Traveling

There was [vigorous ] debate about the reasons why people are so [desirous] of  travelling  the world, but [conventional ] wisdom says, "You [venture ] into unknown lands because that is where your heart will take you." So the [subtle ] question is: why does your heart do that?

A [nimble ] mind might come up with dozens of answers for why traveling is an [intrinsic ] part of our lives. I will share just a couple with you.

We are always excited to [embark ] on a new journey because we are eager to experience something new. Sometimes life turns [bland], and that's when travel comes into play. Imagine that you're exploring a new city, walking along narrow Italian streets, climbing the Great Wall of China and losing your breath, or enjoying some New York street food on the fly. It's a brand new feeling—a brand new you.

We travel for people. Now my friends are geographically [dispersed], and I am super excited to meet them, whether in an armpit of Indonesia or a giant [vibrant ] city.  It’s so curious how people of different cultures can come together. Trust me, you will never feel [desolate] traveling solo; you will always find like-minded people everywhere! Wherever I traveled, I was always welcomed and never given a [raw ]deal.

And not only human beings are objects of [scrutiny ] for travelers, but also culture. We tend to [scrutinize ]cultural differences and [latch ] onto some peculiarities between them—different world perceptions, religions, customs, and mindsets. For those who are [receptive ] and open-minded, there are heaps of things to explore!

So time and [tide ] wait for no man! Go and book your flight, have a whale of a time, and figure out what your reasons for traveling are!
