5 Reasons To Go To Another Country

If traveling to a certain country is your dream, do it. All the great things that you experience from traveling outweigh the possible bad things, like fear of flying, that could prevent you from going. Save up your money and make plans so you can travel ASAP. It's honestly something you won't regret. In case you want to go somewhere but have things holding you back, here are some reasons to just go ahead and do it.

1) The things you will see are worth the money.

Money is a huge factor in determining if you can travel or not. If you can work hard and save your money, you will have a major reward. Ireland is the most beautiful place I have ever been to. Places like the Eiffel Tower and London Eye are awesome, but even if you go to a place that just has beautiful scenery it will be worth the money. Even countries that are really poor, like Honduras, can still be beautiful as well as open your eyes to other countries' problems that you might not have really understood without going there. No matter what, you will get to see and experience things you wouldn't get to without going there yourself.

2) You will meet amazing people.

On my first trip to a foreign country, I travelled with a group of amazing people, and many of them were people I didn't know before the trip. I made great friends and experienced such beautiful things with them, which made it even better. If you take time talking to tour guides and people you meet while traveling, you will learn a lot of things and appreciate the country you are visiting even more.

3) You will leave a different person.

When I got back from visiting Europe, I felt like a different person. I had learned so much, and I fell in love with the countries I visited. Traveling made me appreciate what I have and gave me the desire to travel more and to do more with my life.

4) You will be able to try new things.

If you want to travel because you want to experience something new, then you definitely will be satisfied. Each country and city has something new to offer and it's all different than what we are used to in America. You will be able to try new food, learn new words, and so much more.

5) You will never want to stop.

Ever since I went on my first trip out of the United States I have never wanted to stop. I want to travel everywhere and see everything. While some people may think this is more of a bad thing, I think it's good. Traveling is such an amazing experience, and you get so many things out of it. I'd rather have the desire to see the world and do it than just want to sit at home.

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.
