Traveling allows people to see how big the world really is and realize that life is not only about ourselves. If I removed the parts of my life where I had visited a distant land, whether it be along the coast of California, on the back of a camel in Morocco, leaning against the Tower of Pisa, or my daily meals with my home stay family in Spain, my heart is then void of the unexplainable wonder in the ability to travel... I wouldn’t know what it was like to see how people in other cultures live their everyday life and definitely would not be the person I am today.
