I asked one of my friends you are lucky you have the advantage of
Internet and you can not only search but also book your holidays in
few minutes but still you travel to same destinations. Why? His
answers reflected the way most people nowadays think. What is there to
see? I don’t know the language? It might be expensive? I might not
feel comfortable visiting there. I don’t know anything about the food.
I don’t know anything about the culture. It might not be the place to
go with family.
Even though you might want to visit other places but you only visit
the places where either your friends or family have already been and
recommended to you when they returned. OR you might only visit the
places they have shown on TV. The world is bigger than we think; there
are so many great destinations that you would need 10 lives to visit
each and every city in the world.
The best part of visiting different destinations is that you would
discover new things, new people, new cultures, new foods and new
languages etc. Some countries are expensive but based upon your budget
you will discover that only the flight is expensive when visiting a
destination far away but once you get there the accommodation, the
food and traveling locally is much cheaper than visiting a western
country. I found one good source of information on
http://www.friends4travellers.com here you can search by country and
even you can get some great deals on you holidays, flights,
accommodations etc.
Some people travel because its part of their business and work, some
people travel to the same destination because of their relatives,
friends etc. You don’t have to, you can take the lead and let the
others, your friends follow you rather then you follow them.
