Tips for you

  1. you widen your knowledge and get to know new places

  2. because touring another continent is different and gives unique experiences that really can’t be experienced in the US, plus its really fun. Also you learn about so many different cultures

  3. As a person who benefited from travel while in the military, I encourage everyone to visit as many countries as they can afford to. The Benefit of actually experiencing another culture is in-measurable.

  4. I started going to Europe when I was 14, and even if you go for just a week, it changes your life. You are exposed to people and issues that you will not see in the US. For example, as a teenager in Europe, I saw 200-mph trains and wondered why we would couldn’t have that in the US. Likewise, in some countries, I saw a welfare state that encourages large-scale unemployment, and I was glad that didn’t really exist back in the States.

    Travel will improve you. Have fun on your trip.

  5. the reason why traveling is good for anyone is that you get out of your comfort-zone. At home you know everything, food tastes the same and most people never do anything out of their normal routine.

    Especially if you are young you will be fascinated by everything you will see in another country, you will enjoy meeting all kind of different people, you will taste things that you can never taste at home, and most likely – wherever you go – you will meet people that want to take advantage of you because you are a tourist. If you travel alone you will even have to learn how to deal with being completely dependent on yourself and this will boost your self esteem.

    Important when you travel is that you make sure that you get exposed to all this. Touring with a tour guide on a contiki bus, won’t be the same as struggling with train connections, finding accommodation by yourself etc. However, if you feel more confident on a tour, don’t see this as less good travel. Anything is better than waking up when you are 60 and realizing that the only thing you’ve seen is your own little village.

  6. traveling is good for EVERYONE because it broadens a persons horizens, teaches them of the many ways to live besides their own, and can be even life changing or goal setting for them.

    and yes, europe is a beautiful place that can offer a person so much knowledge :)

  7. Because it gives young people the confidence to deal with a range of situations no matter where they are. They get to experience different cultures which will allow them to develop their own life experience for the future.. It allows gives them an inside look into how other cultures operate in differentiation from there own. I think a young person would benefit from seeing Europe and all the culture Europe has to offer and give them a broad knowledge of whats out there.
