Traveling is one of the many joys in life. Being able to see a different part of the world is both rewarding and life-changing.

What if someone told you that traveling has the potential to help you find the love of your life; would you believe them?

For decades Hollywood has released films that showcase iconic characters jet-setting across the world in hopes of finding themselves and the love of their lives. Films such as "Eat, Pray, Love" have taught us that you can find your soulmate while vacationing through Italy, India and Bali.

In the Vogue magazine article, "Can Travel Make You Find Love", author Michela Trimble breaks down the importance of traveling and why you're more open to finding love at such an unexpecting time.

Dr. Holly Parker, a researcher on the art of "Love" states that, "Travel could allow people to be more receptive to falling in love because it offers certain experiences that can boost the odds of attraction and connection, opening the door for love to take root."

Traveling alone can be challenging because you don't always know much about the place you are visiting. This can cause you to be more open to the idea of meeting other people and sharing your bond of traveling to unknown places and can lead to a world of endless opportunities for love.

Finding love starts by finding and loving yourself first. If you haven't mastered that, then you are less likely to find love.

The same goes for traveling.

Michael Bennett, cofounder of the Transformational Travel Collaborative said that "Traveling gives us the opportunity to get into alignment with our values and get back into integrity with who we are. Once we do that, we are significantly more likely to find love."

Travel to a place that you have an interest in and explore by yourself...who knows, you might find the love of your life in place you've never imagined. If you've already found the love of your life, no worries you can travel too.

The Journal of Personal and Social Psychology posted an article that states that traveling as a couple can reduce boredom and relationship decline following the cliche' "Honeymoon stage".

Don't give up hope that love is lost, there is a whole wide world out there waiting for you to explore. Take a trip and enjoy yourself, by doing so you'll be able to focus on yourself and, ultimately, boost the possibility of finding someone you love.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
