In the early days, travelling to a far distant land was challenging for the people. Not only did travel consume enormous amount of time but also a huge amount of money. Hence, people of the previous generation were reluctant to travel. Whereas, in today's world, even travelling across the globe has become a cake walk. With the advancement in technologies, people these days are flying across the continents. In general, people think that travelling changes their perception about the world.

Technological development in terms of transport and personal gadgets plays a vital role in travelling. Major population around the world is believed to posses the electronic gadgets which make the access to travelling easy. People nowadays live in a hectic environment that harms their physical as well as mental well-being. In order to keep themselves off the routine schedule, many choose vacations in terms of travelling. In addition to that, the advertisements circulated on the social platform play an important role in the promotion of travel destinations. Having influenced by the advertisements, adventure lovers choose to explore off the beaten paths around the world.

People these days are curious to encounter an experience unlike their routine and are travelling across the globe to pursue such experiences. Education has planted a seed of exploration in every individual. With the thirst to witness the surreal beauty of nature and world, people are travelling across the globe. People choose different modes of transportation to accomplish their strategies such as airways, roadways and water ways. Another group of people choose hiking and hitch hiking as the media to transport themselves from one region to the other.

With the diverse exposure to external world, people have gained the adrenaline rush to experience everything that they had come across on the internet. Despite being stuck with particular cultural and traditional practices, people are in search of exploring different traditions around the world which has given a drastic rise in scope to the travel industry. Similarly, food items prepared around the world differ with respect to the region that they are being prepared. To satisfy the taste buds, foodies around the world do carry themselves to different regions around the world and they do satisfy their taste buds.

In one of the recent researches, it is identified that travelling to new places creates a sense of alertness in an individual. When an individual visits a new place, he tends to be receptive even to most of the minor details which in turn would help in the self development of an individual. In addition to that,when a person does travel to new places he is made to meet different people who would eventually provide that person a new perspective about humanity as well as hospitality. It also gives an individual the perspective to view and equally respect the traditions and beliefs followed around the world. Travelling does not only mean the exploration of the external but the internal world of an individual to know who he really is and what his potentials are.

We travel not to escape life, but for life not to escape us
