The Importance of Embracing New Environments
When we travel, we have the opportunity to step outside of our comfort zones and experience life in a childlike, open-minded way. Despite our travel experience, the excitement of visiting a new place never truly fades. Cultural shock is a real anxiety that we must overcome to fully enjoy cross-cultural travel. Traveling can bring out our inner child and attract interest and sympathy from the locals. While venturing off the beaten path is encouraged, there is also value in exploring the well-known tourist attractions. It is important to find a balance and give ourselves permission to enjoy all aspects of a destination.
