Travel Or Learn New Skills ? (PLEASE HELP ME OUT)

in #travel7 years ago


Since traveling isn’t the cheapest thing in the world,and money certainly is not unlimited I am a big confused about what I should do with some money I have put aside the last 2 years.Should I travel around the world or take online marketing courses (since that is what I study)?  

(Both is not an option,unfortunately)


What is inside my head:

From a young age,my father and I,used to travel around the world.Visit new places,meet different cultures,know better people across the globe and have fun by spending time together.When dark days came and my father could not afford to take me to places I understood that it was on me whether I would be able to explore the world even further or stay at hometown and not leave the country.

At the moment I have visited 13 fascinating countries and I wouldn’t trade that experience with anything.It is a true blessings to be able to visit even one country not to mention 13. Unfortunalely,a few hard days have come for me too so I am a bit at a dilemma cause today’s world completion is really hard and if you aren’t good at sth you will probably face many financial problems at some point of your life.


On the other hand,learning something you enjoy is really satisfying!But in order to learn it right ,you need to have the best teachers to show it to you…soo we get back to point zero.


Should I book tickets,for a trip in the near future or would you suggest me spend my money in order to learn sth from the best ? 


On the comment section below you can share your though with me.Helpful ideas would be really appreciated!

Thank you for your time!

Until next post..See you Steemians!

I, myself, also had this dilemma in the past. However, I truly believe you should travel when you can. There are so many factors that can impede travel such as health (not only yours, but your family's health), work (after you start working vacation days become limited), current events (where you'd like to visit may become hard to travel to) ...just to mention a few.

Think deeply about where you'd like to go and for how long. Is your online course available while you are abroad? How long is the course and do you HAVE to take it now?

I ended up taking an English Teaching Certificate to teach abroad while traveling. Unfortunately, due to external factors, I ended up not leaving the country. But now, to pursue my passion in travel, I work in the travel industry instead.

I hope this helps a little bit.

thank you a lot.money and time are the most important factors that's why I can't make up my mind

Invest half of it in crypto, go travel and check your funds when you're back :D

hahaha...good one.any crypto suggestions?

All I can tell you is that the softskills and life experience that I gained through my travels are worth so much more than I could have ever imagined!

Maybe this helps a bit ;-)

it does.really.thank you for the comment and the following back.
