Both Ahsan and I love to travel and we have been fortunate to see a number of countries and cultures. I have personally been across both Canada and USA from coast to coast and have also visited UK, France, Italy, Switzerland, Greece, Spain, Turkey and Pakistan. I plan to visit many more cities and countries to improve my awareness and understanding of humanity. Let’s look at 3 reasons why I think Travel is an awesome part of the journey of #HumanTransformation.

Travel helps you become more aware of people around you and their background. By going to a different place with a different language, you get some more perspective on what people value and think compared to you. You will often find a lot of common points with all people of the world no matter where you go.

Travel gets you out of your comfort zone and forces you to grow through challenges as well as pleasant experiences. That delicious new dish you eat for the first time or the awkward hand waving conversation you have with someone who speaks a different language changes you for the better. This is how some great memories are made!

Travel is movement for the body, mind and soul. You can look back in time at historical places and cultures as well as look towards the future by seeing new kinds of thinking or new ways of doing things. You will experience holistic change in your being without the use of any special pharmaceuticals.

I hope you are inspired to travel more and will make 2019 the year you get out there to discover a new place or return to an old favourite one with new perspective. See what you might have missed and go where the people are because the world is meant to be seen!
