From an early age, I've been brought up travelling a ton, whether it was just to the east coast shore or across the world. Most people have some type of drive to go out and experience the world, but some don't. For me, seeing a new culture is the best thing ever. I love getting involved in a culture halfway across the country or even somewhere just hours from my home. Every place is unique and experiencing these places while you're young has its many benefits.

1. While jet lag is still a thing, it's much easier and faster to overcome when you're young.

Yes, whenever there's any type of time change, there will be some type of jet lag. We all have experienced it if we've travelled somewhere 6+ hours ahead or behind. When you're young, the jet lag seems to almost disappear and you can push yourself through the day because you're just that determined to see the place you just arrived to.

2. You have all the energy in the world.

You have the ability to hit the ground running from the second you step off that airplane of out of that car. You take the city by storm and start visiting those places you've been craving to visit for so long right away. Even when you're tired, you still manage to run yourself for a solid 12 hours without dying. You go go go all day long to make sure everything you want to do has a time and place.

3. Friends are always willing to tag along.

When you travel when you're young, especially while you're in college, breaks tend to match up with your friends which means you always have a travelling partner. There's always a friend that has been dying to see that same place you have, and decides to tag along. It makes for a much more social and special trip.

4. Adventure is around every corner, and you usually tend to take it.

When you're young, the thought of backpacking through hostels and getting to see twenty cities rather than one city for four times the money usually seems more appealing. Now I'm not saying that is always the case, cause I can sometimes go for a nice 5 star resort but getting to experience the world for cheap strikes my attention. There's also so many things to do wherever you travel designated specifically for younger people so it makes for such a fun atmosphere, and you tend to gravitate towards these events or activities when you're younger.

5. All the food you're eating somehow doesn't show five seconds after eating it.

You have every option to eat three kielbasa sandwiches while you're in Poland. Why? Because you a) don't care if you gain the weight cause you can burn it off easily or b) it just doesn't seem to appear on your body which is a blessing. When you're young and your metabolism is at its best, you don't care what exotic foods you're eating as long as you get to try them in the first place. What's going to a unique place without trying it's food?
