|  | My Travels Probably my Favorite thing in the world is travelling. I figured that riches and wealth can be taken away in a heart beat but no one can take away your experiences from you. I know it might sound cliche but travelling the world has expanded my heart and mind. it has made me more knowledgable, it has induced in me an addicition to see and learn more.
Travel has made me more appreciative of culture and others views , has made me a more tolerant individual. But the most importnat thing i have leant about travel is, its not the places you go but the people you meet along the way. travellers are always my favorite people because there often naked. It usually takes a long time for barriers to be broken amongst people but in the experience of travel, people are more likely to be open and show their true selves. In a envirmonment where people feel vulnerable they often feel more of a desire to be with others and to share themselves. These are my favorite experiences.Its the greatest thing in the world to connect with others and thats what travel often gives you. Its not Angkor Wat, or the Pyramids or the Iguazu Falls thats going to fill your heart with joy, its more likely to be the people you meet on your way there. The honest and open friends you make that you never forget.
I will continue to wander this world, and hopefully continue to meet other wanderers and i will keep placing them in the bank of my memory. Hopefully the day i am asked to leave this mortal coil i will be able to look back on my account and see how rich i always was. |
