Why We Travel :)

1. The reason I travel, is to lose yourself in the new ssurroundings. Also, to learn about and see what different cultures are. "Yet for me the first great joy is simply the luxury of leaving all my beliefs and certainties at home." This is exactly what happens to me when I travel, because you see how different their culture and beliefs are. So you see it all in a different light, something you would never of thought of before.

2.  "The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeing new places, but in seeing with new eyes." This means that when you travel you have an image of what is going to look and be like. But when you get there you are totally blown back because you were wrong about what you assumed it would look and be like. This relates to me because i always have an image of what a different place might be like and what I'm going to experience, but as I explained I'm blown back on what I actually see and see that i was totally wrong.

3. "What gives value to travel is fear." This means is that the best part of traveling is that not knowing about where you are going.  This relates to our journey because we already learning about the place we are traveling to. So that we don't have to see and what we are going to experience when we go there.

4. I think we do have a responsibility to share our knowledge and experience with all we visit and the people we return to. Because it is important to inform others that don't know about your culture. Also, for them to inform you how they live and about their culture. It just gives you and others more information about different cultures, that others and you didn't know about before.

5. My favorite quote is actually one of the very first on this article. It was when Lyer says "We travel, initially, to lose ourselves; and we travel, next, to find ourselves." The reason this quote is my favorite is that it is so true. It is exactly what happens when i travel to new places. Plus it opens you to new experiences that you might have when you travel
