Why I Fell in Love with Travel

I’ve been in love with travel ever since I was a little girl. No matter where I was headed, I was always excited to sit in that window seat on the airplane. To this day, I still HAVE to have a window seat, and I sit there in awe of how beautiful the view is each and every time…. Well, that’s if I’m still awake – I’m usually out like a light before we even take off.

Over the years, I have fallen in love with travelling. Here are my 3 reasons why.

The world is beautiful, and it’s your oyster

Travelling allows you to see how wonderful and beautiful God has made this world. Deserts, jungles, even our cities are uniquely beautiful! Pink sand beaches…black sand beaches! Aside from the popular instagrammable spots, there are also so many hidden treasures in every country, and honestly… I can’t wait to discover some of my own.

For the culture

Culture is what makes us unique – every region, every country has it’s unique culture and it’s beautiful to be able to experience a country’s authentic culture and traditions.

It makes me sad to see people visit countries, and not take the initiative to experience the culture. Instead of going out and finding authentic representations of the culture, they take in whatever watered down version their hotel gives them.

I definitely think that you do yourself a disservice by not opening yourself up to experiencing the culture of a country you visit. Travelling opens your mind. You have the ability to learn new things that may possibly enhance your life back at home. You also get to better understand others, and their way of life.

A change of pace

Who doesn’t like to get away from the everyday hustle and bustle. You can let your hair down, relax and enjoy nice things…or find your sense of adventure and try new things that will give you an adrenaline rush. Personally, I like to strike a balance between relaxing & enjoying nice things, and adventure & experiencing the culture. It’s literally the best of both worlds.

Through this blog, I hope to fall deeper in love with travel, and help you fall in love with it too. I hope to tell my story, and share everything I learn along the way. I hope to immerse myself in various cultures, and be able to introduce them to you too. I hope I encourage you to venture outside of your comfort zone, and try new things in these beautiful places. Let’s live our best lives together!
