UNIT 2

TRAVEL EXPERIENCES




To gain appreciation for what you have
There’s no place like home—but that’s so easy to forget. Leaving the comforts behind gives you a renewed appreciation for them when you return.

To get some distance from work
Americans have a reputation the world over have for being unable to leave their jobs behind. But taking a step away from the job is good for your physical and mental health.

Shared experiences
There’s nothing like a glass of wine by the cruise-ship pool to open a discussion that helps you see another person’s side of things.

To get you out of your comfort zone 
Whether you’re stuck in a rut or looking to gain a little independence, traveling can teach you things you never knew about yourself.

To admire Mother Nature
Travel gives us the gift of seeing how small we really are in comparison to the beauty of Mother Nature.

To learn about other cultures
Every destination has its own unique history and style. A passionate local tour guide will immerse you in a world that’s completely different from the one in which you live.

To strengthen relationships
There’s something about the shared experience of travel that can bring people together.

To unplug
We’re constantly checking in on our phones, living life through other’s status updates or posts. Traveling allows you to disconnect from emails and social media. Sit back, relax, and take in the moment without the screen of your phone blocking the view.
