All of you have probably traveled to many places either in France or
abroad. And that’s very good!
Going to another country during vacation is fun and relaxing but other
than that, it can bring you so many good things.
First of all, traveling disconnects you from your daily life. It is very
important to have moments during the week and longer ones during holidays, in
which you completely forget about what’s going on, the stress, school... This
way, you’ll be able to rest completely and come back to your daily life more
efficient and less tired. Also it takes you out of your comfort zone because
you have to go to places you don’t know and you are not used to. This is good
practice for later, when you will have to meet new people, find a new job…
Also, traveling makes you smarter in a way. Not only will you learn new
languages but you might also learn things about yourself, develop new skills.
Going abroad makes you discover new cultures and be more open-minded. You will
become more tolerant and discover many things you didn’t know about new cultures.
Saint Augustine said “The world is a book, and those who do not travel read
only one page”. I think this quote really shows that the world is full of
unexpected things that will make you happier, funnier and eager to discover
more.
Finally, traveling makes you feel like an adventurer because you do
things you have never heard anyone talk about in your surroundings. For example
you try new foods that are sometimes very strange but really good (or sometimes
really bad ;)). It makes you face the unknown and react differently.
So even if you just go
to another region in France or visit a town not far from home during a weekend,
you are still being open-minded and taking a step forward.
