From early on, we are molded into the person we are by our surroundings. So what happens when you step out away from those surroundings you are made of? Sometimes fear, anxiety, just the not knowing about something keeps us doing the same things over and over. I learned early on that I like to know what is on the other side, I want to see it, experience it, taste it and more. Stepping away from what you know is what travel is all about. Going to new places, tasting new food, doing things you never imagined you would do. The best part about travel also might be meeting new people. This is by far something that I cherish, knowing that some of my best friends are people I have met on a vacation. So next time you see an advertisement for a cruise or a hotel or resort you know nothing about, why not think to step away from what you know and book that trip.
It might be the best thing you ever did.
