Why Traveling with your Best Friend Rocks
Macie Heller

Traveling is an adventure and every place you explore opens your eyes to a new culture. When you get the chance to do this with your best friend every experience becomes more exciting. Traveling together is an opportunity you should never pass up; together you will make lifelong memories!

Here are a few highlights of traveling with your partner in crime.

You have a guaranteed shoulder to sleep on while on the plane

Sleeping on a plane is neither convenient nor comfortable, but at least you can snuggle up to your best friend instead of the creepy guy next to you who informs you right before takeoff that he hasn’t showered in over two weeks.

You can share clothes

No need to worry about over packing or not having enough clothes... together both of your suitcases make for a pretty great wardrobe and you’re guaranteed the perfect outfit.

Trying new food is more fun

One of the most exciting things about traveling is trying the cuisine of a new culture. And when you’re with someone else you can both get something different and try double the food, which is an all around win!

Exploring a new city becomes quite the adventure

Whether it’s mastering public transportation or learning your way around a new area, it’s comforting to have someone by your side through it all who is just as eager as you are. Maybe you’re out to discover the best coffee shop in town, or find the hottest club or maybe you just so happen to stumble across a street show and get pulled right into the middle of it. Tackling a new place is the best adventure and challenge you and your best friend can take on.

Every night is a sleepover


Maybe you’re staying at a 5 star hotel or maybe you’re in a hostel where you have to make your own bed and worry about bedbugs. Either way, you get to end every exhilarating and exhausting day in the same room as your best friend and stay up all night gossiping, jamming to music and planning the next day’s adventures. The good times never end.

You get the experience all of the craziness together

Sometimes things happen and you immediately think to yourself, “Did that really just happen???” (Like when you witness a person pull their pants down in the middle of the street and go to the bathroom). When you’re with your best friend all you have to do is share a look with one another and soon the laughter erupts. Taking it all in is part of traveling, and the things you witness will create life long memories.

Getting lost isn’t so bad

Getting lost is bound to happen at least once. It sucks, but getting lost with your best friend becomes an adventure all in itself and that sort of rocks.

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.
