrong. Never neglect things that the human race will suffer in the near future. At the end I want to say that travelling and tourism, in spite of all disadvantages, are becoming more popular because they are the best forms of spending our free time.
