Travel shows you your inner self.

by Jessica White

I think traveling teaches you so many things, so much more than the usual and expected. It teaches you how strong you truly are physically, how much you are able to endure by finishing that walking tour even though you’ve already walked for miles and are extremely jet lagged and beyond exhausted. I've learned I’m capable of a lot more than I ever imagined. It teaches me how strong I am mentally through such a vast array of things, but also how much more opportunity there is to learn.
Travel taught me about my inner self, by showing me my truest desires, and helped me to understand that buzzing feeling in my soul isn’t anxiety but a dire need to wander and explore. Travel helped me to come out of a shell and how to be comfortable just being me in my truest form. Travel isn’t just wonderful for memories, experiences, or learning about new cultures; its wonderful because it teaches you about YOURSELF!

This is Marvelous!
by: Janees

Totally relate.That travel energy, the explosion of gratitude and spontaneity in my travels all go to remind me how much joy mediocrity hides. Excellence always begets miraculous and the Soul always gets what it yearns for if only we put in the effort and Align.

So True!
by: Nadya

When I finally got out on my own, just me, my backpack and a trail, I finally started to learn about who I am. This article's title says it all. Thank you!

Love it!

As I'm reading your comment, I catch myself feeling lit up with joy, because I can relate. There's hardly anything makes me feel more complete than the sensation of feeling alive which comes from self-acceptance and expansion of awareness.
This paragraph you wrote drives this home:
Travel "...helped me to understand that buzzing feeling in my soul isn’t anxiety but a dire need to wander and explore. Travel helped me to come out of a shell and how to be comfortable just being me in my truest form."
Thank you!
