Emerging Travel Trends
Have you ever wondered while sitting at your office, what are your habits and which of them you can never give up? If one of those is travelling, then congratulations you have this uncured addiction and nothing can quench your thirst other than a plane ticket.
The great news is that 2020 will be the year of travel, since travel costs are significantly decreasing, while travel demand is on the rise.
Most airlines have declared plans to decrease their costs in an attempt to boost the travel industry and increase revenue to all parties. Thanks to modern technologies, all of these strategies can be implemented successfully and the results are emerging relatively quickly.
The Cure is the Cause Itself
Most people, if not everyone who experiences travel for the first time develop a sense of connection to this strange phenomenon. A weird awakening occurs that shakes your whole being and you start seeing new things you felt you have been connected to somewhere else via some means.
When you visit a new place and see different cultures, you can never forget this experience. It becomes part of your identity and crawls into your DNA to form a complete new person.
With each new place comes a new DNA fragment. This creates an updated identity for yourself and it fuels up the addiction, and the case becomes more serious but for the good of mankind. Hence if the addiction is only solved by the cause, then let’s travel!
A Self Discovery or a Destination Exploring
Travel is a self discovery before being a destination discovery. When we first lay foot on a new soil, we gain strange energy that connects us with our inner selves. We start seeing things more clearly and understanding better the world around us. This strange energy is self discovery which we never experience while sitting in our comfort zone.
It is this force that challenges us to take action, hear new opinions, reconsider our thoughts and values, remove our prejudices and gain new ideas that will change our lives forever.
The notion of I am right and you’re wrong starts slowly to dwindle, and we become more receptive of new ideas that we would have never considered otherwise
Travel Has a Time Dimension
When travelling physically to a new place, we are simultaneously taking a trip back in time and seeing the thousands of years of history.
When we look down, and see the ground were’re standing on, we cannot help but think of the many great people who have set foot right there in our place.
Those who have initiated ideas that changed the course of our history. Those who have sacrificed themselves in the quest of philosophy, science, or even military. We cannot help but become part of this larger cycle of creation that is infinite and is ever evolving and enlarging.
“Travel makes one modest. You see what a tiny place you occupy in the world.” – Gustav Flaubert.
Travel and the Pandora Box
Once we travel and experience this euphoric pleasure, it is very hard to stop it, and this is the point where we open the Pandora Box and we regret….. why we haven’t opened it earlier.
It is impossible to deny the effect of this box. After coming back home, we constantly see flashes of the sky, nature, roads, smiles, trains, buses, other tourists and many other fragments of the trip that will make us addicted for more.
They once asked the candle: “Why you burn yourself for the sake of others?”, the candle replied “It’s a pleasure only a candle can understand”.
Travelling is a pleasure, only a real traveller can understand….
