1. Going out of the country is an amazing experience that everyone should get to do,

From the airplane ride, to arriving, to all the different things you might have planned: the whole experience is incredible.

2. You get a chance to see another culture

Although America is diverse, it is nothing compared to other countries. Getting to see their holidays and celebrations and even everyday errands are so different.

3. The views

From the jungle to mountains, desert or snow, other countries have amazing views. When you go some place new, especially another country, the colors and everything are just more vibrant and beautiful.

4. Traveling really humbles you.

There is so much more to life than what's going on around you. Getting away from that can be really eye-opening.

5. It's perfect to get away.

Life can get overwhelming, whether it's school or work, or anything else you might be doing. Going out of the country is so relaxing. Your only worries are having fun!

6. It makes you more appreciative.

Seeing a third world country can be beautiful and very sad. There is so much poverty and people without homes. However; they take life for what it is and enjoy it, so maybe you should too.

7. It can be a once in a lifetime chance.

Not everyone gets to travel around the world very often. If you get the chance—take it. You won't be young forever.

8. Food.

Need I say more? The food in other countries is phenomenal. Don't be afraid to try new things.

9. It's a chance to learn a new language.

The best way to learn a language is to be surrounded by it. Why sit in a French class when you can go to France?

10. It builds character.

All these wonderful things put together can really change who you are and your outlook on life.
