Traveling -Maelee Moriarty

One thing that is very important to me is traveling. This word can mean many things to different people. I think any type of traveling is super important. Whether this means going to another state or another town, for a day or a week, I think it is very important and necessary. Traveling allows you to create new experiences and see other things you didn’t know existed. It allows you to try new things and sometimes step outside your comfort zone. It changes your personality and if you go far enough you can see a whole different perspective of the world. You can experience new life styles. Even if you don't like the lifestyle, you can just go home. But now you know more about how others live and your own living preferences. Traveling at any age can improve your life and will most likely help you in the future. You will gain more knowledge for just being around more diverse people and places. Having more knowledge about the world can impress others and be useful. This could sometimes help with getting a job or passing a test. Traveling is also important for your mental growth. It is not good for anyone to be “trapped in a bubble” your whole life. By traveling, you could discover something you love that could possibly change your life. You never know unless you go. Lots can happen when you travel, some things will be unexpected but whatever experiences you have you will always remember and appreciate them in the future.

    

In my personal experience, traveling has always been a fun experience. It is always a good time to spend time and make memories with my family. We all do what we want and we don't have to worry about work or school. We stop our continual schedules and enjoy ourselves. Traveling is a great way to help with stress, anxiety, and depression. Multiple studies have been done to prove that traveling can help relieve these things. When I think about all the places I have traveled too, it seems like a lot. In reality, there are SO many places left to go and experience.

Whoever you travel with, whether it is friends, family, pets, or even alone there will be a benefit and it is definitely worth your time.
