“Traveling makes one modest, you see what a tiny place you occupy in the world.” – Gustave Flaubert
There is so much that you can learn from traveling, it is always a new experience and it will never go exactly according to plan. The little life lessons that you gain from traveling are the things that cannot come from anything else.
A few of the things that traveling can teach you are:
Adaptation
When your perfect itinerary goes in the trash there is nothing else to do besides adapt. You will constantly be handling different situations and people. If you are capable of adapting to all unexpected scenarios
How to handle high-stress situations
When stresses are high, no one is packed, and you have to leave in ten minutes or else you’ll miss the plane. These are the moments when you have to take a deep breath, not freak out and deal with it properly.
Different cultures
When you travel, even to different areas of the country you will experience different cultures. There is so much that each place has to offer. You must learn how to not accidentally insult people, possibly how to get around a language barrier, etc.
So no matter your budget, if it just going on a short three-hour road trip. Go for it, traveling is such an amazing experience and in the end, there is no way to lose something through it. No matter the amount of money you spend, it could be $100,000 or $100 you will gain some fantastic life lessons through it.
