Buy time to travel and it will make you a richer person
Traveling is something generally taken for granted, and we are in a very fortunate position to be able to do that.
Traveling can change you as a person no matter where you go. It can add so much to someone鈥檚 character to be well-traveled.
First of all, traveling teaches you time management. If you don鈥檛 manage your time well, you may not be able to make your flight, or see that last tourist attraction you plan to see. On the other hand, you also learn that it鈥檚 okay if things don鈥檛 go to plan. If you didn鈥檛 get to see something you wanted to, it鈥檚 not the end of the world.
Once, my family and I went to the airport and our mother forgot her passport, so we weren鈥檛 able to fly that day. We still traveled the following day, so it turned out fine.
Another thing that traveling changes is your perception of the people and things around you. It can open your mind to things you never thought about before.
At our school, we have a program called Education Outside the Classroom, which gives us an opportunity to travel to different areas in China and learn by seeing them in person.
Personally, for me, I think these trips have been integral in my understanding of people who are not as fortunate as I am. Seeing kids who are excited to go to school every day because it鈥檚 their only way to get better opportunities really makes you rethink why you complain about school so much.
Traveling also gives you unforgettable experiences that you wouldn鈥檛 normally have. You get to make connections with new people and new places. When you travel, you make funny, happy, or even bittersweet memories that you remember forever.
