Travel is for everyone; Not only for the aged.

Young people in Africa haven't taken up traveling a lot as they have opted more for alcohol and the trending gadgets. Clubs fill up to capacity on weekends but when you take time to pass by tourist sites, you'll get a handful of locals and mostly whites in these areas. This is all because of the wrong perception about traveling which is locking young people from experiencing the joy that comes with visiting a place you've never been to. The young people have been blinded by the view that traveling is for aged people, the rich, and yet these areas take a lot less expenses than what is spent averagely on a night in a bar or club.

On top of the new place visited, traveling exposes one to new cultures of people in those places. Lifestyles differ from one area to another, and with the vast cultures in Africa, you get to learn how people see life differently and learn how you could adopt these changes into your way of living for example people producing their own food in small spaces could help you to cut costs spent in purchasing food daily. Communication too improves when you meet people from different backgrounds. You can end up learning a different language since you'll associate with people who speak a different language.

We all know how stressful town life can get with the noise of cars, traffic, rush hours. This results into stress and makes us fail to enjoy to the fullest what is around us. This is different when traveling.. The mind will be in a peaceful state, disconnected from the hectic life and one gets to appreciate what is around him. This is important as it will also help the mind in thinking better making you more creative in approaching life.

This and more, we miss out when we sacrifice traveling for night outs. It's more than just the fun. we shouldn't leave this life to aged people to make the most out of. Ensure to put some money aside often for traveling and skip the life of reading about the world instead of experiencing it.
