Traveling has always been a hobby for us human beings, ancient years ago humans used to travel, some of them used to explore new continents, new lands, and new countries as the explorer Mr. Columbus who discovered the Americas and the Dutch explorer Willem Janszoon who discovered Australia, and some of them used to travel the globe to bring culture, traditions, goods, Civilizations, habits, food and trading to their own countries and spent their whole life traveling the world to discover how different people lives like ibn battuta and marco polo.

Years ago, traveling has been rapidly developing for centuries from people used to travel using animals like horses and camels to them using cars and airplanes. The growth of the traveling industry has not just affected the frequent travelers by making their trips easy and smooth, but also affected the global trade as it made transferring goods Much faster and easier which led to the economic growth that we are facing nowadays in our developed nations.

Traveling nowadays is not just for business or trading as it used to be in the past, people could travel today for very different reasons, some of them are seeking education in a different country, some of them are going to find a treatment in another place, and a different group of people needed a break from their jobs so they are taking a vacation whether it’s in their own country or overseas, and for other people traveling is just a way of living and a lifestyle for them, they are just off the road moving from a country to country and a continent to continent to discover how different people from different backgrounds are living.

They say traveling has seven benefits, but I say it has much more to offer, and for me the biggest benefit is that traveling allows you to discover your inner self, as it puts you in different situations out of your comfort zone, like being in a different country away from your friends, family, and home, that of course will make you discover a New side your personality that you never knew, and will let you know the abilities you truly have and what you want in life.
