YEAH!!!!! It’s really very important to explore the world and see different cultures and traditions. It mainly helps you to unplug yourself from the push and pulls of technology.
Loads of memories- The best thing about memories is...making them…Many people ponder why they should travel. But traveling is really important. It helps to cement a bond that nothing can break. Plus it helps us create memories that last for a lifetime.
You have to live your dream- dream big! Travelling always gives you an opportunity to fulfill all your crazy dreams.
A new experience- you learn a lot when you travel. By living situations you would never encounter at home, this is a great experience for you when you come back to your routine. People who travel a lot are always ready to embrace change. You learn a lot about the people staying across the globe, their culture, and their perspective.
One of my biggest dreams was to see “The city that never sleeps” in one stretch. And yeah!! It happened. What a feeling!!
So yeah, dreams come true!! Live it!
Traveling gives you an opportunity to taste different cuisines, it also de-stresses yourself, it recharges your batteries for another long innings coming ahead, and you can learn the culture and see the fascinating world around us.
I also had to explore, working on relieving my dreams, adding it to my memorabilia bank and had to get the new experience. All this came through when we traveled to Kerala the “God’s own Country”.
The flight landed in Cochin one November night and hoping my aspirations to gain the travel experience. We started next day exploring Cochin, the ancient Jews synagogue, the Kerala Museum showing the art and culture of South India, and Kerala in particular, the art of fishing using huge nets all this and awaiting more.
The next day we drove down to the hill station of Kerala – Munnar. Vast tea gardens welcomed us and the scenic beauty was laid in front us. We witnessed Kathakali, Kalaripayattu the two traditional art of Kerala, We visited Tea museum which demonstrated the garden to chai cup Journey and the different types of tea.
We further visited the famous Periyar Sanctuary, the river cruise in the back waters of Kerala.
The best part of travel experience was one four legged visitor, one big grown monkey landed into our room at the Periyar Wild Life Sanctuary Forest Lodge. I was able to come out safely. I was literally playing passing the parcel with the monkey.
The Keralan cuisine is fabulous, the warmth of people is commendable.
That is what I experience while traveling, and what all I could see, experience, learn and taste could not have been possible sitting at home.
Yes, traveling makes you a different person and brings you close to Mother Nature.
Visit exotic new places and discover what this wonderful world has to offer.
So, these are the various perks of traveling. Sometimes, it’s good to part your savings for traveling. I’d just say,
LIVE, EAT, COOK, SLEEP ON FLOORS, TRAVEL, FACE YOUR FEAR, BOOK A TICKET AND… JUST LEAVEEE… AND DON’T BE SORRY!!!!
