Before the pandemic, it felt more than ever like the world was literally at our fingertips. Literally, yes. But, you can still access the world virtually without leaving your couch. That’s still a great idea, while so many of us are still shelter after the pandemic. We should always be grateful for our virtual portals. But, virtually experiencing the world from one’s couch is far more different than touching, feeling, and living through it.

At the core of everything, believing that travel is proper education, more than college, is a powerful tool for creating a better world with informed citizens. But, beyond this powerful tool, there are plenty of sound reasons to travel as much as possible.

  1. Opened Windows.

Experiencing something unexplored in a new country, place, and time is a noble awakening. Travel opened windows we’ve heard of from the comfort of our homes. But, in the presence, the feeling, it’s much more of a one that is not given. The journey to get there, sometimes leaves strains on the body. It’s life’s songs, but learning to navigate the waves brings gifts of unforgotten stories around dinner tables, at our peace to share.
