To The College Student Who Yearns To Travel

And not lead a life of mundaneness.

To The College Student Who Yearns To Travel
alltravelersgroup

To the college student who is over-comfortable, and even bored, with their life. To the college student who hates being stuck in one place.

To the college student who aches to travel.

You are not alone. Being on a college campus can make you feel trapped. I mean seriously, how many times can you do the same thing every single day in the same place?

There are people that are ok with their life of routine; they're OK with seeing the same buildings and the same people day after day -- but you are not like that. Instead, you want to see everything that you have never seen before. And why wouldn't you?

You want to see:

Morten Rustand, Norway

Venice, Italy


Paris, France


Northern Lights in Alaska

Matterhorn, The Alps


Traveling to you is like breathing. You are always itching to get away, and if you are lucky enough with your time at college, you will get the chance to study abroad and see where the world takes you for an entire semester. As a college student, it will be one of the cheapest ways to travel the world in your life. Hopefully, one day, you will have the chance to see the world the way you want to.

Hold on to your wanderlust and don't worry- the world will be yours soon, but for now, you just have to get through this thing called "class."

Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.

Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
