Sometimes you just need to take that chance, drop everything and go somewhere worthwhile.
Getting up and leaving everything on whim can be one of the most influential decisions that you have ever made in your life. Here are 10 reasons to do just that.
1. Every Summer In The Same City?
I know home is where the heart is, but spending every summer the same way can be boring. There are other cities and destinations out there that have the same attractions and even new ones to test your imagination. If your home houses your heart, where might you find other parts of you?
2. Laziness will be at an all-time high
Let's be honest, your online time will reach a peak during the summer. Where else do you need to be? You will look at Facebook, Twitter, and other various platforms more than you eat during the summer.
3. Parents can be a drag
You're in college, but your parents will still treat you like a 10-year-old. Whenever they get on your nerves, maybe that is a sign to cruise Expedia.
4. You go out every night anyway
If you are like me, then you go out every night to hang out with your friends until 1:00 A.M. Might as well do that in another city, so you encounter new sights and people.
5. Get away before college ends
Explore the world while you have the time because once college ends, there will be no time for fun and festivities.
6. You have watched every series on Netflix
There are only so many shows on Netflix that you can binge watch all summer. Instead of watching shows about people in other places, actually go to these places to learn something new for a change.
7. Get into some new food
Anthony Bourdain is no fool. Wandering the world and eating weird stuff all week sounds like a good way to kill some summer time.
8. Something is missing
Your hometown cannot have everything unless you live somewhere like San Francisco. Take Albuquerque for example -- where's the beach? Nowhere! That should be an invitation to head somewhere with a beach and soak up the sun.
9. Why Not?
Unless you're a prisoner in your own home, there's nothing holding you back. Take 10 minutes to think about the possibilities. When those are through, start thinking about what you need to do to get there.
10. You Might Fall in love
You never know what is going to happen in a new city. You might go there just to have fun and end up falling in love with the city itself or someone you meet there.
