What I hope to take away from this trip
My biggest hope of this whole journey is that I learn something new about myself. One must experience new things in order to grow, that is the meaning of life. Going on vacation is not just an outlet for relaxation, it also allows us to take a step away from our everyday life and to see it from a different perspective. From there we may open our eyes to possibilities that may never have crossed our minds before. The world is so vast, with so many people living so many different ways of life. Tourism allows us to experience these differences which in turn might help us to see what is truly important in what we value as being human.
