My Top 6 Reasons to Travel

Traveling is such a rewarding and amazing experience. Here are my top 6 reasons to travel!

6. New styles.

I love clothes and fashion (although I am too broke to properly display that love), and I am always in awe when I visit a new place and see how different their fashion sense may be from mine. I do admit that when traveling somewhere, I research what their fashion may be like just to make sure I will not stand out more than I already will as a tourist. Even when traveling within the States, different cities have very different kinds of styles than my small town does.

5. New food and new people.

As someone who loves food, food is an important part of trip planning. I love to eat any and all carbs, so those are normally the kinds of restaurants I gravitate towards, but a national or community favorite is always a stop on the itinerary.


4. The scenery.

This is almost self-explanatory, but I had to mention it. The views of this world are absolutely amazing. No matter where you visit, I guarantee that there will be a breathtaking view somewhere. I know some people would rather enjoy the view instead of seeing it through a camera lens, but taking photos of the beautiful scenery is something that you will be thankful for when you are having traveler's fever.

3. You will discover that there is more to this world than your small town (or big city).

And you will develop a greater sense of wonder and appreciation for the different people and cultures of the world.There are more than seven billion people in this world occupying hundreds of thousands of villages, towns, and cities. Mingle with the locals, find hole-in-the-wall places, stroll through the main street at rush hour. Go out and take a minute to just feel small in comparison to the vast world around you.


2. You will learn far more than you ever planned on learning when first planning your trip.

Travel is the best education. You can learn new history, facts, languages, and so much more while on your adventure. Take time to visit museums and historical spots to become a part of that community's history. Becoming culturally involved, even the smallest bit, can still help you with future endeavors and experiences.


1. The priceless memories that you make will be cherished forever.

Whether you capture your memories through phone, film, or mind, they are memories that you will never be able to forget and will cherish for a lifetime. No matter where you travel, whether it be on a two-hour day trip or a two-month vacation to Europe, traveling is an experience that will change you as a person, even the slightest bit.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
