Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all.
There are 50 states in the USA and there are 195 countries in the world. Life is not meant to be lived in the same exact place. Life is meant to explore and do something abstract to your daily living.
When you are staring out the plane window, you can't help but dream. Looking out the window, you see all the beauty this world has to offer. In my opinion, flying at night is the prettiest. You can see all the city lights, and it is just breathtaking. I personally love road trips and getting lost while driving. I have an interest in trying to navigate my way back without my GPS. You can see a lot with driving, you can see more art on the streets, than in a museum.
Many people are faced with trepidation when they have the opportunity to travel.
Having to fly, take a boat and or drive can be overwhelming because you just want to reach your destination. However, if you could possibly overcome these fears, the outcome will be beautiful and possibly life-changing.
Traveling on my own multiple times, reaching cities alone... I can say it has made me an independent person, as well as a more rounded person for sure. It has made me more patient. I can get frustrated when my plane gets delayed, or I miss my bus. But, you just alter your plans and move on. Life throws you curve balls, and you just need to hit a home run.
Fear should not be a deterrent, but maybe a motivation.
Everyone needs to learn to embrace fear and challenge ourselves as often as possible. I think everyone should STOP living the American dream, but live their dream. Do wonderful things.
When you leave your comfort zone and travel. You really do see the most amazing and beautiful things. When you travel you see things you never anticipated on seeing in your life. You meet so many diverse people and diverse cultures. When you travel, you generally accept the person who lives there. There is never any judgments because it is their culture.
When you travel, those online pictures becomes reality. There is nothing more amazing, then being able to tell someone you did that. You see things, pictures would never be able to show.
Judging someone how they look or where they have grown up does not define them as a person.
Open your heart, accept the diversity and you will never regret it. I never would have guessed people could be able to impact my life the way they did.
Traveling opens your mind to tons of different possibilities. In life, society is always pushing to make decisions on what you want to be for the rest of your life. When you travel you open possibilities to find jobs, you never even heard of. You realize there are jobs out there, that could potentially be your dream job.
I believe leaving a familiar place only makes you stronger in the end. I think it makes you open up and cherish the people who are similar and different to you. I believe traveling is addicting, and it always gives you positive vibes. The memories you make will last you a lifetime.
Life is very short — if you have the opportunities, you should take them.
Take risks and go out of your comfort zone to try the new things. At the end of the day, memories are the most valuable thing you can have. Travel before it is too late and your not able too anymore. Traveling humbles you at the end of the day.
Take the chance, take the leap and be adventurous. Embrace every single second of it. Never let your dreams, just be dreams.
I have not been around the world, but I will one day. Since I started traveling, I have not been happier than who I am right now. Traveling has become a huge part of me, and I aspire you to take the leap and explore something out of the ordinary for you.
See ya on the journey and always say yes to new adventures!
"All glory comes from the daring to begin."
