As the years go on, statistics show that people are traveling less and less throughout their lives. Some say because Americans view a trip to their grandparents as a vacation; or they would rather spend a few days at a theme park than to take a plane trip to a new distant land. Many people make excuses and would rather spend extra money on clothes or food; but why do so many people not want to travel? Is it because they can experience it on their television screens or wish to stay in the comfort of their own home? Many people do not understand the basis to leave home, people should travel more to experience the places, the new foods and even the new cultures. Traveling the world creates many opportunities to experience new life and memories, especially to visit new places that most have never been to before. New locations create a new vindication of yourself, understanding the history behind a historical site or the chance to see mountains so tall that the top disappears into the clouds. Imagine walking into a church in Paris, …show more content…
There are so many different cultures within the world and yet many of us have only experienced one culture in our lives. Experiencing other societies creates a cultured lifestyle, through choices in clothing, to understanding different societies, religions, language and even understanding different foods. As well as how many places in the world have different morals, morals are a type of belief system that a person or a group of people believe to be right. What we deem right, could be wrong in another country. That is why traveling is so important, because we can learn what is right and wrong to other cultures. Not so we can force our mindset into other societies and tell them they are wrong, but so that we could retain the information and learn from that experience. There are two sides to every story and argument, so why not explore our options, and see what other cultures are all
Today many people have a very fixed view about others in different countries, and what the locals from those countries think about Americans. America was formed so people from other cultures could come and make a life for themselves, and so they could come and enjoy the traditions and ways of America. If people could stop and think about all the good things that other countries have to offer instead of all the bad that the media shows, they could learn to appreciate those countries better. People need to be more open minded about going to other countries because without travel there would be no way of learning about other cultures.
One big reason people travel is their sense of adventure, to be honest, if the world was not as explored as it is today, people would travel a whole lot more often they do now. Leif Ericsson was a Norse Viking who was living in Greenland in a Norse settlement. When his father, Eric the Red was coming back from Europe he misjudged his direction and missed Greenland by a lot running into
The food is good, the air clean, the sunshine warm, the nights chill and the sights spectacular. AND I’m an international travel junkie – say ‘NYC’ and my eyes light up. Say ‘London’ and I shudder with delight. Berlin, Vienna, Florence, Melbourne cause me to tremble with pleasure. Rio, Buenos Aires, Helsinki, Havana, Tokyo and St. Petersburg are calling and I hope to see them all.
Whoever came up with "Where there 's a will, there 's a way" knew what they were talking about. I 've wanted to study abroad for a while but the thought of not being able to afford it left me feeling quite discouraged. Financing for study abroad is basically a full-time job. For example, the program I am going with costs $17,650 just for tuition and housing. Then you add in the cost for plane tickets, visa, passport, meals, and personal stuff. As you can guess it is a lot. Yet, here I am!
Life on the Road It’s fair to say that life on the road is something most people do not desire, as a way to live out their days; but a young man named Chris McCandless believed it was necessary to avoid the venomous grips of society. McCandless goes as far as to venture out to the rest of the United States and even crossing borders to achieve his true destination, Alaska. He shows us living such a life can hold many unique and wonderful experiences.

Growing up in Midwest America, there is not much to look at. The trees, fields of grass, rolling hills, and small towns offer a dull environment for a teenager. There are hardly any monuments, sculptures, or architectural feats to gaze at in admiration. Ultimately, the Midwest appears very mundane. This monotonous landscape seems to push the idea of a typical lifestyle of conformity; one that customarily consists of attending school, finding a career, and settling down with a family. To fully procure an awareness and acceptance of different lifestyles, one must travel. Whether from town to town or on the other side of the planet, traveling allows a person to see the different cultures, beliefs, and beauties that make up our world; I believe in traveling.
Besides the food and beautiful attractions, I learn about different cultures, become aware of what is happening in different areas, and I gain new perspectives. This is one of the many reasons why I love and appreciate traveling; it is eye opening and makes me appreciate my life more. Above all, traveling allows me to gain new experiences to become a social worker and a more compassionate
Would you rather go on a trip in the freezing, frosty cold or the dazzling, bright warm weather? In my opinion, going on week long trips or even small trips I would much rather visit in the summer. In the summer there are more things to do, school work isn’t as important, and it’s safer for everyone. Of course a small amount of people do love winter and all the snow, but from what I know, the majority of people enjoy summer much more than winter. It's lots of fun going on a grade eight trip with all your friends is lots of fun in winter, but when you have one hour of your free time to hang, visit or shop walking into a store with your hat, mitts, coat, boots and even snow pants is very inconvenient. When it's winter at school your always doing tests and your report cards may be just coming out and in summer you are watching movies doing activities and your school work isn’t as important, so going in summer is less challenging for teachers and the district, and besides there is way more tourist parks and even amusement parks in summer! Please keep
Getting prepared and ready to explore something new is just minor compared to the actual adventure for a senior anticipating the departure of their school trip. I was a member along with 30 other classmates of the co-curricular group called Business Professionals of America, a club organized through our school. Our teachers, club officers, and all of the members had been planning and fundraising for our trip to New York City for months. The excitement grew more and more as each day got closer to take off. All of us were anixious to see The Empire State Building, "Ground Zero," a Broadway play, and the spectacular views of gorgeous ocean sunsets. We had all been told and were aware of the different surroundings of the environment, or culture we would be experiencing when we arrived. Different cultures are common throughout the world, even in different places around the United States. Going on a trip to explore New York City really made the differences in cultures aware to me.
There are thousands of things I love, but vacation is on the number one list. Many times over the years I have taken vacation time; It was only a while back, when I realized how amaz-ing, and the great value it gives the sole and body. There have been times when I felt not wanting to leave my work, whether it’s financial problems or among other things. Other times I thought my work was at a decisive juncture and it wouldn 't get accomplished without me. All profession-als or employees know that the money does not just make itself unless they are there to make sure everything is going according to their policy. I know I am not alone in making excuses not to take a vacation. When I asked a couple of my co-workers, they also agreed on not even taking a week off for the entire year, some even included holidays.
There is nothing quite like traveling, going someplace new and finding out more about the world and yourself. Anyone can become a traveler it just takes a little bit of faith and courage. Traveling across the world or even across the country is a learning experience. When you are a traveler you see how people live and how different cultures work. It is the best educational experience you could give yourself. You see how the world works in a way no one can teach you. Seeing different cultures and people help build the person you want to be. If you are a traveler the world influences you, because when traveling, you see the good and the bad, and you learn from the right and the wrong. I am very lucky that I am able to be a traveler and see this
The world is a magnificent place that’s full of life and new places. Places that are waiting to be walked upon and viewed by the eye’s of travelers. To make new memories and go places that is beyond the walls of reality and new pathways of life. To truly experience the wonders that the world has to offer can be expressed by the life of one single person, setting off into the world to gain a higher purpose about the world. Traveling individually enables people to broaden their minds and accumulate new ideas and new experiences both nationally and internationally. By setting off into the world a person has the ability to learn so many new things, but also find so much about themselves while in the process of traveling.
