WHY TRAVELINGEUROPE CAN

CHANGE YOURLIFE

Manisha Dorawala

Traveling to Europe allows you to view the world differently. Though you’ll find that some parts of it aren’t all that different from the United States, there are small and large differences you will certainly notice. Maybe there’s a type of food you’ve never seen before in your life, maybe people drive on the other side of the road, or maybe a town or country just does things differently than you’re used to. Regardless, you’ll gain a new perspective on how life can be lived and maybe you’ll find something you’d like to change about your day- to-day activities.

SEE THE WORLD

IN A DIFFERENT

LIGHT

GAIN MORE

COMPASSION In addition to gaining a different perspective on the world around you, you’ll learn to relate to people more easily. In Europe, you’ll find all types of people who speak multiple languages and have varied lifestyles from what you do. With travel, you’ll connect with these people and gain a better understanding of them and their lives. With this understanding, you’ll have compassion for their struggles, even if these troubles are unlike your own.

LEARN TO ADAPT TO CHANGES Traveling, especially in a place like Europe, involves willingness to adapt to change. When you take a big trip, issues can arise that change your plans or interpret your schedule, so it’s important that you know how to adjust. Traveling can make you more laid back, so you can roll with the punches when something unexpected happens.

With traveling, you become even more

independent, especially if you travel alone.

People often backpack across Europe,

staying in small hostels located in cities.

When you travel with other people, there’s

plenty of ideas bouncing around on what

to do, where to go, and how to fix any

problems, but when you’re solo all of the

pressure is on you. By planning a trip on

your own and getting that travel

experience, your confidence will

significantly increase and you’ll feel alright

doing anything on your own.

BECOME MORE

INDEPENDENT

Be present in the moment Travel teaches you to be present in the moment.

Though you might want to constantly snap pictures and text your friends about what you’re seeing, the best attitude to have is one where you

take time to soak in what’s happening around you. This attitude can travel home with you and help

you out even when you’re not traveling.
