Why do we travel? Travel broadens the mind, inviting us to step outside our routine, and see the world with fresh eyes. It teaches humility and open-mindedness, as cultures differ and common ground gleams in places that are totally new to us. The food, the infrastructure, the environment become teachers, shaping empathy and curiousity. Journeys inspire resilience, and teach us how to navigate airports, how to be patient with communication, and how to adapt new customs. When we return, we carry new stories; we carry a renewed sense of gratitude, and a load of light- hearted reminders that tell us that awesome experiences are everywhere, and that every road is a new learning experience. Here's a travel adventure you might want to try: I Survived Mt Apo.
