                           Travel - the aesthetic value for life

        Travels turn knowledge into experience. Travelling is an appealing experience.Travelling means in simple terms, reaching to different places and exploring them to the fullest for various purposes. Think of a person who has actually visited Taj Mahal and a person who has only read about it. The person who has visited, gets to learn more and understand the actual beauty of this monument. So this is the difference between practical knowledge you obtain by feeling the whole essence of it which lets you experience the visual treat and a very much common knowledge you obtain from books and pictures.
      So travelling plays a very important role in every ones life as it educates you about wide varieties of cultures in the world, lets you meet different people from different customs, religion, nationality, lets you understand the mindsets and mentalities of people all around the world. When you travel, you will recognize the amazing creation called nature. We can learn a lot by exploring this wonderful creation.
      Travelling is a better teacher than books. Visiting a monument or a place featuring a different culture fetches you a more long lasting and practical knowledge when compared to just reading or watching a video of the same. This is because going to that place leaves a memorable impact which stays in your mind in a more lucid manner. So travelling gives you an opportunity for acquiring practical knowledge of ideas around the world. It is essential for an overall growth of mind in various fields. Moving to different places keeps your mental health in a balanced state for longer amount of time.
         Knowledge obtained through travelling is perfect, practical and permanent. The one who has not travelled and explored is more or less self centered. Travelling helps you to develop a new vision of life, It turns you up into a more broad minded person. Educational tours and learning while travelling programs would bring students around the globe together which enables them to acquire lots of information by just interacting among themselves.
           India being a very well diversified country, comprises of mixture of people of different cultures, lifestyles, languages, food habits and so on which will fetch you lots of learnings about what our country is.
            People consider travelling as one's personal interests. I would like to share two of my learnings in regards to travelling:
* to be open minded about people and their culture.
* what we obtain from travelling are all lifetime experiences which you will cherish for the rest of your life.
              To add upon, travelling is one of the most delightful experience to mankind. It kind of gives you a break from one's daily stress-filled routine life that every person undergoes. It's an ideal way to leave your current life behind to pursue a more relaxing or adventurous break. Experiences speak more than two dimensional pictures in books.
              Travelling helps you connect to people, increase your profile and also adds on to your professional developments. Travelling brings us closer to nature. We can enjoy the beauty of snow-clad mountains, huge waterfall, forests, seas, and the rising an setting of the sun. Travelling exposes us to different weather condition also. Tourism also serves as an important source of income to the country hence thereby promotes trade and commerce.    
               Socio-anthropological studies is not complete only through books. It is to be accomplished by the way of proper travelling practices. Travelling sharpens the merits of most youngsters. Other reasons for travelling would be for adventure, for pilgrimage, for sight-seeing, for trade, or for conquering unknown lands.
                  When we see new places, we get immense pleasure. Travelling with friends and family creates memories for lifetime. It also widens our perspective. New experiences increase our resourcefulness. Another great benefit is the relaxation we get. The joy and pleasure we get from travelling is truly immeasurable.
                  I finally conclude by a famous quote,

" Travelling in a younger sort is a part of education; in the older, a part of experience."
