Most people want to travel but fear keeps them from doing it traveling. For some people it is easy to just jump ship and travel. For me, I just needed one holiday before I left to go travel the world. For others it is a lot harder to do that. They are more tied down, more afraid, more uncertain. Despite their desire, a small push want do, they need to be hurled.
If you desire a reason, here are many good reasons to go around the world:
There's a recession. With the world economy in a tailspin and companies slashing jobs, there is a lot of economic uncertainty in the world. Avoid it all. Go travel. If you quit your job, sell your stuff and travel, you won't have to worry about it. In fact, prices are dropping as the tourist industry tries harder to get people to go overseas. Come back when the economy is better. Let others worry while you go out and have fun.
You meet a lot of interesting people. There is not a day that doesn't pass when you dont meet people from all over doing the same thing you are. You'll meet locals who will help you around and open their homes and city to you. What more can you ask for in life than seeing wonderful people and creating a network of friends that spans the globe. Think of it as networking for when the economy gets better.
It is better than being behind a desk. Working is tedious. Sitting behind a desk for eight hours, commuting to work, worrying about bosses and reports is not our idea of fun. Lets face it, between worrying about next months bills or an island in Asia, everyone would select the island.
Its cheap. Everyone thinks that traveling is expensive but its not at all. You can travel quite cheaply by using low cost airlines, staying in other people, or with locals who offer you their home, and by taking local transportation.
You learn about yourself. Travel helps you figure out what makes you you and what you really like or dislike. Forced to fend for yourself, it is do or die. You have to adapt to your surroundings, meet other people, make your own decisions, and plan your life.
Because, like Yoda said, do or do not. Why spend your life thinking about what might be when you can just do it. Its not that hard to travel you just have to have the will to do it. Don't live life with regrets- get up and get going. NO ONE ever regrets a trip like this. NO ONE.
Traveling around the world is a life changing experience. There's no reason not to go. There is no big secret on why to go. Just go. Even if it's for a week, or a month, or a year. See the world. You only get one chance. Make it worthwhile.
