Historically speaking, for most of the time our species existed, people lived
as nomadic hunter-gatherers moving around quite often, approach which proved to
be quite useful.
Personally, it feels to me that the very nature of travelling entails a fair
share of wishful thinking, demanding at the same time a leap of faith and
imagination. From making you happier, to reducing stress or by teaching you
about the world or yourself, travelling could be considered an exquisite nourishing
“food” for the soul.
Whether
traveling for a vacation, business trip or some other adventure/s, whether taking
a quick weekend getaway or a multi-month sabbatical around the world, travel
offers a wide range of benefits, and for your convenience, here is a concise
list various experts put together:
- Travelling could improve your communication skills, your creativity, and it could
help expand even further your personal development
-
Travelling could help you achieve a lasting peace of mind (by reducing stress & anxiety) and it could boost your
self-confidence effectively
-
International travelling could make you more tolerant and it could broaden your
understanding of different cultures
-
Travelling could help you appreciate even more the beauty of our nature and
Earth
-
Travelling could expand your horizons and your social network, while giving you
the possibility to create new lifetime memories
-
Travelling could sharpen your mind, it could shift your perspective about life
in general, and (if needed) it could
help you find a new purpose
-
World travelling could help you appreciate even more your home, your friends,
your country or your life.
Concluding, dear friends, I truly believe that travelling it is not always or necessarily
about a certain place or specific destination, but rather about what we bring
to it and how we interact with it. Extrapolating, we could state that travelling
it is not necessarily about the destination or about the journey in itself, but
rather about how you transform yourself during the experience…it is not
necessarily about leaving your home, but about leaving behind old habits
that are not serving you any longer.
Wherever life
might take you next, I wish you happy and safe travels!
