Yes, that's so true. It gives you exposure and allow you see how things work on the other side of the borders. Additon to that when you come back you tell other people about that place too and your feelings with them which make the things interesting and worth listening.
Spot on! It gives you a lot of exposure and opens up your horizons that makes you to see things in a different ways. Have a good one. Tomas
Nice one and true ;)
There are so many moments leaving you speechless while traveling but you come home with a "book" of stories and memories! I had my best moment in Australia when I wanted to hitchhike from the mainland to an island (there are no streets on this island, you can only drive on sand with a 4wheelDrive. I could manage to get to the island, some nice guys brought me to the beach where I took the ferry to the island. Another guy gave me a lift to a good and hidden place on the island where I was camping in a tent for one day (unfortunatelly you aren't allowed to camp wherever you want, so I had to take care of the rangers) But when I held up my thumb the next day to stop a car and get back to the mainland people were loughing and they made pictures of me. I was lucky, so I still had a telephone number of the guy who gave me the lift and he also helped me to get off the island again, driving me over 100 kilometers back to the ferry - for free! Moreover he gave me some oranges because after a few hours trying to find a way back to the mainland I was hungry as hell! Such a nice guy, I hope I will meet more people like him.. :)
Thank you for sharing your story with us! Good to know there are still people with a good heart out there. Tomas
One of my most intense travel stories is from Costa Rica. I was so scared of all the animals living there at first. All those snakes, monkies, insects etc. Yet, I decided to go for a zipline ride through the jungle. I saw many of these animals below me, heard all the noises of the jungle around me but the my scare gradually turned into excitement.
It was one of my biggest adventure so far I totally loved it!
Brave girl:)....
hehe ďakujem :)) Have a great upcoming week!
Travelling is one of the most inspirational things happens with human nature. As it nurtures the behavioral aspects and also impacts the thoughts of the traveler in a very positive way. So, i do agree with the above mentioned quote of Ibn e Batota ; travelling does change the way of thinking and approach towards life as a whole.
These winter vacations i went to Safari Park Lahore with my Family including brothers and their kids. We stayed a week there and had some awesome fun. Kids were so enthusiastic to see the animals and birds, so do i. I played cricket with my brothers and enjoyed some singing too.
This thing gave me a break to my hectic routine and provided a chance to enjoy the beauty of nature with open arms.

Good to hear you got a break time from your busy routine. Little travel and some fun time always helps.
my most amazing traveling memory remains on my trip to Tibet. Eye opening experience see how others live their life so differently from ours. I will share my story shortly in my blog.
Tibet is my travel wish list too! Cannot wait to hear your story.
I like so much this quote! Yes, sometimes we just cannot stop telling stories about great places that we visited because we like to share the emotions that we felt. Another quote about travel that I like: "the world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page" St. Augustine
That's a good one. I like that one too!
i inspired by you more because i want to visit somewhere... recently i visited cox's bazar and it is the sea beach of bangladesh... i enjoyed so much.. fantastic post...
One does not have to travel thousand miles to find new things. Sometimes people do not even explore their own country which is the shame. Tomas
Traveling is a good and practical way to acquire knowledge. The story is an automatic process of traveling.
Great quote. A reminder to always remember to feed the soul.
It's really great and inspirational @czechglobalhoats. Travel gives us perspective and opens our eyes to other cultures. Travel makes us more interesting. The more you see and experience, the more adaptable, creative and confident you are. Travel makes us more Knowledgeable. Traveling teaches you to become a better listener.
