Did you suddenly got bitten by the travel bug? Because, same. It’s on my bucket list to travel more countries than my dad, and let me tell, he has been almost in every country. When you grow up in a family where traveling around the world is integrated, then you just know is how you will spend your years.
Travel quotes are the best because they keep you motivated to go to different places or to go and discover new destinations. They also encourage you to step outside your comfort zone, maybe to start your first solo trip? or to go somewhere none of your friends have gone before.
Either way, I just love them, not only because of the reasons I wrote before but also because they let you know there’s a world outside and that somewhere else things are done in a totally different way. There’s so much to learn!
