RE: Monday Morning Quote: "Travel is not a reward for working it's education for living"
Thanks for the honor of using my picture @mrprofessor!
Not many comments yet for a discussion, so think I need to start it 🤣
I work so I can travel. But the travel itself is an education for life and the way I mean this is that I need it to keep my Dutch sobriety. With every journey I see many beautiful things, and it makes me thankfull for the things I have at home. Like I try to show with my adventures at my local area there are many beautiful things worth it traveling for, but don't forget your place at home. Many Dutchies can complain (and we are good at it!😜) about a boring flat country with all of the problems we see and it's weather of course. But I'm proud and I just love my country, don't want to miss it.
So yeah, that's the thing!
After a trip where we trully open ourselves to contemplate the small details, we come back home more open to discover the small nuances of our own place.
It gets scary though when people spend the whole year complaining about their work and then they say "ah finlly I get to travel for 30 days" and then they go back to that same job they complain about.
Damn did i do the only reaction? 😢
So no real discussion about this topic... Was waiting for it actually 😈
Because when I read your reply I can only conclude great minds think a like 🤣
Yeah, things are a bit slow over here hahaha, but glad you came here!
Travelling isnot only about visiting new places and learning more about the world. Itdefinitely helps us to discover ourselves through new experiences. One dayexploring the world worth one week at home. Don’t get me wrong, being at homewhere there is a feeling of belonging is cool too. However, new experienceshelp us to rediscover the will to live and it’s quite hard to get them when you stick to the routine. Thank God we’re living in 21 century and there is awide variety of online jobs. So, working all year to deserve 30 days oftraveling is quite old-fashioned, don’t you think? There are a lot of hotels,likeLos AltosBeach Resort & Spa which are always happy to welcome freelancers fromall over the world. They provide high-speed Wi-fi and there are a lot ofamazing places within walking distance to discover in your free time.
