Traveling to a popular place
It doesn't matter
whether you live in a modern, advanced, big, or a small town, there
always comes a time when you get tired and bored of seeing the same
thing from your window, walking the same streets, and seeing the same
people. That's why it is important to travel, because aside from
developing your inner, cultural world, traveling offers you what your
brain desires the most: the change of atmosphere, a new scenery, and
escaping from the typical day-to-day routine.
In fact, famous Latin philosopher Saint Augustine once said:“The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page.”
