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.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!

There is nothing quite like family.

Family is kinda like that one ex that you always find yourself running back to (except without all the regret and the angsty breakup texts that come along with it).
