Travel - Why I Love It!

November 15, 2012

“Travel sets my soul on fire and fuels my creativity. It is one of the most gratifying experiences in my life!”

For years people have asked me why I love to travel. With a passion for boutique hotels bordering on obsession, a carefully cultivated palate, and an incurable case of wanderlust, the list is endless. But what I love most about travel is something much more personal - the awakening that takes place deep within me – the ability to experience life with childlike wonder. To find myself magically lost in a moment of discovery, as I touch, smell, taste and see things as if for the very first time. Each experience gifting me with a new found vigor.

Travel awakens the soul and stirs the senses. It forces you to dig deep into your personal belief system, to step outside the box and see the world in a whole new light. There is a shift that takes place deep within, an inner journey through the outer world.

In many ways, travel frees you. It rids you of narrow-mindedness and opens you up to new passions and possibilities. Travel keeps you young. It sets your soul on fire and fuels your creativity. It is one of the most gratifying experiences in life and I am thankful for the profound changes and emotions travel has evoked in me.

Now ask yourself, what do you like about travel?
