Do you think that travel is the greatest form of education and why?

Yes I do. The only way I feel that some one can understand and learn, is the experience of hands on. You have to travel to where ever it is to do so. Short or far.

YES !

Traveling is a lot - experience, adventures, people, cultures; this is the passion for life,the excitement of discover.Namely to go higher, go further, go deeper, do the impossible.
One great Polish traveler said that you could loose everything but nobody will take away what you saw and what you experienced.

I totally agree

The world is like a book. Those who don’t travel only read one page.

The world is the biggest classroom full of rich tapestries...I left school at only 14 but now have three degrees through travelling.

and they all sing with you?




sorry I couldn't resist.

Thats excellent tho!

Oo I like that.. that's goood.

And yet, of course there is an enormous percent of the population would like to travel but is out of funds.I emphasize that not everybody can bring about his or her dreams.

Yes thats true...I thought about that for about five minutes and went anyway...In 25 years of continuos travelling I have often slept on the side of the road, went hungry, cold, did hard work for a meagre salary and have had more blisters than skin...but I would never regret one moment..

i remember my african colleague, very "hurt" by the relatioships between his country and some countries of the EU and he said he was just here to get the diploma and go, he was not worried on interacting. I told him he was so wrong, that he should interact in order to understand their spirit, way of thinking and approaching the issues involved so he could be a better judge and deal with any of the parties in a comfortable way. You must know the other party well in order to make a great deal.

Being impartial to the world most of the time helps because you absorve the good and bad things about all parties and you are able to balance things right. That's what we call - being open minded: someone who is flexible towards other realities. Travelling defenitely is the key to that flexibility. And being someone who is ready to smile when being approached by anyone, makes us beautiful and keeps the world peaceful

Well said

Well, ther is a great deal of benefits of every trip. Its necessary to highlight the opportunity to exchange experience, to immerse in one different culture.Furthermore people who spend their life traveling are always well –informed and men of great erudition.

And that is significant to me.

I have travelled quite a bit within the country and loved it !!!

Nothing better than experiencing for yourself wrt. people , their culture and nature's beauty !!

I do , I had some pretty good road trips many moons ago . And I learned two valuable lessons on one trip .

1 ) We had this drunk guy in the car who decided to grab the wheel and yank on it unexpectedly , as that could cause death . The guy shocked us all to hell over that trip .
2) Same trip , we decided to go from Kingston to Ottawa for a coffee ,
and the driver decided to play a trick on this one guy . As this girl was coming out of the restaurant , he took off around the corner and left her wondering if she was gonna be stuck there with no way home . The next time we stopped , he done the same thing with another guy and then completely took off for a half hour leaving the guy standing on the side of the road with a " where you going look ?? " , eventually he did return to get him though and lets say that the guy wasn't a happy camper after that . The next time we stopped I was afraid to take that chance only he knew he would have his lights punched out from my oldest brother if he did , good thing he promised he would try it with me . We did have a good laugh over it .

To travel is to learn about different cultures different ways of life.

I do think that the more one travels the more tolerent of ppl you become, You see and experience more so become more adaptable.
