what travel means to me 101
i love to travel. i know some of you, especially those who haven~t traveled much, think i~m on vacation. that counldn~t be further from the truth.
i still have problems and everything is not perfect. i travel for education. it is more valuable than any class, anything i could read online or in a book.
traveling feeds my sould and fulfills me, gives my life depth and meaning. it~s all i want to do and it is vital for my peace of mind. traveling exposes me to myslelf, meaning, i get to know my limits, strengths, comfort zones. it educates me about other cultures, about the spirit of pepole, our differences of which there are few. it allows me to use all my senses to find something new in every day.
traveling is not to get away. travel for me, is an unwritten understanding among a large group of people, and a way of life that is constantly challenging, terrifying, unique, beautiful and lonely.
but beyond the lonliness, which is so trivial when i get past it, is a wide eyed girl chasing and embracing change, destiny and meaning.
