Hello Steemit!
Each one of us needs to set aside some time for important journeys. Journeys that are transformative, that help you relax, retrospect, as well as discover new things about yourself and the world around you. And a trip to just about any place in this world could just be that journey for you.
1) You start loving life
Camping under the sky and waking up to the fresh mountain air makes you realize the unhealthy lifestyle you have been leading all along. And spending a night lying on the ground looking at the surreal sky, studded with millions of stars, or a long walk along the shores of a beach sounds any day better to you.
2) Travel makes you more calm and retrospective
Vast, rugged terrains, barren mountains roads and the silence of it all just adds up to some time spent alone to relax and reflect about parts of your life that you wouldn’t ponder about on a normal day.
3) Interacting with different people changes your perspective on travelling
You end up meeting different kind of people wherever you travel, and you will be surprised by how much you can learn from every individual you have met. You will also notice the friendliness and patience of the locals towards inquisitive travellers. Also travellers from different parts of the world; where you get to learn more about where they come from, why they travel and what they think about travelling.
4) You are more open to Travelling than ever before
You learn to accept that exploring a new destination is not as easy as it seems. There are things that you’ll be clueless about, parts of your trip that you will have to plan on the go and other parts that don’t exactly go as planned. But you also realise that these hurdles are exactly what gives you a sense of achievement and satisfaction at the end of your journey.
5) You feel humbled by the sheer vastness and beauty of this world
When you travel, you realize how small you are. When compared to massive mountain ranges and the endless sand dunes and salt flats that stretch beyond the horizon. It’s definitely a humbling experience to feel like a tiny insect in front of nature’s vast creations.
6) You are more confident
You are more confident at doing things that once seemed almost impossible, That’s right. There could’ve been a time when you would’ve felt that riding up those rugged, hilly regions or rafting across a rapid, torrential river were fears you could never imagine doing. But not anymore. All it takes is that one big step towards a journey of a lifetime.
