Why travel



Even with so little time, so little energy we hesitate to do the unfamiliar, explore the unknown, find the passion.  Afire with motivation, the blaze of consistent desire, then new  is not to be feared but experienced to full. The motivation so mentioned could be external or even internal. The external refers to that which is influenced from outside; money, reputation, knowledge, relationships and on. and they in-turn motivates the inner child called curiosity; the drive to discover the layers after layers of unknown. More so, when you travel, a destination just once and feel so comfortable so mystical then  without a doubt you will visit that place next time or maybe even a number of times. Its magical experience draws you in again and again, and each time with familiarity it becomes your second home. It becomes so because it draws something one values most but has yet to be sure and thus at the first time it begins with curiosity. The feeling of what's next!  be it culture, history, adventure and what not's, and with each visit the same place opens up a different world each and every time.

A book opens up a new world through words and symbols that represent which was, is and will be. A video is a kind of archive that is the sum total of  important time lines of a journey in the world which brings life to that through visual and audio tools. Including beyond those dimensions of representation, that which is vividly remembered for lifetime is the hard-earned beat up experience, the tale of a traveler who dares to make mistakes to learn, or to be simply strives to be free from the bonds of the perception, a kind of comfortable prison of perfection in entirety. Free from the familiar place for over a day, not for the intention of any earning but just to enjoy the new and different things is said to be tourism with a destination in mind and a budget to afford it for a time period. 

The thing is, its not only the tourist who is benefited but also the one who guides him including the local people whose services the visitor uses and pays for. A guide not only earns but gets the opportunity to showcase what he knows about the country, the people and their culture. He represents his country to the world through the tourists based on his perception. The local people gets to know more about the outside world, and there is the exchange of culture and information, which is in turn a win-win situation. Without a doubt, the country which is rich in cultural or natural heritage is one of the best destination for the  tourists from all around the world.

A new place has new things accompanied with it. The people living within it, the food they eat, the way of life they live, opens new horizons to the visitor. Experience is one of the most amazing way one can be happy. Travelling can be tiring, the journey may not be what one expects to be, yet it brings adventure to the ordinary, gives opportunity to satisfaction unlike that of things that wear off after some time. People can have a relaxing time away for a time away from hectic life style. They can make new friends strengthen relationship create memories of lifetime. Everyone may not be a professor or researcher looking into history or culture, they travel just to know and experience something of novel nature, perhaps to find themselves, what they really want out of the life. Travelling is akin to change, there is so much to do, perhaps best left to the traveler inside you.
