With traveling, it's sometimes hard to know where you want to go or who you want to visit. Even when you want to go out of the country you don't know where you want to go. If you have family, then it all pans out in the end, and here's why.

1. You have your own personal translator.

Since you won't know every word they're saying.

2. When they come to America, you hear such crazy stories and really see how different life is overseas.

3. You learn about different lifestyles.

If one lifestyle isn't enough or you ever wanted to learn about another, going to your relative's country will do the trick.

4. You automatically have somewhere to stay when you travel overseas.

What's better than that?

5.You’ll have people that understand you in another country.

Okay, maybe that's better than the previous reason...

6.You’ll always have a reason to travel out of the country.

Who doesn't love traveling, and family?

7. You have your own personal tour guide.

Since you obviously won't know where you're going.

8. They can recommend great places to eat and visit.

That's mostly when you've known your way around after awhile

9. No need to pay for a rental car, you’ve also got your personal driver.

And you even get a break from driving!

10. Your relatives introduce you to their friends and you become friends with them, which means more reasons to visit.

Whether you are distant cousins or blood related, the family is family and they know you and understand you better than anyone. Visiting family makes it even more exciting to go but even harder to leave. The memories you make will create amazing stories to tell your family, friends, kids and grandkids and maybe even great grand-kids! Their way of living, even their styles in clothing are so much different. All designer named brands since foreign countries be they all originate. Everyone is always so elegant and dressed up; especially in Europe. Always in such clean, neat and "fancy" as us Americans would consider it.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?
