travel never looked so good

How Travel defined me

 I have spent most of my life travelling, having lived in 4 countries and traveled to over 13. I see it as expanding your mind, opening it up to all the different possibilities life has to offer. I was once told this quote by an old French man I found on the streets of downtown Toronto, he said,” imagine the world is one giant house, and you are born into one room. Now imagine never leaving that room, that is why we must travel”. I like to believe that I have lived my life according to that quote. When I tell people about thus quote a lot respond with what if the room your born in to is amazing and has everything you may every want in life. Well if you don’t see how bad some rooms have it, however will you learn to apricate what you have. The happiest people I have ever met where those who had absolutely nothing. Who were living every day as if it would be their last. Those with absolutely nothing appreciates everything, and those with everything rarely appreciate anything, as bob Marely once said, “Money is numbers and numbers never end. If it takes money to be happy, your search for happiness will never end.”. Following exactly that I have recently decided to make yet another life changing decision, as of January 6^th 2019, I will have moved to Guatemala with only $3,000 dollars to my name. I’m taking the time off school to fully explore my self as a human, after all how can one decide on a career when they don’t even know what their passion may be. I think it is really important for people to see what the world has to offer, having more personal understanding about the many countries that make up the world. For the sake of it let’s say travel was free, how many people would actually allow themselves to step out of there comfort zone and take the leap of faith?
